~:: Gratitude ::~

Posted on January 1, 2013 by K

Where I’ve been. Assuming anybody is still there, remembering me and wondering. Snow on the ground. Fire in the sky. I haven’t been on-line at all for weeks (read: months) except for occasional bouts of Facebook—the conversational equivalent of Twinkies—when … Continue reading →

~:: More Helpless Talk ::~

Posted on November 8, 2012 by K

If you’ve come here expecting photos and crafty things and cheeriness, please go to the entry after this one, which is actually before this one, but below. There you will find cuteness.  If you want how I feel now, which … Continue reading →

~:: Brave ::~

I haven’t written anything on a blog or in a journal for weeks.  I’ve been self-publishing like a crazy person, and now I have all the book promotion to figure out.  I HATE being behind like this, and being out … Continue reading →

~:: On Birthdays ::~

Posted on May 15, 2012 by K

Behinder and behinder. In our house, at some point, I made a decree: Christmas is all about Christ, but birthdays are all about YOU. I always hated the sit-on-Santa-and-ask-for-stuff thing. So for my poor children, if Santa’s lap was involved, … Continue reading →
