It’s been almost a month since Easter and I have allowed myself to neglect my writing once more. It has been a very involved time with the new board position at my church. When I took on the role, I had no idea how much of my thinking time this stuff would take up. I […]
Continue reading →Sometimes I feel like I resent sleep a little bit. It’s a bit of a funny thing because I need sleep and when I get enough of it, I feel rested and alert and I’m able to do the things that I want to do. I also don’t generally enjoy waking up from it. But […]
Continue reading →I just missed two days in a row. I actually have two unfinished posts in my drafts folder, one titled Lent Day 35, and another Lent Day 36. Now I’ve started Lent Day 37. I’m going to finish this one. The past two days were unusually full. I’ve recently become a member of the Board […]
Continue reading →I’m still thinking through what I wrote last night. I’m not ready to make any grand commitments, but I’m thinking about it. It’s Thursday morning and I’m up early (not as early as my alarm was set, but early) and I’m writing. I feel so much better than two days ago and it appears that […]

I managed to get out of bed at 5:30 this morning, spent some time in prayer, got a few things ready for breakfast and now I’m sitting down to write. Friday is one of the days that […]
Continue reading →I had a hard time getting up today. I don’t know if anybody else has a love/hate relationship with the snooze button on your alarm clock. I enjoy pressing the snooze button repeatedly. I suspect that I’m not actually getting much benefit out of this kind of sleep where I am awakened every eight to […]

I find New Year’s Eve a little strange. It’s not strange to celebrate the turning over of the calendar. That makes a lot of sense. It’s great to mark new beginnings and to reflect on the year gone by. It’s just that we do it in the middle of the night. That’s what I find […]
Continue reading →[This post got carried away with itself – not only did it take over a week to right – funny that my post on time would take so long to write, but it also got long so I decided to break it up. I’ve also decided to try timestamping my entries. For the entries that […]
Continue reading →Friday morning: I’ve written on here before about my bitter-sweet relationship with my job. I work in the civil service and it’s a good job but it’s not the job that I love. It’s not what I would ever choose to do with my time if I didn’t need to earn the money, which isn’t […]
