I guess I’m a lot of things: a wife, a mom, a daughter, a sister, a crafter, a cook, a reader, a writer, a homemaker, a pianist, and probably a lot more too. But at the end of the day, I’m just a Christian trying to find and obey God’s will.
“The heavens are telling of the glory of God; and their expanse is declaring the work of His hands. Day to day pours forth speech, and night to night reveals knowle
dge.”
Today, this very day, is pouring forth speech — bearing witness, declaring testimony, sharing stories — of the glory of God.
Listen closely, soul. Watch [...]
Okay. Here we go (and I apologize if none of these are a surprise to you. I probably don’t have that many secrets):
1. After compulsively eating ice cubes for 11 years, the urgent need to do so suddenly and without warning vanished when Jameson was born.
2. On that note, I’ve never had a cavity.
3. [...]
Thank you so much for all of the feedback — and keep it coming! I have a feeling that we’re all taking notes and are getting good ideas.
Of course, it’s going to take me forever to actually buy something. From the way I agonize over such things, you’d think I was spending my last dollar, [...]
I’m writing this post in the hopes that not all of my audience is in the same predicament I find myself in (getting old and out of touch):
So, Ryan bought me the nano for Christmas. Up until this amazing present, I had kind of just given up listening to music, because I didn’t have a [...]
This has been an unusual Sunday.
Yesterday our car broke down two towns away. Ryan and Jameson had gone to the Goodwill drop-off (we’d spent the day cleaning and tossing), and just short of their destination, the van quit. I’m just really glad it happened with Ryan, and not with me.
So, with no car, getting to [...]
A few things I’ve been enjoying lately:
*
Warm feet.
*
Yummy and challenging reading.
*
Music.
*
Fresh homemade whole wheat bread, Tuscan bean soup, and satsuma tangerines (eating local isn’t so hard when you live in California!)
…And, of course, Trader Joe’s Dark Chocolate Mint Cookie Cheers (which are a seasonal item, [...]
Yup, my name is Danica. Like the race car driver, whose name I know, but whose career I know nothing about. A Nascar fan I am not. Things like reading, playing piano, gardening, cooking, sewing, writing, and keeping my bathroom bleached are more up my alley. Read more »My maiden name is Sinclair (not Patrick), and I come from good stock. (So says my husband, anyway!) I'm the oldest of 9 kids--and my parents are neither insane, uninformed, or Catholic. They're actually the best parents you could ask for. Seriously. (And, consequently, I think pretty highly of my siblings, too, whose blogs you can access from the links below.) I've joined a new clan, though, and my husband and I have been "leaving-and-cleaving" for 2 years and counting. We have a son who you'll read much (too much?) about. Oh. And there are pictures of him, too--hundreds of them--should you care to click on over to my flickr account. I'm a stay at home mom who is redefining that title--I literally stay at home as much as I possibly can. I love to be home! Home, by the way, is in Northern California, although my roots are in a lil' ol' town in Northern New York. Lastly, I take all blame for any ridiculous, outlandish, illogical posts. Anything worth commenting on or linking to is due to my husband's encouragement. In the spirit of the Little engine That Could, "He thinks I can, He thinks I can, He thinks I can,...", and sometimes, that's all a wife needs.
