  • Lent 2023, Day 34: For Righteousness’ Sake.

    We, the people of Earth, will just remain ashamed, in perpetuity, amongst all the angels, archangels, Vulcans, and Jawas.

  • Lent 2023, Day` 4: I almost died 9 years ago.

    So the doctor who couldn’t be bothered to help prevent my developing deadly blood clots died of… blood clots.

  • Lent 2023, Day 3: Stations of the Cross.

    Por la Vía Dolorosa, triste día en Jerusalén
    Los soldados le abrían paso a Jesús
    Mas la gente se acercaba
    Para ver al que llevaba aquella cruz

  • Some Sunday Stuff: Fourth Week of Advent, 2021.

    Peace, especially at this time of year, is usually depicted as being silent, or quiet. It is “Silent Night” come to life; it’s the sound of snow falling, and maybe it’s just a tad staid. But that’s not the peace that Dr. King fought for, and it certainly isn’t the peace the King of Kings taught us to live out. Real peace -like real hope, real love, and real joy- demands action.

  • Some Sunday Stuff: Second Week of Advent, 2021.

    Love
    So many people use your name in vain
    Love
    Those who have faith in you sometimes go astray
    Love
    Through all the ups and downs, the joys, and hurts
    Love
    For better or worse I still will choose you first

  • Lent 2021, Day 20: In the midst of things.

    It’s been a really, really, really, long year.

    Really.

"... the awesomely gifted Alisha DeFreitas... tells her story of  her brush with the Culture of Death and her refusal to play the world’s game. I love that she gives two well-aimed upraised middle fingers: one to the abortion culture of the Left, and one to the Randian Makers vs. Takers class warriors of the Right. She’s one of my heros."

Mark Shea, author and blogger


"While reading your blog I often sense a certain amount of conviction on your behalf, which makes me wonder why isn’t everyone reading the blogs of a woman who actually “gets it.”

Don, at Minus The Bars


"A curious mix of the sacred and profane...too nice for a run of the mill blog? "

Joe, my brother, author of The Blog of Blogs


"Are you really bored or something?"

Joscelyne, my sister
