Cats and Christmas Trees

from lsegolf @ eMom

Many of you on this blog are familiar with our cat, Jasper. He’s 21 pounds of cat fat surrounded by a very cushy striped coat. He’s very friendly, his favorite game is “bite”, which he learned as a young kitten,…

Wanderlust

from boston commoner. @ boston commoner.

It’s here again. I haven’t had it in a while. Spurts of desire to hop on a plane and go visit people and places, maybe, but not this deeper, blacker drive to fly away and disappear for a while.

I’ve always had a thing for the idea of traveling. Traveling, …

A “Captain Planet” Day

from Fae @ A Glimpse...That Place

For Thanksgiving, Kat, my boyfriend, and I all went up to Virginia Beach, Va to visit my best friend, Red, and her boyfriend. It was a blast. But I think the best part was the last night we were there….

Moan-day

from boston commoner. @ boston commoner.

I know I should be thankful that I even have a job. A relatively easy, flexible job at that; one that affords me time to sit here and do this whole blogging thing in the first place. And I am, I guess. Thankful, that is. When I think about it. …

Thanksgiving has been a fun and relaxing break from the routine! For our official “first Thanksgiving” together, Gabe and I went to his parents’ home. It is always a lot of fun to catch up on what everyone has been…

First site

from Gabriel @ vortex

I was going to post this a while ago, but I forgot. Here’s the very first site I did for TrueMatter. It’s a site for a manufacturer of steel deck, so not my fault if the content is rather boring….

Money Matters

from boston commoner. @ boston commoner.

I “visited” my apartment for the first time last week this past Saturday. You can imagine the pile of bills and other junk mail that tumbled out of my post box when I was finally able to check it. Among these was my first electricity bill. I was too busy …

He?s Still Workin? On Me

from boston commoner. @ boston commoner.

A recent post about personality types on Meanderings got me thinking about this song we used to sing at my old church in Sunday School, Children’s Church, and other kids’ ministries:

He’s still workin’ on me

To make me what I ought to be.

It took Him just a week to make the …

Homesick

from boston commoner. @ boston commoner.

I haven’t seen my poor little apartment all week. I have been home helping my mom, who has her own busy schedule at this time of year, by watching my younger brother in the evenings. It doesn’t make sense to go back to Boston just to sleep and wake and …
