Lux Eterna: September 2011
http://avallak.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Looking for a little light in the darkness. Thursday, September 8, 2011. This blog has been quite dormant lately. I would apologize, but that seems rather pointless as it's my blog and I can do whatever I want with it (nyeh! After a week of this, I called my doctor. He ran some tests and the only thing that came back was an indicator for an autoimmune disorder ( recently made famous by Venus Williams. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Lux Eterna: February 2010
http://avallak.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Looking for a little light in the darkness. Tuesday, February 9, 2010. 4 of 5 stars. I was tempted to give this one 5 stars, but there were still a few things that held me back. I think I was most excited to finally get closure on most of the annoying side plots that just seemed to drag on needlessly, and to see some positive movement in the main plotlines. As far as Sanderson's style in taking over for Jordan, I think it was a very good choice. It seemed to me that having a new writer helped bring s...

Lux Eterna: August 2009

Looking for a little light in the darkness. Monday, August 31, 2009. She was quite the unpleasantest person we ever had the misfortune of meeting. No one knew why she was so, though frankly none cared too much. Perhaps that explains everything. Their clamorous cheers fell hollow on his ears. There was a traitor in their midst. Let them celebrate. He must find the one who would betray them all. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Little bit'a everything, whole lotta nuttin. A letter to my new workout instructor.

Lux Eterna: June 2009
http://avallak.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Looking for a little light in the darkness. Thursday, June 25, 2009. Less than meets the eye. I just saw the laziest movie I have seen in a long time. Not that I was expecting anything more than a fun action flick, but this was the perfect example of why so many sequels go bad. Transformers 2 had all the incredible special effects and mayhem you would expect from a summer blockbuster, but the producers should be ashamed of their pathetic effort in filmmaking. Friday, June 5, 2009. Less than meets the eye.

Lux Eterna: June 2015
http://avallak.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Looking for a little light in the darkness. Thursday, June 18, 2015. Of Sowing and Reaping. Or Not. For the first time since moving into this house over 7 years ago, our garden box has failed. That's not to say we have had a bountiful harvest each of the previous summers, but that's not the fault of our garden box, just our lack of planting at times. We did, after all, have four children under the age of four at one point in time. And after all that work? What did we do wrong? Did we not water enough?

Looking for a little light in the darkness. Monday, February 23, 2009. Have you ever had so many ideas in your head you don't know where to start? There are so many things rolling around in my brain right now. New ideas for music. Plans for decorating our house. Visions for ministry. Story lines for scripts. It's all getting a bit jumbled and overwhelming. Or maybe I'll wait 'til tomorrow. Friday, February 13, 2009. Why do we hate mystery? I'm a big Star Wars. Doesn't Survivor already do that? It's the s...

Lux Eterna: May 2009
http://avallak.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Looking for a little light in the darkness. Sunday, May 24, 2009. I think what left me feeling less than satisfied was a certain pet-peeve of mine when it comes to film distributors. Have you ever watched a preview and thought, "Well, I guess I don't need to watch that movie now," because you just saw everything in the trailer? Anyhoo, just some thoughts. And, of course, an obligatory metal head. Wednesday, May 20, 2009. What an amazing God we have! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Lux Eterna: October 2013
http://avallak.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Looking for a little light in the darkness. Thursday, October 10, 2013. Why did he give me this gift? It was such a wonderful thing, when he handed it to me, all wrapped in a bow bigger than my head, its beautiful, shimmering shell folded so neatly together, the etched scrollwork dancing in the light, drawing the eye ever further along each intricate detail. I was so absorbed, I barely registered his instructions. That's all fine and good. How clever he must think me! I waited for the machine to reach on...

Lux Eterna: July 2010
http://avallak.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Looking for a little light in the darkness. Saturday, July 24, 2010. This does not, however, mean that I do not feel emotions. I actually feel them very deeply, but often do not let them show until they overwhelm me. At those times, you can ask my family how emotionally reserved I am and get a very different response. Monday, July 19, 2010. As I was driving to a meeting today listening to the local classical radio station, I heard a little blurb about a classical sing-a-long concert. The announcer me...
