Sing Me Anything: February 2012
http://philipandandrea.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
A few things on my mind:. 1 money (always.) today i paid off all my student loans (yayyyy! Anyway, my loans are paid. that's one thing to be grateful for! 3 exercise. my school is doing a staff fitness challenge through the end of the year. we're on teams and racing to new york. i'm on a pretty incredible team. i can't say i'm contributing my "fair share" of miles (considering i have marathon runners on my team), but i'm certainly out and about more than usual this nasty time of year.

Sing Me Anything: day 1: a different take
http://philipandandrea.blogspot.com/2014/08/day-1-different-take.html
Day 1: a different take. First day of school! The main difference this year is that I'm part-time and don't have full homeroom teacher responsibilities. I didn't have the "are all of my kids behaving and making me look like a good teacher? Anxiety during convocation. I didn't tune out the speaker (good thing, since it was my principal! Thinking about everything in the handbook I need to point out to my kids in the next half hour. I could just relax and enjoy the beginning-of-the-year celebration. But tom...

The Sound of Silence: Three steps to giving a sermon guaranteed to start a discussion:
http://ogukuo.blogspot.com/2009/09/three-steps-to-giving-sermon-guaranteed.html
The Sound of Silence. Three steps to giving a sermon guaranteed to start a discussion:. 1 Choose Psalm 139 as your text. 2 Add Proverbs 15:3. 3 Start the sermon by likening God to George Orwell’s ‘Big Brother’ who is always watching for mistakes. This pretty much describes the sermon we had Sunday morning from a guest pastor. The title of the sermon was “WATCH OUT! 8221; Yes, that was actually the title, and yes, it was all in caps lock. Oh be careful little hands what you do. My name is Philip. I am...

The Sound of Silence: New apartment!!
http://ogukuo.blogspot.com/2009/11/new-apartment.html
The Sound of Silence. After several months of religiously checking Craigslist and Property Management sites, Andrea and I have chosen an apartment to move into! Its on the outskirts of downtown Bellingham, on the corner of "H" St and Bancroft, if you happen to know Bellingham. Its a two bedroom, 1.5 bath, one living room, one kitchen, upstairs apartment. Its got two smallish decks, one of which has a partial view of the Bellingham Bay! I'll try to post pictures once we've moved in (in about 2 weeks).

meditations of a montana mountain girl: June 2011
http://fortuitousyetfortunate.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Meditations of a montana mountain girl. Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair. Kahlil Gibran. Ripe red fruit and bright blue birds. Yes, it is the beginning of fruit season. Red, ripe, fruit season. A few strawberries have been eaten. We are drooling over the handful of cherries that just may be ripe by the weekend. Last night after dinner I walked to Mt. Sentinel and made my way up the steep trail to the fire road that runs across the wes...

meditations of a montana mountain girl: April 2011
http://fortuitousyetfortunate.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Meditations of a montana mountain girl. Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair. Kahlil Gibran. April . . . showers? I'm sitting cross-legged on the living room floor, with my computer on the coffee table, listening to Seth Martin and the Menders. And smelling the delectable wafting scent of the double chocolate layer cake. Two weeks ago we woke up to this:. And then another glorious mix of rain and wind and sunshine and snow this evening:.

Sing Me Anything: October 2014
http://philipandandrea.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
I've been having some non-Braxton Hicks contractions over the last week, so things are slowly happening. But I really don't have any idea when the big show will take place. I have a midwife appointment tomorrow- we'll see what she says, but for now, we're just.waiting. Enough boring writing. Pictures! 37 weeks, 2 days (September 29). Philip assembles the crib. Modeling my new Moby wrap from Al! 39 weeks (October 11). Philip's winter wheat patch. Studly farmer with his freshly planted wheat berries.

The small part of our backyard. We have now lived in our new place for a month.and it's never a dull moment around here. In fact, Philip just dashed past me to see the raccoon that was chilling by our compost! We've settled in well, had a couple of "family meetings," and have worked out lots of details. We enjoy 4-5 dinners together per week (taking turns cooking, which means we can put more effort into the nights we cook! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Simple template. Template images by luoman.
