“I asked how can you ever be sure that what you write is really any good at all and he said you can’t you can’t you can never be sure you die without knowing whether anything you wrote was any good if you have to be sure don’t write” – from Berryman by W.S. Merwin When I go too long without writing, I get restless. I get so restless that it makes me irritable. More irritable than usual. Something’s off... Read more

7 Quick Takes Friday

Last updated on: July 22, 2011 at 8:00 am   By Sarah Babbs

Check out Jen for more quick takes! 7. Holy Rolling Baby! After struggling for nearly two months to roll from back to tummy, Maggie finally figured it out, and this week has been a blast! I set her down on the rug, turn around, and when I look back, she is half-way across the room, facing the opposite direction that I set her down facing. The pack and play has been turned into a play-yard, and she is getting so... Read more

7 Quick Takes — NFP and Harry Potter

Last updated on: July 15, 2011 at 12:39 pm   By Sarah Babbs

Visit Jen for more quick takes! 7. Here I am, all set in just a mere 8 hours and 15 minutes, to see the LAST Harry Potter film ever. Even though I’ve had two Potter posts this week, I was going to devote my quick takes to all things Potter, when I came across this. It’s a lovely article by Jen about NFP. But what makes me want to change into the Hulk and overturn some Buicks are the comments... Read more

Just in case you haven’t seen/read Harry Potter, this short video has a great montage from all the films. If that doesn’t make you want to check them out, well, then you’re a loser. Just kidding. Sort of. Read more

The One In Which It All Ends

Last updated on: July 13, 2011 at 2:03 pm   By Sarah Babbs

Yeah. Sorry for the dramatic title. The “It” to which I refer is Harry Potter, not the world, or my life, or anything like that. It was the summer of 2003. I was working at a summer camp, and all around me, little girls in hats and shorts were carrying around huge books with blue covers. “What is this book?”, I thought to myself. It probably weighs as much as some of the girls do. Then one of them handed... Read more

7. I should have known better than to sign up for weight watchers three days before cycle day 1. All I want to do is scarf chocolate, and make cookies. Not to mention the whole bloating thing. Not the best motivation to track my eating. 6. Speaking of which, I have my first weight watchers meeting tomorrow morning. I joined with a friend on my block who has had major success with ww in the past. She’s a new mom... Read more

These Hands

I’ll be by your side wherever you fall, In the dead of night whenever you call, please don’t fight these hands that are holding you…  – tenth avenue north I listen to a radio station, K-Love, and I really enjoy it very much. It plays all christian music, and while some of the songs are cheesy, I never feel like I need to scrub my ears out or go to confession while I’m listening to it. The lyrics above are... Read more
