Chaya Czernowin conjures sounds from an unknown world.
The Israeli-born, Harvard-based composer Chaya Czernowin, who will be the subject of a “Composer Portrait” concert at Miller Theatre on Oct. 23, has said that in her music “the ear is asked to see.” Her works come across not as a sequence of events in time but as an alien, alluring environment that performers and audience explore in tandem. “Soundscape” is an obvious word for the experience—think of a vessel traversing the ocean floor or the surface of another planet—but the pieces also resemble organisms, which wake, thrash about, mutate, and dissolve. Instruments move from whispery near-silences to guttural shrieks or, at times, settle into expansive, elemental drones. Yet the music does not give a chaotic impression: it seems to develop according to a hidden, encoded logic. These are works at once rigorous and wild, in keeping with the strongest urges of twentieth-century modernism.
The Miller Theatre concert concentrates on a group of pieces, begun in 2003, that Czernowin has designated “Winter Songs.” Members of the International Contemporary Ensemble, frequent contributors to the indispensable “Composer Portrait” series, are playing the second, fourth, and fifth installments of the cycle (“Stones,” “Wounds/Mistletoe,” and “Forgotten Light”) alongside a score entitled “Five Pencil Action Sketches”; two of these works will be world premières. Czernowin’s winter is not an affair of young poets singing of love and death, although the dark psychological realm of Schubert’s “Winterreise” may lie somewhere deep in the background, and the lonely wheezing of an accordion might stir memories of “Der Leiermann,” Schubert’s hurdy-gurdy man. Rather, one has the impression of voices and emotions emerging from a cold void beneath one’s wandering feet: the world under and within the ice.

We prove the conjecture for 3-connected cubic plane graphs and 3-connected cubic graphs on the projective plane. Our proof provides a polynomial time algorithm to ﬁnd the decomposition for 3-connected cubic plane graphs.

If you're looking for specialist dental services, smile makeovers or a specialist to fit teeth implants in Adderley Green ST3 5 we can help you with whatever treatment you might need. Our services can be offered to suit a variety of patients with a wide range of needs. We have a team of experienced dentists who will put you at ease and answer any questions you have about the whole process.
Teeth implants are artificial tooth roots which are fitted into the gum line in order to hold a false tooth in place. Many people have these fitted to improve the look of their smile if they have lost teeth due to an injury or disease. The implanted root is placed securely into the jaw bone to act just like a natural tooth root, holding a false tooth or bridge in place. We provide you with an expert service which includes a range of cosmetic dental options to take care of your oral health. If you need to have dental services or last minute dental care in Adderley Green ST3 5 or you are arranging multiple appointments to complete a cosmetic makeover, we will try our best to cater to your expectations. Whatever you need, we will make a unique treatment solution that sounds best.
Additional specialist dental services such as whitening and artificial crowns may also be offered for our patients. Read more about whitening here http://www.teeth-implants.co.uk/cosmetic/whitening/staffordshire/adderley-green/ If you're lacking any or all of your teeth, dental implants could considerably enhance your standard of living, overall health, and confidence. In order to make the implants as realistic as they can be, they're fitted with an artificial root in addition to a crown. As a result, the implants look and feel like real teeth, and they operate in exactly the same way as well. You’ll be ready to enjoy any food you want, just like if you had got a complete set of strong teeth. These provide more than cosmetic benefits as they offer the overall performance you'd get with a full set of normal teeth. Professional tooth whitening treatments might be supplied for individuals with stains or discolouration on their enamel. This process helps to brighten smiles and give a nice overall look, whilst still appearing natural and realistic.
Contact our team right now if you want to learn more about specialist dental services, cosmetic treatments or one of the additional services we provide, such as the emergency treatment http://www.teeth-implants.co.uk/emergency/staffordshire/adderley-green/ We're able to go over exactly what you'll need and get you to meet with an expert as soon as possible.

One Mom's Moxie: Miracle-Gro® Expand 'n Gro™ - Only The Best For Your Plants!
Miracle-Gro® Expand 'n Gro™ - Only The Best For Your Plants!
Miracle-Gro® has done it again, they have outdone themselves with another great product to help grow your plants up to 3 times bigger than if your plant was in regular soil. Giving you large, luscious plants that can mean more vegetables or more flowers in your garden. The new Expand ‘n Gro™ is so much more beneficial to your plants and it can last years in your soil! This concentrated planting mix can expand up to 3X when water is added, one bag of this planting mix is equal to one very large ordinary soil.
