In Case You Were Wondering...

I have that little clicky-button "Write More About This" for a reason.

I do pay attention to when people clicky it.

I had a written list of all the posts I had to write more about, but I, being who I am, lost the page.

So, today I went through and wrote them all down again, back to the beginning of the year.

Therefore, take heart, You-Who-Clickies-the-Button, I'm listening.

I'm just slow.

Just think of me as a lesson in patience. (har har har)

We're Drawing Close to the Finish Line, or What Has Been Taking Up My Time Lately

I always seem to have an excuse for not blogging regularly. This time it is a solid excuse.

I have been very busy. Too busy to think many thoughts. Except this one: how can I most efficiently destroy those who used my honey (that I needed for my tea) on their PANCAKES this morning? This is the question that is running through my mind.

However, that can be pondered for about two weeks. I give myself these lengths so I can go over every scenario at my leisure.

Our living room is all painted, and the furniture is brought back in. It's been a wild time of renovation and painting. I have new painting clothes: scrubs. They're comfortable. And green.

I think someday I will be adept at this mudding and painting business. Maybe by the time I get my own house I'll be a pro. Ha! I doubt that'll happen. Maybe I'll *hire* a pro to clean up after me.

It's raining right now, which makes it a good t.v.-watching day. We watched soccer after the living room was finished, and now apparently we're going to watch the Lord of the Rings, after I make rice.

Off to make rice I go.

Delays!

This time I have an excuse as to why my blog has been neglected for nearly a month.

Granted this is probably the first and only time there has ever been a viable reason, but I'm clinging to this one with all the strength in my scraggly nails.

I am not at my own computer.

My computer is semi-taken apart, and is being used for something or other. I don't know the details. All I know is that I can't use it, because it isn't mine right now.

My heart is torn to pieces, but I get through each day with the knowledge that it can't last - besides, my kind brother lets me use his computer, which I must tell you is about a zillion times better than my own. Faster, bigger, sleeker....it radiates awesomeness. Mine is just a pile of outdated parts in comparison. But it's my pile of outdated parts, and I can't write a proper blog post without it.

So, yea, that's why there hasn't been much new. But I bet you didn't even notice - I usually take this long to write a new one anyway. ;)

Each of the sections now have a link to the next part, so it's easier. ^.^ 

A Fresh Start

I am not very good at keeping a blog. That is not to say I don't love writing; I cannot go a day without scribbling something down on a piece of lined paper, or typing until my fingers ache or the buttons on the keyboard threaten to pop off.



I am just not very good at forming real thoughts in my head long enough to write them into some semblance of proper speech.



I can write poetry; I can write stories of fantasy and wonder. But a simple journal? That is hard for me to do. Especially when I begin to think that others may read it. Did I form a thought properly? Can people understand me? (This is a question I ask myself a lot, not just with writing but with everything else.)

One thing I do know, is that I don't want to just write here for the sake of writing; I want this blog to be a blessing to others, perhaps a way for them to learn of the grace of God. For that is the chief subject of my life. God's grace is so unfathomable, but at least we have words that seem to express it. If I can write of God's grace, then I will.

If I do it well, that is even better.
