Sylvia Basham: May 2009
http://sylviabasham.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 17, 2009. Backwards Feet in a Bathroom Stall. So I was in a huge hurry with many errands to run. Stood in the long line to return things at WalMart, then parked my cart by the benches outside the public restrooms and zipped in, heading as I always do to the last stall. Aaah, two glasses of sweet-and-low tea for lunch didn't bother me anymore. The bathroom was empty as I entered, but as I was occupying the last stall, someone came in to the stall next to me. I got a little nervous. Loud laught...

Sylvia Basham: Reasonably Attainable
http://sylviabasham.blogspot.com/2012/01/reasonably-attainable.html
Thursday, January 5, 2012. Ew Year’s Resolutions because well, you know, they’re often pretty lofty and I set myself up for failure. I don’t like failure. So I’ve come to the conclusion that any goals I set must be reasonably attainable. For instance, I will not set a goal of running four marathons this year because that would require, oh, what’s the word…. exercise! There I said it! Quick, somebody go get me a piece of chocolate to wash my mouth out with. O have some type of goals. So I set some goals.

Sylvia Basham: April 2009
http://sylviabasham.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Wednesday, April 29, 2009. Yep Dena, they died. You know how you sometimes only have so much money and can only buy so many batteries, then you must choose which items get the batteries? Which ones can you not do without? I guess in life it’s called priorities or balance, but whatever it is, that’s what I’ve had to do these past couple of months. I’ve had to decide where to put my time and energy because I only had so much to disperse. The prognosis is excellent as the doctor proclaimed hers a “ver...

Sylvia Basham: January 2010
http://sylviabasham.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 10, 2010. Long, frigid nights dissolve into gray days. Seemingly lifeless, ebony trees etch a silhouette against the ashen sky while icy air hopelessly struggles to move that which won’t budge. Sparse and brown, the frozen grass crunches to the breaking point as the heavy boots descend time and again. The outlook is bleak. January comes and is here to stay. My joy is not predicated upon nor negated by my circumstances or surroundings. My joy comes from That which is within. May 2, 2010.

Sylvia Basham: September 2009
http://sylviabasham.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Friday, September 18, 2009. Looks Like We Get to Keep the Change. May as well embrace change. That's seems to be the only constant. The next change at our house: Candace is leaving in six days (Sept. 24) continuing on a spiritual journey of a lifetime. She'll be attending University of the Nations for a YWAM DTS (Youth With A Mission Discipleship Training School.). Seasons come and go, things keep changing. But there is a Constant. And I'm so glad, because I will need that as the change keeps coming!

Sylvia Basham: August 2009
http://sylviabasham.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 21, 2009. My summer has been spent neck-deep in wedding preparations. So many things to look at. So many errands to run. So many decisions to make. The preparations for the Wedding Day were all-consuming! I awoke most mornings between 5.30 am and 6.00 am without an alarm clock, eyes wide open, mind racing, feet jumping out of bed ready to get started with my day. Invitations to send out…. Eight bridesmaids dresses to make…. Tiniest details to attend to…. Flowers to pick out…. Am I encourag...

Sylvia Basham: An Extravagant Gift
http://sylviabasham.blogspot.com/2011/12/extravagant-gift.html
Wednesday, December 14, 2011. Fourth grade was a long time ago for me. Forty-one years ago. But it wasn’t so long ago that I don’t remember the gift that year. The year was 1970 and Go Go Girls (not to be confused with GaGa) were all the rage with their long straight hair, miniskirts and tall white boots. Our basic needs were met and I’m sure government assistance played a part in that. As a little girl, I had no clue the hardship because we were loved and I can’t remember ever being hung...It wasn’...

Friday, January 13, 2012. Remember from my previous. Post that I like to set some. 8220;reasonably attainable” goals. For my homeschooling and for. Other areas of my. But I also think that we. Should have other loftier goals. That will challenge us to grow. That are not necessarily. Reasonably attainable, but likely. Attainable only through the. Strength that God gives. With that in mind, I wanted to clue you in to a few bars that need to be raised in my life, call them resolutions if you like, but.
