Some Saturday Stuff: April 26th.
My new model hand for sketching. I think it’s art all in itself. This month really flew by, didn’t it? Almost May. Here’s hoping that the weather around here will start to match the calendar consistently. Let’s get to some links… I haven’t done a Some Saturday Stuff since March! First, this…

Sex and shame.
(Source) I read a good post at Today’s Christian Woman that I wanted to share, because quite frankly, I can relate. I’ve had a few conversations with my married Christian girlfriends lately on the same subject. Sex. Specifically, why is there a veil of shame or secrecy around sex to the point that…

Some Sunday Stuff: March 30th
April and Gary, happy new owners of “Gown Girl” Good Sunday to you. I’m glad to report that my first two art commissions are residing with their owners. Above, you can see the lovely April and the handsome Gary after just unpacking “Gown Girl”. Since I haven’t written before where I came up…

Some Saturday Stuff: March 22nd.
Happy Saturday, Friends. By now, you’ve probably seen the American Vogue cover featuring Kimye that is producing a whole lot of backlash. A whole lot is probably an understatement. Anyway, it didn’t really bother me, to be honest. I haven’t purchased an issue of Vogue in years, and frankly, I’d noticed the mag’s…

Slinging so much Spacey.
K binged watched “House of Cards” this weekend, polishing off the first season and getting into the second. (His response to the shocking twist in the first episode? “About damn time”.) I am of course, thrilled that my Love has gotten into it without my having to Sherlock him, because it really is a…

To some, this dismal outlook is either inevitable, or even positive, as Americans shift from their historically “expansive” view and embrace a more modest déclassé…

Happy Saturday, folks. The picture above is a cropped bit of the results of my bloodwork taken at Northwestern and sent to the Mayo Clinic. Thanks be to God, the results showed no evidence of cancer! I got these Tuesday and would’ve posted them sooner, but Zoe caught a cold this week and promptly…

Some Saturday Stuff: November 9th.
Happy Saturday, Folks! Pretty good week for me. Cooked almost every day (except yesterday when I had plasmapheresis which usually leaves me feeling wiped; it didn’t though-woohoo!- but we still picked up something anyway). Took little Miss Z out in the stroller a few times, and got to hang out with my favorite not-so-little…

Some Saturday Stuff: November 2nd.
Yesterday, after destroying the apartment, Zoe tucked herself in using my scarf. Happy Saturday, Folks. No traveling this week. In fact, I only was in a car one day this week. Nice change. I’ve received a few questions about how I’m doing after that “SomewhereinAmerica” experience. I’m okay. I’m not bugging out,…

I can’t be your life lesson.
Me, window gazing in May 2008. Spoke with my dad briefly on the phone yesterday. I called to say “Happy Anniversary”. It’s been fourteen years since he married my stepmom. The conversation was awkward, as is pretty usual with him these days, but it became laughably dark, too. When I mentioned…
