http://splashinginthedeepend.blogspot.com/2009/02/not-what-i-expected.html
Friday, February 06, 2009. Not What I Expected. It’s a family joke. Perhaps in more households than just our own. The males (no offense intended) were born without the ability to find lost things. Do we have any toothpicks? 8220;Yes, dear. In the spice cabinet.”. 8220;I’m looking. In the spice cabinet. They’re not here.”. 8220;I didn’t see them,” he says. 8220;I know, dear.”. 8220;I thought they were in a red and white box. Wasn’t expecting yellow.”. I hadn’t thought to look there. Twenty-six years ago, ...

Splashing in the Deep End: Writing Sediments and Sentiments
http://splashinginthedeepend.blogspot.com/2009/01/writing-sediments-and-sentiments.html
Thursday, January 29, 2009. Writing Sediments and Sentiments. The writing day I envisioned evaporated. In its place I found what I considered sediment. Upon closer examination, it revealed its true nature. Not sediment at all, but condensed particles of a writing life devoted to God’s plan and timing. The aisles held not people but characters. An elderly woman shouted at her deaf husband who had a one-word vocabulary—“Huh? 8221; A man read the label on a box of frozen, deep-fried mozzarella sticks. (...

http://splashinginthedeepend.blogspot.com/2009/02/opposites.html
Friday, February 27, 2009. Since my oldest is more than thirty, I've been playing Opposites (and Rhyming and Colors and Hide 'n Seek and Situations- our homegrown version of "What would you do if?

When one of the grandkids suggests we play Opposites, I'm ready with my vocabulary arsenal. Nothing on my to-do list. Would I like that better? Nothing meaningful to occupy my time? The n...
