Crafty Monkey: March 2011
http://puddlefoots-craftymonkey.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Life's problems are often eased by hot milky drinks. Saturday, March 12, 2011. Well, I went to the rummage sales yesterday and scored some lovely blue velour (yards and yards of it for $1). I think I might use it to tackle the Willemientje. Dress from Farbenmix. The blue would be the overdress color and I still need to decide on what to use for the underdress. White satin? Maybe a nice bit of white eyelet material? Wednesday, March 2, 2011. First rummage sales of spring (almost). I love church rummage sa...

Elizabeth’s Little Blog. Finding Our Way to Sunday. April 4, 2015. Ps A good book on Holy Saturday is Shelly Rambo’s Spirit and Trauma: A Theology of Remaining. Goodbye Fast Fading Magical Ones. November 18, 2012. I remember them in our kitchen with their beers. With mouths wide open and heads thrown back. Like it was still the nineteen seventies.

February 24, 2012. And, as Nick Cave says, I don’t believe in an interventionist God. So I won’t say that God somehow pulled me to Ash Wednesday services (or [back to] to Christianity for that matter) but if I did believe those things, that is what I would have said about the services I went to yesterday.

Text: Gospel of Matthew Chapter 9:18-34. Sometimes it seems like nothing will ever be okay. We look left and there is pain and hatred. We look right and there is violence.