The all natural fibers that are able to hold up to 50% more water then basic potting soil, comes from the coconut coir. The entire coconut is used for food products and the long fibers are used for material purposes, leaving only the short fibers and the pith. Coir is the leftover short fibers and pith of the husk. The use of coir makes for a much lighter planting mix, unlike other bagged soils that can be heavy, hard to carry and makes a mess while trying to pour. Expand 'n Gro™ is so much lighter because the coir is a honey comb like pieces and expand when taking in water and compress back down after releasing the water.
The mix is able to retain water and release it as needed to the plant, which means no more over watering or under watering! You can mix the Expand ‘n Gro™ with soil, and it can be used in the ground or in a pot. Mixing the planting mix with your native soil makes the soil's density up to 40% lighter and creates up to 90% more air space for the nutrients to reach the plant! The mix will continue to improve your native soil for years to come, not to mention easier, workable soil.
I cannot wait to receive my small sample of Miracle-Gro® Expand 'n Gro™! I want to try it on my very small herb garden I am going to start. What a great way to prep your garden for the Spring and Summer! If watched the short video then you can see for yourself just how much the Miracle-Gro® Expand 'n Gro™ actually expands! I encourage you to try the Expand 'n Gro™ for yourself! How would you like a sample of the Miracle-Gro® Expand 'n Gro™? Leave me a comment telling how you would use the planting mix.

I am so hooked on Instagram! Love this beautiful sunrise picture…I actually stopped on my way to work to get this shot!
New project with an old lamp!
Made these really cool sea shell cards this weekend…so easy and so cute! You can read about them here!
And I cleaned out one drawer and one cabinet. I have been trying to clean/organize my home one tiny step at a time. I get sooo overwhelmed with how much I need to do, so I decided each week or weekend I would start by doing one or two small cleaning/organizing job.
I had so many pics on my iPhone that I had to clear out most of them in order to do 15 updates! I don’t understand why I had so many, but thought this might explain it! Baby Brady is so cute!
My great niece is going to be Batman for Halloween and her mom asked me to make a tutu for her to match the Batman top!
Of course I had to make a matching headband too!
Another beautiful phone pic from today…love it!
Stunning sunrise and beautiful fall anticipated. Also a festive Halloween decoration on the way.
Thanks for stopping by and sweet comments.

I’ve been blathering on for months, complaining about people who hate. I love love, but I hate hate, and I hate haters, a category I have recently lumped a large number of people into, taking it upon myself to determine they are terrible for hating. When I realized just how much I hated all of these haters, I knew I had a problem. And I knew I wasn’t alone.
I’m not supposed to hate, right? I’m a Christian and a pastor’s wife, but alas, I’ve fallen down on the job.
I feel it both when the police kill innocent people and when people kill the police who put their lives on the line to protect us. I find myself hating action and inaction. I hate what we’ve become, but also what we used to be. Power and the absence of power. Obsessiveness, and ignorance. Braggadocio and spinelessness. I hate racism and sexism and xenophobia and homophobia and fear-mongering and then I find myself hating the people I have determined haven’t hated that same stuff enough. I hate reading the news, but also not reading the news. Don’t even get me started on the comments section of any article about anything – whether it’s politics or the Golden State Warriors. The comments section is where my fury gets a real workout. I hate inequality and injustice which I think we’re supposed to, but I can feel almost the same level of anger towards everyone from Cleveland Cavaliers’ fans to total strangers who disagree with me on anything, which means, I’ve covered every single one of you. Family, friends, everybody.
And that’s just the darkness contained in my heart…the heart of just one white, (almost?) middle-aged, middle-class, usually chipper Christian mom who wants peace and love and unity, and for everybody to be nice to each other. I want equality and justice, and a better world for my children and your children. But, how can a desire for all that good, thrive and produce in a heart that is taken up with so much darkness?
Which makes me the problem.
I can’t see your heart. I don’t know what’s going on in there, or what’s going on in the heart of GoneFishinPhil63 whose comments on news articles have made me think he’s the devil incarnate. Knowing is not my job and it’s not my business. All I can know is what’s happening in my own heart, and it’s not pretty, and it’s not getting me anywhere, and it sure as heck isn’t helping anybody else, so I’m going to start there. Because what I’ve been doing lately, IS NOT WORKING.
Last night, to add insult to injury, I realized I’ve been reading Martin Luther King, Jr. all wrong, all this time.
