No thanks. I’m not gonna post a thing a day via blog or FB of something I’m thankful for. I should. I’m just not up to the task, but it doesn’t mean that I don’t think about it. I’ve been thinking about it for a few weeks now. Mostly, I’ve been thinking of things I [...]

Deep Thoughts
Well, I’m not sure that they’re all that deep. I just find titles intimidating. I wonder if I’ve used one too many times and that everyone is aware of that fact except me. Several Mondays have passed & I have forgotten to post my gratitude list. I ended on #27; I’m currently at #66. I [...]

Full Days
Yesterday was a really hard day. I wrote about some of my struggles on my photography blog. We have a lot of rough days here in the Taylor Tribe; many of them end up with me totally annoyed & putting my kids to bed early just to get them out of my hair. Then I [...]

Belonging
For as long as I can remember I’ve wanted to belong somewhere. I have always felt different. Sort of like I’m standing just outside of the circle. I’m not quite included. I always imagine that the group in that circle will just move on and if I don’t keep up I’ll be left behind because [...]

Continuing Gifts
12. $100 cash gift from friends at church. Used for gas, gifts for kids, and a movie ticket. 13. M&J. Scarves and gift cards for each of us. The 3 younger kids used their gift cards to buy gifts for one another while Christopher traded his for cash to buy pants at Ross. (Much needed [...]

The Beginning of 1000
Ann over at A Holy Experience began to look at the gifts around her that God has given her. She decided to write them down. It changed her. I want that change, too. A couple of weeks ago I was talking to my child about her ungrateful heart. It actually hurt me; I was so [...]

Livin’ it Up!
I am really enjoying my life right now. Seriously. Life is good. I sleep during normal sleeping hours now. It’s not nearly enough, but I’m getting there. I cook AND do the dishes that same day. I’m not falling asleep while driving. I don’t feel like I’m drowning in the depths of despair. New Year’s [...]

Boggling Brains
I think I tend to be dramatic. Please remember that even though I have a sister, I really was raised as an only child. So, I’m an only and a youngest..and well, I didn’t have to work hard when I was a kid. I remember not liking the teachers or coaches that were harder on [...]

Journey through time, part 1
It is a beautiful fall day here in the Pacific Northwest. I love love love autumn. I can’t get enough of it. I can’t take enough pictures and I’m sure I’ve written about it before. I really must scan in the negatives from my Maine trip four years ago. That’s where my heart is right [...]
