Randall did his State of the Blog message back on the 13th. I guess that should’ve clued me in. But it wasn’t until I was trying to fall asleep last night that I remembered that I started my blog in the month of May when Luke was only a few months old. That makes it [...]
Well, here is the new look for VanderMeander. I’ve never had a white background before. I know there are two people in particular who will appreciate the white look: one for the ease of reading and one for his great love of white minimalism on the internet.
Either way, I find the simplicity of it bold. [...]
All day I pray to be a womb for God.
On the way through the early blue light to the dentist, I whisper it to Father, “A womb, Lord. Come dwell in me.”
When we come home from the appointment to crusty bowls still on the table and the entrails of scarves and mittens and boots flung [...]
I’ll be in Winnipeg all day tomorrow hanging out with a girl I’ve never met. We’ve been reading each others’ blogs for a good while now, but we have yet meet face to face. I’m pretty excited.
I’m sure Nicole isn’t some crazy, blog-stalking psychopath, right? You wouldn’t send funky coasters and Burger King gift cards [...]
I started going through Wordpress themes today. Marc seemed relaxed this morning for the first time in a long time, so I figured he may have a bit of time over the next little while to help me tweak a new blog design. I’m pretty happy with the one I have now, but we’ve never [...]
One of the nice things about choosing to go to seminary in Manitoba is that we’re getting to meet a lot of bloggers.
Actually.
If we go back five years now, you have Marc (new to the blogworld) running across Randall’s blog, which lead to Marc checking out Gateway, he and Randall going out for coffee, us [...]
Blogging has been on the back-burner lately. Or at least the kind of blogging that takes any thought effort besides rehashing the events of the day. Sorry about that. I’m still growing and learning new things (probably more now than ever), just in the context of extreme busyness and always on the verge of total [...]
Not sure how many of you caught the anonymous comment on my Woman Body post, which linked me to this post which then linked to a site called The Belly Project. And all I can say is “Brilliant”. (And “Thank you!” to the anonymous commenter.)
A couple years ago a friend mentioned that if there was [...]
Did I mention that I’m the co-organizer of this year’s ladies’ retreat at our church? And since the other co-organizer is in the States until the week of the retreat, I guess that makes me the organizer. And the retreat is in just over two weeks.
What am I supposed to be doing for this anyway? [...]
A little Friday entertainment, first found at Heather’s blog. (How could I not do this with a name like “Dixie”? There are lots of good ones here, but I think I like my Soap Opera name the best — well, after the Gangsta Name, of course.) Feel free to put your 9 Names in the [...]