My husband, who cares deeply about social justice, and works tirelessly for it as a pastor in San Francisco, posted an MLK, Jr. quote he’s had to go back to again and again, when societal tensions seem to be rising. “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” Beautiful, right? I love it. But I’ve been doing it wrong. I’ve been reading it allllllll this time, and thinking, “Yeah, take that, idiots on the other side. I love love and you morons are screwing it up and securing your place on the wrong side of history. Me and Martin Luther King, Jr. are right again!” Nope, the great Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. seems to have been talking to me.
I’m not going to stop hating, by hating some more. The darkness I feel inside isn’t going to leave so I can make room for more darkness. Nothing will change with the set-up I have right now.
So after taking a good long look at my own heart, I’ve decided to remodel. I can’t do ANYTHING, until I’ve done that. It’s not going to be easy; it’s close to a total tear-down job, and I know I’ll need the Man Upstairs who’s a specialist in this kind of work. There will be dust and noise and I won’t know where anything is for a while. However, the new place will be light and airy, and there will be tons of space for accepting and entertaining friends and strangers, but by design, no spot to sit and read the comments section.
This is a gratitude emergency.
Last year, for weeks before Thanksgiving, my Facebook news stream was full of little things that people were thankful for. This year, not so much.
Ok, so things in the world aren’t exactly perfect right now. The air out there is charged with the uncertainty that accompanies transition and that moment just before hope is lost. On the scary scale, uncertainty is right up there with mannequins and clowns.
Jobs are uncertain, relationships are uncertain, health is uncertain. The news is dismal, the weather is weird, and people are cranky.
However, there is something about today that has just got to be great. Start small if necessary. Was your pancake good? Are you wearing your favorite sweater? Is your chair comfortable?
At the beginning of this year, I wrote about my blanket. I was so stressed and tired that I thought I had lost my mind, with the telltale sign being my proclivity for wearing this blanket as a cape. Eleven months later, I am again wearing the blanket as a cape. It’s fine, I get it. I’m a lady who wears a blanket for a cape as I sit typing in the dark early morning hours. It’s soft and warm and I’m happy to have it, even if it makes me look crazy.
You may, as I do, hate the idea that Black Friday starts on Thanksgiving Thursday. Let’s be thankful we can protest by refusing to go out there and get in a shouting match over a panini press with a stressed out woman in a Santa sweatshirt. My plan instead, is to eat an extra piece of pie and lay around, hard, just to make a point. Join me, won’t you?
The Muppets are back, and early reviews are good. You can say “wocka wocka,” and do your best Janice impression (everybody needs to have a Janice/Swedish Chef/Beaker impression at the ready in their backpocket.) Your kids will get it finally and you can feel relevant again!
Don’t forget the people. Of course we are thankful for the people who love us unconditionally, and support us no matter what. Let’s not forget the ones who show up out of nowhere, and bring a little sparkle to the day, even if they don’t mean to.
Our church campus doesn’t get quiet during Thanksgiving week – it comes even more alive. Part of my job is to organize a large Thanksgiving Eve dinner that leaves me depending on an army of volunteers to show up the night before Thanksgiving and help welcome and serve a couple hundred people. Without fail, I have my annual dream a few nights before the dinner, that this is the year the volunteers forget to show up. That dream, along with the one where I am treated to unlimited shoe shopping, has yet to come true. Instead, on Thanksgiving Eve, I am once again surrounded by people who are happily hauling vegetables, counting spoons and lighting candles, though there are plenty of other places they could be.
And then, sometimes, the most significant wallop of gratitude comes from the smallest moment.
Part of John’s job is to oversee our church’s hosting of a shelter for homeless families the two weeks surrounding Thanksgiving. The campus practically bursts at the seams with our lovely guests and the volunteers who arrive in droves to tutor, cook, clean, sit and visit. I walked in on the action a couple of nights ago….not to lend a kind and helping hand, but to track down someone who had something I needed. I came in with an agenda, stomping around in a hurry, when a shelter guest approached me – a boy about 11, the same age as my eldest son. He shook my hand and introduced himself with a strong voice full of cheer and respect. He chatted for a moment before he excused himself, book in hand, to find a quiet spot in the shelter to read. I wanted to yell after him, “When the day comes, you have my vote!” Instead I stood dumbly staring after him as he disappeared behind a curtain.
“That kid’s amazing; he’s going to do great things in life,” John gestured to the boy, after noticing I’d been struck speechless by confusing emotions – awe, sadness, guilt, frustration that there are kids in crummy situations, and affirmation that kids – any kids at all – are capable of such poise and manners. I had come in to the shelter with my thinking eyebrows and gameface on, and that boy was the one who had graciously welcomed me to his very temporary home, which on most days is just our church’s Fellowship Hall. I left, not brimming with gratitude for my house, hot meals or creature comforts, but thankful that I’d met someone who is out there doing what we are all tasked with….reflecting light, joy, hospitality, and kindness into a world that could really use it.
