The Fifth Day After Christmas

The Fifth Day After Christmas

The fifth day after Christmas and Rainy’s freezer is broken and our washer is still having issues. I wash everything in cold water and I think our cold water pipe to the washer is still frozen. The water barely trickles out. It takes f-o-r-e-v-e-r to do laundry now and I have to stand there with it to help it along. I don’t have enough time in the day for this but yesterday was warm and it’s…

John Dowie on Victoria Wood, the Mona Lisa, a banana and his new book

John Dowie (Photograph by Steve Ullathorne) This is the second and final part of a chat I had with the unique British performer John Dowie. (The first part is HERE.) We were supposed to be plugging his latest book Before I Go. But I just like chatting randomly with creative people. Mea culpa. ME: There’s a little-known 2003 anthology called Sit Down Comedy (put together by Malcolm Hardee and…

One-Liner Wednesday

A new pet battery instead of a dog. (Glad the truck runs but didn’t have time to drive to the shelter and to the doctor appointment.) Meh. Linda’s One-Liner Wednesday

The Cosmic Conversation

Who would be at your roundtable if you could choose anyone from beyond the mortal coil to converse with?

One hypothetical that has always captivated my attention when ensconced in the customary boredom that precedes imaginative pondering is that of a dinner roundtable with who you would invite to a dinner roundtable in the cosmic afterlife. Who would you want to engage in conversation? To ask the burning questions for which the descendants of those bygone eras and experiences are left only to grasp…

Is your job making you fat?

Something I often told is that when we are unhappy, unsatisfied or frustrated – we reach for the fridge, the snack box, the hidden chocolates… And they are right – a lot of us would lie if we were asked outright if we snacked throughout the day. The sheer amount of snacks and ‘small bits’ I can make my way through in a 7 hour period is astronomical… Controlling what we eat is very much hand in…

Toddling down memory lane...

Toddling down memory lane…

Photo by Nathan J Hilton on Pexels.com Well, today’s prompt took me a few minutes or so to give my memory a jig and I must say that as I meandered through lanes of memories of yester-years, searching the nooks and crannies to see if I can pinpoint my earliest memory tucked away neatly in the recesses of my mind, waiting to be discovered as it jumps out at me and says ‘hello there, here I am and…

Cookies Before The Power Went Out

Sky was able to come early yesterday since it was supposed to be even harsher weather after 3 but it didn’t get any more threatening, in fact, par from some big wind gust it was just rain. The morning was a monsoon though. So much rain fell from the sky it was amazing. We had to go out in the early morning for his labs but after that we stayed in. Sky made chocolate chip cookies since there was…

Set Up for Failure / Authoritarian Parenting

Lately I’ve been mulling over the thought or concept of how fundie families set their children up for failure. I can’t speak to a wider or societal understanding of the concept, but I can speak to my own experiences. Much of my criticism comes from how children in fundamentalism are instructed to deal with authority figures. More specifically, how children are taught blind obedience to authority…

Lessons From a Genealogy (Ruth 4:18-22)

By listing someone’s descendants in writing, it indicates an ongoing developing story which has happened, and continues to develop up to the present time, and even into the future.

Now these are the descendants of Perez: Perez became the father of Hezron, Hezron of Ram, Ram of Amminadab, Amminadab of Nahshon, Nahshon of Salmon, Salmon of Boaz, Boaz of Obed, Obed of Jesse, and Jesse of David. (New Revised Standard Version) No, I didn’t make a mistake about what the verses are for today from the Revised Common Lectionary. Yes, the Old Testament lesson is a brief genealogy.…
