Can’t you just learn to control yourself? Posted on October 19, 2006 By pamela I think I must have reverse anorexia. By this, I mean, I think when I look in the mirror I see less than what I see. I also seem less than what I am. And, by this, I mean: when I walk by a space, or see the size of… Read more
sweetest secrets Posted on October 17, 2006 By pamela I’m discovering more and more that it’s best to not tell everyone everything you know ~wink~ and, for that matter, it’s best to just quietly go about your days not making too many waves (but then, that’s a blog entry for another day). A few days a week Kathryn works… Read more
Truth is… Posted on October 12, 2006 By pamela The adage, truth is stranger than fiction, sure rings clear when considering some news stories. I often think nothing could top what’s already been done or said by Cindy Sheehan and then I correct my words and say, I shall never cease to be amazed at what she says or… Read more
about that food processor Posted on October 10, 2006 By pamela Wellp, it’s been a great day. We had the loveliest drive to Canada. Yes… it’s a drive –but always worth it. The autumn leaves were spectacular (probably not as they would be in the New England states, but incredibly beautiful nonetheless). With each turn of the road, it was like… Read more
A Crown of… glory Posted on October 9, 2006 By pamela I can hardly write today as I am giddy with excitement over an appointment I have tomorrow morning. I am considering all the delightful things that are equal in value… a used car… a Bosch mixer and *all* the attachments. A computerized sewing machine… well a low end machine, anyway…. Read more

Kelli sent me a USA Today article link… Read more
The empty womb Posted on October 4, 2006 By pamela Month after month, year after year… and then years… prayers and tears. An empty womb, empty arms, and seemingly empty prayers. But the LORD sees and the LORD hears the prayers. According to His plan –His mercy and His will, the womb remains and the arms remain: empty. Month after… Read more
a slice of an october day Posted on October 4, 2006 By pamela I thought about writing one more post about flies. And then I decided, nah, the first was enough and two was too many. However, day three of my fly-capturing adventure went very well. I think our team won with an arsenal of fly-paper strips hanging in every room and the… Read more
the spectator mother Posted on October 2, 2006 By pamela A phase of motherhood I was never prepared to experience is how quickly I would become sort of a spectator –or that I would become a spectator at all.