I am thankful for you! Wishing you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving.
This Christmas tree is so distracting. It’s getting in the way of my desire to do laundry and catch up on chores. I’m having a harder time enforcing bedtime, and snapping orders like “wash your hands!” to whichever grubby little dude is running by me that moment. It’s so festive, and it makes me want to drink hot chocolate and wear a sweater and hug everybody.
Even this week, when things were hectic at work and I STILL did not get a chance to buy stamps, there it was twinkling from the window, like it had been looking down the street waiting for me to come home…tall and sparkly, pretty and happy. It’s close enough to the computer that when I sit down to return emails, or figure out what I want to write about, I usually end up turned in my seat gazing into my fun house mirror reflection on one of the shiny red ornaments. And then of course, I wince when I realize Jacob does this, and I tell him to turn around and focus.
Sure, I appreciate it’s beauty and cheeriness, but right now I can also point at it, and say “Look at that! It’s done. I got something done!” A major accomplishment during a time where I feel like I’m spinning in circles at work and at home, all while fussing and fretting, and talking about how busy I am. Of course, I’m busy, who isn’t? It’s near impossible to find someone who’s not overcommitted or stressed out or even a little grumpy. I’m never grumpier though, than when I run across that person who’s been “done” for a month thanks to the wonders of forethought and online shopping. They’re the worst.
John pointed out that even when you’re a kid, you cannot fully relax until you’ve checked something off your list: face time with Santa. Because up until you talk to him directly, you’re really not too sure if your request has been noted or lost out there in the ether. So yesterday, we sucked it up and went to see Santa to help Zach with his to-do list.
Jake did not want to see Santa. He’s 10 now and has that shag haircut. He reminded me that I promised him last year he wouldn’t have to go again, even if it was just to support his little brother. But there he stood, relatively without complaint, the tallest kid in line and with only the promise of Mongolian BBQ at the end.
The “elf” in the apron who made us very well aware that she hated working evenings and that it was almost time for her break, looked at us like we were nuts for turning down a photo package. This isn’t my first time at the rodeo, you know, I wanted to tell her. We were there on a mission, get in, tell Santa about the “Star Wars book with Luke in it,” and get out – check it off the list. At our mall, right before you get to Santa, you enter a huge snowglobe that, yes, snows on you. The kids go bananas. Laying in it, running their fingers through it and rubbing as much as they can into their hair. One girl even stood under the blower with her mouth open. It took us a minute to remember that this is not in fact, snow. It’s billions of flakes of plastic, possibly asbestos, but certainly not snow. It does not adorably melt out of your hair. It does not taste like the purest glacier water on the planet.
I pull Zachary over to me, and we start working the flakes from his hair and his all-black outfit, including his favorite shirt of all time which is the reason we had to keep him calm – the official World Champion San Francisco Giants, Buster Posey, #28 shirt. Of course, now I see the that this stuff is falling on me too, and I try ducking my head out of the way like I’m being attacked by bees. It’s in all of our hair, but the kid in line behind us is still rolling around in it. I use myself as a human shield between him and Zach when the kid starts yelling “snowball fight snowball fight snowball fight snowball fight!” I dodge and block and duck and swipe, while John shakes his head at me…“You and nature,” he says with a sigh. Now I could have corrected him here, and reminded him that we were still at the mall and not on the frozen tundra, but that wouldn’t have done any good, because this is pretty much exactly what I am like in nature too.
“I heard it’s good,” Santa says looking at me, as I slink away, tugging Zach behind me.
Then I realize, as we often do and sometimes too late – this is it. Right here, right now. I will remember this hour of standing in line with the three boys, chatting and dodging that horrific flakey snow, and Zach advocating on my behalf to Santa, much longer than I will remember a fleeting moment of satisfaction from having accomplished something. Why on Earth, would I want this to be done?
We’re reminded from the pulpit on Sundays that Advent is a time of waiting, preparation, and anticipation. But I don’t think it’s the kind of preparation we’re used to – we share this space with other flustered people and their lists and stressers. What if we stopped focusing on the lists, and enjoyed the part where we’re sharing the space with people who love us, or people who need us. This is the part where we really get to help each other…during the waiting that can otherwise seem like such a chore. I don’t need another 17 days ‘til I can care about you, I’d like to enjoy you right now, while we wait.
