Today I came across people and I asked them, “What do you love? What can you tell me you love today, Valentine’s Day?” And this is what they said. My parents: very devout and the influential people to me My older brother, John: really smart and always offers sound advice My niece, Giovanna: really cute,ContinueContinue reading “Things we love…on Valentine’s Day!”

Faces y places
Supposed to be What-I-Wore-Wednesday, I know. But I’m just wearing a million winter clothes in a million layers and my BUSINESS hat because: Valetine-y business in the city! 🙂 We’ve been having some fun, and here are some photos. First of all, I was looking back in the archives of the ol’ blog. This wasContinueContinue reading “Faces y places”
A fluffy post
Oh hai! I feel like I’ve been living in a cave of cold-congestion…but today, because God is good and my immune system decided enough was enough, I feel like I emerged from the cave into the bright, blinking sunlight. And hello, hello, for I missed it out here. I was literally like, “Where has myContinueContinue reading “A fluffy post”
Do you want to build a snowman???
Saturday morning found me outside scraping snow and ice off of our driveway for the THREE MILLIONTH time and, what can I say, I have mixed feelings about our recent “most snow evah!!11!” award. Because, on one hand, I’d rather we just left that record back in ’78 but, on the other hand, I’M GLADContinueContinue reading “Do you want to build a snowman???”
Seven quick takes BECAUSE IT’S FRIDAY!!
— 1 — There’s never a convenient time to loss your voice, right? Especially a week of dance lessons, though! Yesterday was a dance lesson/ theology chat with some of the young’un’s at a local Univeristy. They look so good, right?? Fun fact: I’m, like, so old. I have this professional schedule that doesn’t usuallyContinueContinue reading “Seven quick takes BECAUSE IT’S FRIDAY!!”
Weekend recap, whyever not??
Hey ya’ll. A few comments that I thought were funny and you might not but, hey, I try: This morning when I said to Paul as he woke up, “Do you want to die?” And he replied, “Not today.” When I went out to Thai with friends and one ordered his spiciness a “hot” onContinueContinue reading “Weekend recap, whyever not??”
Picked up my boots from the shoe store.
Today nothing big is happening. I have things hanging over my head more than anything exciting. 🙂 But. I did wander down to the wee little shoe-repair shop a few blocks from my office to pick up my boots. They’re already three years old, but I have a love-hate relationship with shopping and if $20ContinueContinue reading “Picked up my boots from the shoe store.”
Masks are good ideas–addressing the problems are better ideas
You know what frustrates me? This. This right here. And it has a noble-ish purpose. Next week there will be the world’s auto show here in my city, Detroit. Yes. Detroit. The one of the burnt-out buildings and the broken governing system and the ineffective public transportation system. I know, I know. You think IContinueContinue reading “Masks are good ideas–addressing the problems are better ideas”
26 things to do at 26 instead of getting married…or not
I have an idea: let’s stop beating a dead horse, internet. Some people get married before the age of 23, and that’s good and beautiful and right for them. I say: good for you. Some people don’t get married before the age of 23 and, you know what, in many cases that’s the right decisionContinueContinue reading “26 things to do at 26 instead of getting married…or not”
Ginger Rogers, trips to the fabric store, and dress-dreams
I just got back from my New Year’s Retreat. And it was so good. So much good. So much that I wanted even more–more holy chats and more laughter and more sweet, silent prayers with my most loved Jesus who pours love and grace into my heart nonstop. You would think I would start typingContinueContinue reading “Ginger Rogers, trips to the fabric store, and dress-dreams”
