>To Chris Man, Guess what. I got to talk to my boyfriend on the phone today! He’s wonderful, in case you didn’t know. I have already told him several times, but I absolutely adore him. I honestly never knew that a man could be so genuine and so faithful, deeply spiritual, wise, servant-hearted, and dedicated…
>Chris is so sweet. I had praise band practice last night and he got home from rugby about an hour before I did. And he did all he dishes and cleaned the kitchen and swept! And he moved some boxes and metal stuff to the attic. That and he is extremely good looking. I got…
>dainty dandelions disperse dallying dandiness. and dimpled dumplings are dolloped onto doorknobs.this disturbs dazed daydreamers and disappoints disillusioned deists. what a dumb waste of dimpled dandy dumplings. PinterestFacebookTwitterEmail
>We rented a sea kayak! How adventuresome we are. After church, it was a little rainy and foggy and cold but we threw on sweatshirts and took the kayak out anyway for a grand self-guided tour of tributaries and coves all the way to old downtown, by the shipyard and back. Oh wow- it was…
>Tonight Chris and I watched an orangypinkpomegranate sunset from the flight deck of his boat and then doubly enjoyed the Portsmouth fireworks display. I say “doubly” becausewe watched it in both the sky and the reflection on the bay. GRAND! Oh so grand. What a horizon we have to look at here. From the deck,…
>Oh! For the fourth, we drove down to Connecticut to visit the Masalin fam. Friday we went to Ocean Beach on Long Island Sound. What a pretty beach. Ha- Chris and I are pretty cheap, so we didn’t want to pay stinking $14 to park. So, we just parked a couple miles away and hopped…
>I discovered “light cream” at this coffee shop. My dream just came true! No seriously, I have been looking for a cream that tastes like this since I left glorious England in 2007. I haven’t been able to find one with the same creamy sweetness and resolved that it did not exist in the US….
It is wierd. My family moved 9 times and I think 7 of those 9 homes where next to RR tracks. I can sleep through train whistles better than anyone I am quite sure. But now I wake up to- what is this? A light house horn?! And I am growing accustomed to hearing boat…
>Yeah, I’m wearing a sweater. So right now I am sitting in a coffee shop called “Breaking New Grounds” in Market Square of downtown Portsmouth. oh wow, you would love this town. I walked across this bridge from which i could see things like this and this . Then I walked by things like this…
>Chris had a portcall in Virginia last weekend so he flew me up. In the meantime, my students watched The Hunt for Red October- excellent movie- Sir. Sean Connery played a Russian with a Scottish accent; that’s okay because it was still a really good movie. We went to Colonial WilliamsburgI wish we had taken…
>I know this is a little late in coming. With the super-busy first year of teaching, I have been out of the swing of blogging. The not-quite-so-new-news-that-you-may-already-know is that I am engaged to the most wonderful man that I have ever met. I know, crazy, you meet the man of you dreams and he likes…

>On the plane coming back from a great snowboarding spring break and finding a cute duplex in Maine, I was thinking about the sermon from the Ledyard church we attended and I was reviewing his 09-10 schedule (Chris will be out to sea for half of our first year) and wrote this in my journal….
>I was listening to my ipod on an airplane from Maine to Dallas. Jennifer Knapp’s song, “Martyrs and Thieves” is such a true and honest and humble song. I typed the lyrics at the bottom of this blog. It made me think about several verses and a deep meaning that would have to be deep…
>This is a cool quote about it. It’s a chain reaction: Sow a thought, reap an action. sow an action, reap a habit. sow a habit, reap a character.sow a character, reap a destiny.-Samuel Smiles And I thought, so, Shakespeare’s Macbeth actually taught us something. Macbeth let the THOUGHT of killing the King turn into…
>”Yes, I am about to go to bed. yay. What I said earlier about what I’ve learned from talking with other women, particularly with married women, is that men like to fix things- if there is something wrong, they want to make it better and get rid of the problem. Well that makes sense doesn’t…
>How did the Greeks and Romans cut rock and build obilisques 3x taller than the statue of liberty? How did they transport thousands of tons of stone hundreds of miles from quarries to construction sites (there are temples in Italy that have stones from 5 different locations around Africa and Spain!) Archeologists are not sure…
> Josh Turner Song Oh the longer the waiting, the sweeter the kiss It’s better my darlin, I promise you this. Next time I hold you I’m not letting go. Will you wait for it darlin? I need to know. Well you know I’m a sailor and tomorrow we sail. It’s hard way of livin,…
>During the sermon last week, I was jotting a note about patience. I asked the Lord for more of it. Then I wondered, what is it? So I tried to define it, but really couldn’t. Then I started thinking about the fruit of the spirit listed in Galatians 5:22 and what they are and aren’t….
>Okay this is going to be a shuffled recollection of what I learned in the last few hours. I just got back from a 3 1/2 hour session intended to prove intelligent design. Three speakers (I am not going to spell all their names right)- all science scholars: Steven Myers from Cambridge and author of…
>What am I doing? What could I be doing? There are so many options and I feel like I am choosing the path of less excitement. Not of the least excitement, because I don’t think that any teacher could ever say that. But I want to travel. Why am I not teacher in Denver? Why…

>needs affirmation again. I am slightly shocked and deeply frustrated. I watched a britney spears music video. Tis true, I haven’t done that before- i don’t watch MTV and I never look at celebrity or secular music info on the web. Crazy that I have sheltered myself like that- being 22 and all. When the…
>Grandmother was moved to hospice today. She is too tired to open her eyes or talk, but I can tell by her facial expressions that she can hear us. I sat and sang to her for a long time. It is strange that barely a month ago, we were walking around her house and flipping…
>Heather is living in a surprised state. I’m just surprised that I am surprised about what I am surprised about. It feels good in a wierd and unexpected way. Anyway, have you ever played your ipod while driving by charging it through your laptop computer which you plugged into a converter because it needs to…
> Prov 13:12 “Hope deferred makes the heart sick,but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life.” Christ is to be my longing. If I let Him, then He will fulfill His promises and thus fill me. And when I am that tree of life with hope in the Lord, I will be abiding in…
>Thinking about it on my way to sleep. Got up and wrote it down. No, marriage is not this close to the forefront of my mind. I am a single woman right now and proud to be that. But that doesn’t mean that I can’t think about it. I want more than anything for that…
>I want to go hike and camp in Ozark National Forest. I have riden through it by car and motorcycle more than thrice, but I haven’t done enough hiking in it. I need to put this aluminum hiking backpack to use. October 25ish- when the leaves are turning and it isn’t too too cold. Any…
>I have not blogged in a long time. I have less time than I used to have. And I have enough company that I need not use this space to replace socialization. I get plenty of “social” at work (there are few places more social than a high school-granted they are all 6-7 years younger…
