You know how it is.
You accidentally kick out a light bulb while dancing on the ceiling.
Your mini Dachshund rips out an oak tree in the back yard leaving a gaping, potentially dangerous hole.
You drive into a gated community and stop to read a sign on the gate, dumb to the fact [...]

ON THE WAY TO LIGHT AND FREEDOM by Jonas Gloc

Originally posted January 19, 2009. I am re-posting not because I am having hyena trouble, but as a tribute to my present “secret cheerleaders” and to those who have inspired me to secretly, and not-so-secretly, cheer for them.
**********************
Here are some fairly “new to me” concepts that I’m going to blow by you. I’ve only recently [...]

We watched The Answer Man last night. It was a cute but not fabulous romantic comedy in the spirit of As Good as it Gets. A little overacted by Jeff Daniels, but I digress…
A conversation took place that went loosely along these lines:

Kris: I have all this [...]

One for My Guy

by Heather Kephart June 14, 2009 Family

My husband married a fun, spontaneous, one might even argue sexy on a good day party girl and ended up with… wait for it… Mommy.
It’s true. I almost feel sorry for the guy. It all happened so quickly. We met in 2003, married in 2005, and by the time I had Joe Joe in 2006 [...]

Brick Walls

by Heather Kephart May 15, 2009 Family

I was drop-kicked into yesterday morning by a bad dream. After tossing and turning for a bit, when it became irkfully apparent that I would not be falling back to sleep, it dawned on me that if I were to get out of bed that very moment I could expect to have roughly ONE hour [...]

Obstacles – If you stare at that word it starts to look really weird

by Heather Kephart April 14, 2009 Inspiration

Moves can be good as well as supremely irritating. They offer us a fresh start and force us to confront the debris and schmutz in our surroundings. I’ve been wanting to change some habits and shatter my daily annoyances, and what better time than now?

Lately quite a few people have been making comments to me about my avatar. Speculating about whether or not I’ve Photoshopped my image—why I look so good in it, so young. (Mostly joking of course, tongue in cheek, or being complementary, God bless them.)
This, of course, is laughable to me because I don’t think [...]

Women know that stuff is just stuff

by Heather Kephart December 23, 2008 Domestic Goddessing

The Bitter Half just brought me the latest (12/22/08) issue of Newsweek and pointed out Anna Quindlen’s latest “The Last Word” editorial called “Stuff is Not Salvation”. He knows that I feel the same way and was thinking that I might want to blog about it. Am I a lucky woman or what? Thanks, Mr. [...]

Women seek the greatest gifts

by Heather Kephart December 21, 2008 Inspiration

There are some days when the words just won’t come. I stare at the screen wishing I could imprint my emotions upon it. But since I can’t do that, which is probably for the best, I’m going to post a quote sent to me a couple of weeks ago by somebody special. (to the [...]
