Folks, I take my responsibility of rounding up the ring very seriously. However, I am not sure I am going to be able to do it today as my motion to have Christmas Eve and Day moved to July... 2008... was denied.
Please, please tell us in the comments what your blog is up to and what posts we should definitely check out.
Thanks friends and if I do not emerge until afterwards...
Merry Christmas!
I'm blogging about multiple things: cat blogging about the Christmas tree, making Buche de Noel, and the stress of being three and making Christmas cookies.

ReplyDeleteI wrote about having to behave myself because of wearing my reindeer antlers, and my nervousness over adding to my family. Any experts out there in introducing an old dog to a new dog?
I wrote a post in answer to the question, 'How do I get faith?' because I think the question sounds funny.
ReplyDeleteStacey at First Year Minister has a great piece on (not) sending Christmas cards, and I posted in the middle of the night about (not) telling stories.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all...if you're on the East Coast and are reading this right now, you can still catch most of "A St. Olaf Christmas in Norway" -- excellent. It's scheduled for 10 pm EST on many PBS stations, but check your local listings.
ReplyDeleteAnyhow, today I blogged about the perils of bearing Christ into the world, and about how the Virgin Mary sets and example of fierce, defiant motherhood.
And, "for something completely different" (really), I shared a recipe for spice cookies that have turned out to be a special treat for the four-legged third of my household. (You may be alarmed at the use of, and quantity of, black pepper in this recipe. "Be not afraid" -- it adds a nice zip that melds well with the other spices.)
I've posted a request for prayers for my dad, who had a subarachnoid hemorrhage today and has been diagnosed with a brain aneurysm. He's being transported to Toronto in the morning for a procedure to correct the aneurysm.
ReplyDeletePrayers would be much appreciated...
I have recently blogged about Pauls letter to the Romans, have done a review of 2005, have written something about Advent and smacked a penguin.
ReplyDeleteCome by and take a look.
I'm thinking about highway travelers and home grown pharisees.
ReplyDeleteI blogged about my daughters, DramaQueen and Firecracker, and explained their new blog names. Soon I will have to blog about the absolutely mammoth temper tantrum Firecracker graced me with in the KinderCare parking lot yesterday. Her name fits her well.
ReplyDeleteDid I blog yesterday? Can't recall. Too busy.
ReplyDeleteI added a post about the Winter Solstice.
ReplyDeleteI am adding to my reflections on Paradigm Shifts in the church.
ReplyDeleteI seemed to have channeled a dead gangsta rapper last night in my post entitled, "Maced...with Grace." It's pretty funny if I do say so myself...especially considering I'm a middle-aged white woman. : )
ReplyDeleteMy cousin max (8 months but "adjusted" just 4 months) has 8 weeks worth of new pics. Also, I am leaving for Bethlehem in two hours. AAA! Pray for safe travels and peace in a troubled holy place.
ReplyDeleteoh, i forgot. i also made my first ever gingerbread house yesterday. there are pictures...and evidence of the horrendous mess we very callously left most of to be cleaned up by our houseladies after we finally finished near midnight.
ReplyDeleteI blogged about where I used to work...but more importantly...I blogged some VERY IMPORTANT TRAVEL RULES that you ALL should check out and make sure you are compliant with.
ReplyDeleteThank you,
Girl
