JBB's Musings: September 2013
http://jbbsmusings.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Sunday, September 22, 2013. The constant remaking of domestic chaos into the order that keeps a house alive and peaceful takes a lot of doing.". May Sarton in At Seventy: A Journal. Today was perfect to revel in and take time to reflect on this autumnal equinox. It was an achingly beautiful day in which to do some more organizing in the house but also to escape outside at the slightest excuse. Seasonal changes are energizing days that bring renewal to the house, and in turn, renewal to our spirits. SMALL...

JBB's Musings: Correction - One Word 2015
http://jbbsmusings.blogspot.com/2015/01/correction-one-word-2015.html
Sunday, January 04, 2015. Correction - One Word 2015. It strikes me as an ugly word, a word that emphasizes something is wrong, something is bad: CORRECTION. Not an inspirational affirmation. But, the lessons and messages keep coming. This NEEDS to be, this MUST be, my OneWord this year. (See 2014. Two positive messages confirmed the word for me today. First, Semicolon's post, " 50 Facts and Links for Psalm 119 - Semicolon. And her quote in fact no. 34:. A text critical note! Is it "my" or "your" ways?

http://jbbsmusings.blogspot.com/2013/10/understanding-backwards-living-forwards.html
Monday, October 07, 2013. Understanding Backwards; Living Forwards. The problem with posting anything remotely religious is that one gives the impression of believing / embodying / BEING what it is that has been written – and that impression may not exactly be true. Having said that, I am posting this as a record of what struck me on a Sunday in July as I was practicing getting the phrasing right in a hymn for a substitute organist “gig” at a local Presbyterian church:. The full quote is:. As we prepare ...

JBB's Musings: Living a Beautiful Life
http://jbbsmusings.blogspot.com/2013/11/living-beautiful-life.html
Wednesday, November 06, 2013. Living a Beautiful Life. I started writing this blog post nearly two years ago. Seeing a friend’s link on Facebook yesterday about the death of Anne Ortlund. Spurred me to publish the post finally. My mother gave me a book—perhaps shortly after I graduated from college—called Disciplines of the Beautiful Woman. Who believes this is important for her daughter. Related chapters discuss goals, daily scheduling, and a woman’s desk. Having been reminded of this role-model-via-boo...

JBB's Musings: May 2013
http://jbbsmusings.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 17, 2013. Marcell Inn - Altadena. As of June, it will be 19 years since I moved to Southern California. Pasadena has been a wonderful place to live for so many reasons. One of them is the colorful history and cultural heritage of the area, which is actively protected and promoted. I was fortunate to work with someone very involved in historic preservation, and she generously gave me tickets to various home tours and other events. My neighbor wrote a blog post about the find here. Shop Class a...
