alice in bloggerland: A Challenge to the Steeler Nation, the Jets, and the NFL
http://aliceinbloggerland12.blogspot.com/2011/01/challenge-to-steeler-nation-jets-and.html
Monday, January 17, 2011. A Challenge to the Steeler Nation, the Jets, and the NFL. Is it really a big deal? Isn't it more important that the team rose above the controversy and are on the brink of the opportunity to win it all? Is this an issue? Is there a problem here? I mean, really, didn't the women have a role in this? For me, while I believed the reports, decided to give Ben the benefit of the doubt. People go to prison for this! They go for a long time! The Pittsburgh Steelers have one of the fine...

alice in bloggerland: Thanksgiving
http://aliceinbloggerland12.blogspot.com/2008/11/thanksgiving.html
Wednesday, November 26, 2008. It's that time of year when families plan to spend time with extended family members. It's the busiest travel time of the year. Thanksgiving is a great idea; a time to reflect and be thankful for all the good things that we have experienced this year; a time to be grateful for our blessings, and in particular, grateful for family and friends. There are so many things to be thankful for! That has been a long long long time in coming! But here it is! I'm so very thankful!

alice in bloggerland: Aroma
http://aliceinbloggerland12.blogspot.com/2008/12/aroma.html
Sunday, December 21, 2008. First of all, that is quite the place to live in! Second of all, what a raw moment in time! I cannot claim to completely live my life from a position of truth, but it is my goal and my hope to live there as often as I can. But let me tell you, in the work I have now embarked on, that intense wrestling of the soul to choose life or to remain in a dark place is sometimes painfully visible. I did not judge her. But I sorrowed for her. I again encouraged her to keep trying ...It is...

alice in bloggerland: 10 Years
http://aliceinbloggerland12.blogspot.com/2009/12/10-years.html
Sunday, December 20, 2009. When August 16th, 2009 rolled around, it marked the 10 year anniversary of my return to Texas after an intense 13 years in California. I have wanted to document the experience, and decided a Christmas news letter just might be in order. I'm horrible with Christmas cards, but enjoy facebook and blogsites, so I decided to catch every one up with a blog! 1 The miracle of my time in California. It was an amazing experience! I bought the house! 2 Was this really His intention? He ha...

alice in bloggerland: 2010 at a Glance
http://aliceinbloggerland12.blogspot.com/2011/01/2010-at-glance.html
Saturday, January 1, 2011. 2010 at a Glance. Last year I sent out a Ten Year blog, and thought 10 years was a bit too long to wait between updates! So,here is one just after a year. The job provides much satisfaction in many ways. Yes, there are aspects of the job that I find exhausting and some days I struggle maintaining a "cool" disposition. But more times than not there is a sense of accomplishment as I walk out the sally port each evening. She no longer hangs her head and smiles brightly, is establi...

alice in bloggerland: Making a difference
http://aliceinbloggerland12.blogspot.com/2008/12/making-difference.html
Sunday, December 7, 2008. My job with the 'juvies' was nearing an end. The company had committed to the facility being a place for doctorate students completing their internships, so myself and the other master's level employee were informed the job would end in August. I feel confident that the Lord orchestrated the new job with the prison, but of course I was anxious and nervous to get the job. I fully believe that hope is a choice. Some will find a silver lining in every garbage heap they encounte...

alice in bloggerland: November 2008
http://aliceinbloggerland12.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 28, 2008. Grandma and the Secret Weapon. I wrote this piece several years ago when I was participating in a story teller's club. It was written in the format for speaking in story form. It needs much work before ever being presented as a story teller, but thought I would post it anyway. I have been advised to break it down into two, perhaps three different stories, and perhaps someday I will. Grandma and the Secret Weapon. Growing up can be rough! The rest of us fall somewhere in between!
