Yesterday I was in a foul mood. Nothing major happened to get me there it was a matter of too many people pulling me in too many directions for too long. By lunch time I couldn’t take it anymore. I decided I was due for a little “me” time an...

I am sitting here holding my new handmade Thuya Burl Pen, just hoping I can find adequate words to describe it. Now, everyone who knows me knows that I am a huge fan of Fisher Space Pens, so it was difficult for me to believe I could like a p...

Forever Boys

2009-11-06T04:18:24Z

What is it about boys and flashlights? Every Christmas I get a couple to stick in their stockings and you’d think it was the latest and greatest video game. “Look, at it when I shine it on the TV! Look at the ceiling when I do it this way!” I...

Influencing Young Minds

2009-11-06T04:17:30Z

I teach a class of ninth graders once a week. Teaching is at once exhilarating and intimidating, because those kids take my words at face value. They believe and trust me, so I try to be careful and extremely intentional with every word I say...

X-Marks Man - Still a Stranger

2009-11-06T04:16:39Z

I woke up this morning and discovered that we were out of milk. I decided to run to the gas station and get some before the kids got up, which I have done many times. I didn’t bother to brush my hair, throw on make-up, or even change clothes....
