funeral - freekee thoughts
http://low-delta.livejournal.com/1578103.html
Jun 8th, 2015 at 11:31 PM. This afternoon we went to the funeral of my stepmother's mother. Betty had surgery recently, but then decided she didn't want to hang around anymore. She could no longer swallow, and didn't want a feeding tube. She had been in a hospice room next door to Jeff's room. When we got home, Jeff's obituary had been published. His funeral is on Thursday.

Early Modern Mom: March 2011
http://earlymodernmom.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
We live large. Practically. Thursday, March 17, 2011. An Update from San Antonio. Burgundy, Holden and I are in San Antonio, visiting the most awesome sister-in-law and brother in the universe. We drove over here Wednesday evening, and we're leaving Sunday. Burgundy competed in science fair again this year with wondrous results. She placed 4th in her school for health and medicine, and she placed 2nd in the district; she'll go to the Houston-wide science fair in April now. Links to this post. Part-time e...

Early Modern Mom: August 2012
http://earlymodernmom.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
We live large. Practically. Sunday, August 19, 2012. With Ruby's birth, I leveled up to a whole new playing field of chaos. I thought I knew exhaustion; I was a fool. Starting next week, I'll be trying it out:. I'll get out of bed by 6 AM. Burgundy has to leave for school by 6:30 in just one more week, so this is necessary in the long run anyway. I'll clean the kitchen. Once Holden is playing and Ruby's been fed, I'll run through my standby daily chores:. Spend two minutes on a crap-magnet. Took Burgundy...

Early Modern Mom: Half-Baked Housework
http://earlymodernmom.blogspot.com/2012/08/half-baked-housework.html
We live large. Practically. Friday, August 10, 2012. I posted about this a couple of years ago, but I need reminding every now and then. Half-done housework that covers everything works better than perfectly thorough housework done in one tiny spot. Yes, I'm a perfectionist. A few years ago, I had something of an epiphany: I don't have to be a perfect perfectionist. If I redefine "perfect," I can do this without running myself ragged or guilting myself into craziness. Me about this site and now this time...

Early Modern Mom: Busy Mama
http://earlymodernmom.blogspot.com/2012/08/busy-mama.html
We live large. Practically. Wednesday, August 8, 2012. I recently wrote a course description for a home school writing class I hope to teach this fall. In the description, I indicated that students must keep a journal for class, and then I pointed them to this one, explaining that I will keep a journal for class, too. Therefore, here I am again. I've been super crafty this year. I made about half a sweater, two baby layettes, two knitted Llama Llama. Dolls, a couple of lined, zippered pouches. I haven't ...

Early Modern Mom: September 2012
http://earlymodernmom.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
We live large. Practically. Saturday, September 22, 2012. With Mark losing his job, the post-partum hair loss finally happening, and Burgundy in her Senior year, I feel like I should be falling apart. The storyline of my life feels Very Dramatic, and I can't help wondering what's wrong with me. The fact of the matter is that while I have my moments of panic and doubt, I'm really okay. Feel it. Instead, I feel very confident that God is doing something big and weird and a little scary in our lives. After ...
