change always comes bearing gifts

“Just because everything is different doesn’t mean anything has changed.” -Irene Peter

Remember that post I did on change a few weeks ago? This might be a good time to read it again. {wink}. It was simply time for a change. What you saw on the former design was lovely (I thought) but what it lacked were things that you could not see.

If you miss the old design, I at least hope you will be able to appreciate the searchable archives and the ease of use of this new one. Darcy has worked her little fingers down to the bone while I have asked for minutia with fonts and sizes and coloring. She is a gem wrapped up in gold topped with a cherry and sprinkled with magical fairy dust. And? Look what she made.

And for Tuesdays.

And for when you need reminding.

a place for your soul to breathe

It’s not all the way finished, so check back when you can. I am so happy to have something that both looks pretty and works well. And to have Darcy. She is every bit as helpful as everyone says. And then, a little bit more.

title quote from Price Pritchett.

coming back to tuesday

Each week when I unwrap the small everyday gifts on Tuesdays I wonder if people have had enough of it; if I have had enough of it. Maybe we get it now. Maybe now we’ve finally learned how to live in the moment, to receive this day as the one that the Lord has made, to pause and cherish and celebrate.

And then the next day comes and I realize how every morning I wake up and I need to be reminded to remember. I think that’s why He says that His mercies are new every morning and why He told us to pray only for our daily bread, and not for bread to last a lifetime. I can’t get perspective in a dose big enough to last more than a day, most times.

And that is why I keep coming back to Tuesday. Join me?

between saturdays

As you may have noticed, I took a week off. I went to Hilton Head with my kids and my mom-and-sister-in-law. It was an all-girls-plus-my-son week as The Man was away on a youth trip.

I didn’t work all week. I didn’t make one list. I didn’t write even one sentence on my manuscript. I barely did laundry. I happily ate way too much here. I read this book. We watched this movie. And this one. And this one, too.

The ocean water was freezing, but it didn’t keep them out. The pool water was colder, and even I got in. I didn’t see the ocean until I was 12. I’m so glad they are growing up with it.

It is rare to get even a Saturday with nothing planned to do, let alone an entire week. Still, it is good to be home. And now on this anti-Saturday, the challenge will be to find the bliss in the midst of the ordinary chaos. When you find yours, write about it and come back to unwrap it with us tomorrow.
