This hour I tell things in confidence, I might not tell everybody, but I will tell you". Tuesday, May 29, 2012. I want to be connected. 8220;Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.”. Are yours and mine the same? I hope they are. I really do. Your sunglasses keep me out, and your cell phone is stealing your attention, and you look at the ground the moment I look for your eyes. I’m going to be so bold as to say that you are avoiding me. And I avoid you too. So, I say “hi. Rewrite: I star...

Writing a Beautiful Story. Sunday, July 21, 2013. Writing a Beautiful Story. Last Thursday, I drove three hours from my hometown to Santa Rosa Beach to visit my oldest brother, sister-in-law, and their two children. Driving down mostly back roads in the rain, I listened to two podcast by Donald Miller, writer of. Blue Like Jazz, Through Painted Deserts,. A Million Miles in a Thousand Years. Maybe he's written more, but those are the three that I am most familiar with, though I haven't read. I can't.i...

Writing a Beautiful Story. Saturday, November 16, 2013. In Sickness and In Health". The irony of working in places like hospitals and clinics is that as you attempt to make people better and healthier, you end up getting sick. I've been more sick over three months than I've been in the past 5-6 years. only Irony would find this amusing. I won’t complain too much, however, because as I am momentarily married to my bed, I have all the time in the world- or until Tuesday- to write. Joy. I’m very new t...

Writing a Beautiful Story. Wednesday, September 4, 2013. Orientation in a nutshell: "what have I done to myself? No joke, I'm pretty sure I told that to the people who called Monday afternoon. Hey Martha Lee Anne, how did it go? Long pause as I tried to use my squishy brain, "what have I done to myself? She's right, it only takes knowing the grid to know Birmingham, but I still think Birmingham should have a sign that says, "welcome hamsters.". Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

This hour I tell things in confidence, I might not tell everybody, but I will tell you". Friday, November 30, 2012. Sometimes I like getting lost in my car on a street I'm supposed to know. When the signs and houses have changed, but I feel the same, in a good way. Other times I like when I'm so different, it seems appropriate to meet the street I walked on with bare feet as a kid. Wednesday, November 14, 2012. And in that moment, I swear we were infinite". Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

This hour I tell things in confidence, I might not tell everybody, but I will tell you". Sunday, November 30, 2014. What's all this fuss over love? I've discovered Andrew Belle's album. There's an idea that's been floating in my mind. It's been floating there since 2010. What's all this fuss about love? We write about it. Sing about it. Crave words and movies and sentences about it. We cry over it. Pray for it. Die for it. Get lost looking for it. Why, when talking to my future husband, did love elude me?

This hour I tell things in confidence, I might not tell everybody, but I will tell you". Tuesday, January 15, 2013. Marriage is about Loving Burnt Cookies. 8220;come to the dark side, we have (burnt) cookies”. Let me go ahead and say this. I’m not a red eyed, fanged feminatzi or anything. They don’t have the prettiest cookies, but the upsides of the dark side are pretty good. I’m talking about being a skeptic. The skeptic of marriage. 8220;It wasn’t only wickedness and scheming that made people unh...

This hour I tell things in confidence, I might not tell everybody, but I will tell you". Monday, March 31, 2014. Jesus loves the Rejects. Jesus Loves the Rejects. What is a reject? 8220;A person or thing dismissed as failing to meet standards or satisfy tastes”. So, I’m going to say this one thing, and I hope you’ll grasp it. There is no such thing as a reject in the eyes of God, because God is the creator of every culture, geographical location, and people group…and here’s th...God isn’t intereste...

Brave Little Toaster: Home Sweet

This hour I tell things in confidence, I might not tell everybody, but I will tell you". Saturday, September 20, 2014. God, I missed Alabama. I drove the black 99’ Civic with two doors and lousy break lights to the hanger. The windows were down, the sunroof was back, and I let my wet hair whip this way and that while I listened to “Brown Sugar” and ”Start Me Up” by the Rolling Stones. Who knew overalls could look so good? I laughed leaning out of the driver’s window when I turned onto the dirt road...
