Sometimes you could just throttle ‘em
Darling daughter has tried to convince me that there is a good reason why she wants to go to bed late and get up late too – though as yet she has been unable to identify scientific reasoning behind her ridiculously disgusting smelly and unkempt bedroom!
She even threw (what she thought to be) [...]

Catholic Podcasting -MP3 Fun.
I’m a big fan of the mp3 player and I’m chuffed that I have discovered some great sites that offers free christian downloads to listen to on my mp3.
MP3 players are great for listening to music but they’re also a great self educatory tool also.
Now here’s a treat, one of my all time favourite [...]

Ecclesiastes 7:8
“Better is the end of a thing than it’s beginning”
Sure is in this instance.
Just posted my two copies of the Docetism essay (one to the Institute and one to my marker) and it’s out of my hands now. It’s been particularly difficult this week with losing my first draft and notes in the [...]

Feeding the neuroses
Suzanne recently had me fill in her johari window (yep I thought it was something to do with transendental meditation too!) and now I’m going to ask you each to take a look at mine and select five or six words that you think best describe my personality :)

Thanks!

The Marriage Proposal.
If I remember correctly I owe you an explanation about a marriage proposal.
Being a single Catholic female (yes I have children but I still consider myself to be single since I am unattached) it occurred to me last year that I might just be up for a relationship if God desires it.
Realising that the oppportunities [...]

Bono Fide
From the image above, you might be given to presume a post on the Ten Comandments, alas, I have only to speak of one…“Thou shall not say ‘how much worse can it get”….because suddenly you’ll realise that you’d never had it so good!
Yep, folks. I have nothing positive to report. Apart from [...]

I hate computers
Well, there I was, feeling like crap, thinking how could things get any worse and just lulling myself into a false sense of security…when I summoned the strength to sit at the computer and respond to the comments of my much loved friends (thankyou) and the bloody thing crashed (computer).
I’m swearing more than usual in [...]

God works in mysterious ways
I’ve been quite poorly during the last 36 hours. Nothing life threatening, but I’ve had accute pains in my head, nausea, stomach upset and a fever. Just got around to checking my mail and thought I’d post while here while I’m online.
This is one way to lose weight in a hurry. I would not have [...]

Prayer Request
Just heard that a friend of mine, a fellow Catechist from our RCIA group has suffered a heart attack. Funnily enough we discovered a couple of years ago that she used to live in my house before I did. All prayers for Jill would be appreciated, thankyou!
God bless.

King Kong is loooong, but fantastic!
If you haven’t seen the new King Kong movie, make sure you catch it at the cinema before it leaves our screens, rent it when it becomes available or even better, buy it!
We went to see it at the cinema today and it was absolutely amazing! The kid’s loved it, though like me, my daughter [...]

Shmaltz!
I’m posting this a few minutes before midnight on the Eve of Valentines Day (or Friendship day if you happen to be in Finland!) as I have a hot date…. with my computer, in any spare time I have during the next 48 hours – I’m going to take Lorna’s advice and quit procrastinating and [...]

You send me!
(If you’re wondering what inspired this post…I just found a Rachmaninov bargain at Amazon :-)…yes I really should be writing my assignment that’s due in in 3 days and is as yet uncompleted..not even half completedeven… but I was looking for background music…at least that’s my excuse!)
I love classical. Particularly Bach and Rachmaninov. [...]

Who am I?
Isn’t it funny how the person that we perceive ourselves to be ’socially’, isn’t always the personality that others would attribute to us?
Last week I was talking with a friend who responded incredulously to something I said, with, “But, you’re such a bubbly, outgoing person!”
“Am I?”, I asked, surprisedly, ” I don’t feel like [...]

What’s your image?
After spending almost all last night picking up vomit and disinfecting carpets, I don’t have the brain power to do anything other than post mush today.
This is not a true representation of my body size or looks,but it’s just about as close as I could get to my hair colour and style on a really [...]

If it’s good enough for Jesus…
Thanks to Lorna who unwittingly gave me this idea for this very blog post!
Our beloved friend (Lorna in this instance, rather than Jesus, though of course, he is our most beloved friend) shared in one of the comments boxes below, a link to a beautiful post about the love offering that a wife gave [...]

Half Term Tribulations
We’re coming up to half term – and another school vacation for the kids. My daughter has been so ill that she’s had the last 2 weeks off school with what we believe to have been flu, so by the time the school break is over she will have had almost a month off school! [...]
