Parking Lot Heroics
I went to the grocery store today for what seemed like the first time in about a year. I couldn’t even get mad at people who said, “There’s nothing to eat,” because, well, there was nothing to eat. Last week was rough around here. For me, anyway. It was full of painting and then some…

You know how I’m always saying I need to get my act together? No? Well, I do. I say it all the time. And do you know why I say it all the time? Because my act is so far from together it’s absurd. Let me give you this ridiculous example. I was enjoying some…
Read MoreBoston and Baseball (and No Blood)
If you read THIS POST, then you know Todd and I went to Boston last week to meet up with a dear friend of ours from long ago and his family. Ed (he will always be Eddie to me, but I’ll tell my story with the grown up version of him) is probably the non-family…
Read MoreBlood, Boston and Baseball
Yesterday as I was picking up the living room (which is code for I was sitting in the comfy chair, playing a game on my phone and strategizing the pick up in my head), Todd came in from the garage, holding a ginormous wad of paper towels around his hand and said, “I may need…
Read MoreWhere I Find God
This morning was cool and crisp and sunny and beautifully unusual for August. I enjoyed two cups of coffee, Facebook, Instagram, Bible study, a crossword puzzle, reading and a little writing outside. I think I could have stayed in the hammock all day, but alas, responsibilities awaited me inside. Part of the reason I didn’t…

I am currently in somewhat of a work lull and I think I like it! I haven’t been pursuing new customers because I’m in the tweaking stages of a few current clients and this allows me to spend more time on Grace & Such. That said, if you are contemplating starting a website or blog,…
Read MoreWay Back Wednesday – About Another June
I’m having a hard time wrapping my mind around the fact that this particular June was four years ago. It doesn’t seem like it could have been more than a couple of years, but alas, it was and so much has happened since then. http://jennifermobleythompson.com/a-happy-june/

We are currently in Bar Harbor, no doubt enjoying all the blueberry things. Todd and I came here about a year and a half ago, but it was a much different trip. First of all, it was just the two of us and now we have Katie with us. Secondly, Todd didn’t get a concussion…
Read MoreWay Back Wednesday – About A Fiddle
I thought this would be an appropriate post for WBW this week. Last week I came across what is now my favorite quote by Martin Luther. Possibly my favorite quote, period. It inspired this picture of my family bible and my grandfather’s fiddle. “Next to the Word of God, the noble art of music is…
Read MoreWay Back Wednesday ~ Feeling Gypped
While the snake post had the most comments, this post actually had the most hits. I was going to ignore that fact and not post it because it’s depressing. I was remarkably whiny the day I wrote it, but with good reason. And while I joke that my whining skills are exceptional – it truly…
