The months of 2022 have gone barrelling past at top speed. I've had thoughts I've wanted to write into posts, but I haven't had the bandwidth to follow through. In lieu of another caps-lock comment inspring Mother's Day post, I am re-sharing "Some thoughts on Why I am not a Christian Scientist" by Rev. Evans." … Continue reading Happy Mother’s Day: Christian Science is a foe to the home

The Perfect Christmas (repost)
This post was originally published November 20, 2012 (my how things have changed, and yet, in may ways stayed the same). We have resolved the tree crisis. This year my Inner Perfectionist was/is too burnt out by COVID concerns to care much. I was too exhausted to light candles to celebrate the Solstice, perhaps another … Continue reading The Perfect Christmas (repost)
reclaiming Reality from Ms. Eddy’s Matrix is an on-going challenge
There is a new Matrix movie coming out this December, and I'm kinda excited about it, so I'm going to re-share an older post from April 2014 because I can. I'll see it after it comes out -- eventually, from the comfort of my living room, and I might even have a few thoughts about … Continue reading reclaiming Reality from Ms. Eddy’s Matrix is an on-going challenge
Nine Years Later
This post is set to automatically go up on the nine year anniversary of this blog. I'm writing it a month or two in advance, because I'm not sure where I'll be or what I'll be up to when it happens. A month or two in 2021 can feel like a lifetime. When I first … Continue reading Nine Years Later

Opting out of Mother’s Day
I recently got an email from a company I have used in the past telling me I could “opt out” of Mother’s Day promotional emails. I may have cried. I’ll be honest, I would have preferred the default to have been requesting people to “opt in,” but the flood of relief I felt when I … Continue reading Opting out of Mother’s Day
So how DID you hurt yourself?
Before anyone gets too worried, I'm going through my old drafts. I'm doing mostly ok at the moment, I should be more diligent about my PT exercises, but that's not really new either. "So how did you hurt yourself?" I really love that question. It came up in my most recent video appointment with my … Continue reading So how DID you hurt yourself?
mindfulness (little “m”)
I have struggled with the concept of “mindful” for years. It usually comes with a lecture, or a demand disguised as a request often framed as a learning opportunity. It has been used to override boundaries, and bypass requests. The concept is often used in Christian Science to blame, shame, undermine, and side-step the actual … Continue reading mindfulness (little “m”)