Once again, Thanksgiving week has turned out to be one of my busiest at work. And although, some might beg to differ, it’s not retail. Church has been completely abuzz this week with energy and all kinds of activity – people carrying boxes, rolling carts, and yelling questions to each other across the parking lot. And though I might be running around yelling “Wow, it’s busy! And it’s cold! Can you believe how cold it is?!” I totally have the warm fuzzies. Because it seems entirely appropriate to me that church would be a hub of gratitude.
I’ve thought a lot about gratitude, watching all of these people and reading your wonderful, real, funny, tender Facebook updates about the things you are thankful for. And if you sit down and think really hard about what it means to be thankful, I mean really hard, like the kind of thinking you do when you randomly fixate on the chicken/egg dilemma, it will knock your flippin’ socks off.
And when you think that hard, it becomes pretty clear that even though they can sometimes give you a headache or make you want to hide under your desk, the greatest blessings God sends us, whether we like it or not, come in the form of beautifully flawed people and the little people things that they do, often when we least expect it. We are gifted every day without deserving it, and it is such a treat and a humble honor to think of the kind things that people have done for seemingly no reason at all. Invisible little blessings that when they are all put together, are sometimes the things that simply get us through the day, or even change the trajectory of our month. I’m not talking about generic people out there somewhere, but specific people with faces and everything. Know what? That’s you – I’m thankful for you. Yup, you. You might not even know you’re doing it, but you are and it rocks.
Thanks for the homemade soup last week. Thanks for inviting me to your wedding. Thanks for complimenting my hat. Thanks for the nice email out of the blue. Thanks for your understanding that I haven’t been able to return that email as fast as I should and that I didn’t call like I was supposed to. Thanks for the gift card. Thanks for lending me that book. Thanks for helping me out on this event, and that one last year too. Thanks for the advice on that thing. Thanks for lunch. Thanks for making me laugh. Thanks for driving. Thanks for calling. Thanks for grabbing me an iced tea. Thanks for the baby announcement. Thanks for leaving that cookie on my desk. Thanks for sending me that funny video, even thought it wouldn’t work on my computer. Thanks for offering to feed our new kitty when we’re away. Thanks for posting such funny Facebook comments. Thanks for giving me your last Kit Kat. Thanks for reading this blog. Thanks for the flowers. Thanks for agreeing with me. Thanks for confirming that I am not, in fact, crazy. Thanks for digging Twilight with me. Thanks for putting up with me, even though I’m totally annoying when it comes to Twilight. Thanks for being so nice to that lady, when I just didn’t have the energy. Thanks for loving me. Thanks for letting me love you.
And because I care for you – I beg of you. Please don’t go to Kohl’s at 3:00 am. Stay up late and play a game with your friends. Eat a second piece of pie. Watch a movie you’ve seen a thousand times, but do not go to Kohl’s at 3:00 am. It will not make you feel better. It is scary out there. Not because it’s completely dark, and you’re hanging out where nobody has any business being that early in the morning. It’s scary because there are people out there who will not think twice about taking you down if you stand in between them and that talking doll/flat screen/video game system/electronic picture frame. I went out early once– it was for an all-terrain remote control car. I mean, thank God I was there right? I got it. I was a winner. Jake played with it and played with it. And by that, I mean he played with it exactly twice. The closest it got to all terrain was driving over the other toys that lay forgotten in its path. Plus, getting up early is hard.

ok, so things in the world aren’t exactly perfect right now. the air out there is charged with the uncertainty that accompanies transition and that moment just before hope is lost. on the scary scale, uncertainty is right up there with mannequins and clowns.
jobs are uncertain, relationships are uncertain, health is uncertain. the news is dismal, the weather is weird, and people are cranky.
however, there is something about today that has just got to be great. start small if necessary. was your pancake good? are you wearing your favorite sweater? is your chair comfortable?
at the beginning of this year, i wrote about my blanket. i was so stressed and tired that i thought i had lost my mind, with the telltale sign being my proclivity for wearing this blanket as a cape. eleven months later, i am again wearing the blanket as a cape. it’s fine, i get it. i’m a lady who wears a blanket for a cape as i sit typing in the dark early morning hours. it’s soft and warm and i’m happy to have it, even if it makes me look crazy.
you may, as i do, hate the idea that black friday starts on thanksgiving thursday. let’s be thankful we can protest by refusing to go out there and get in a shouting match over a panini press with a stressed out woman in a santa sweatshirt. my plan instead, is to eat an extra piece of pie and lay around, hard, just to make a point. join me, won’t you?
the muppets are back, and early reviews are good. you can say “wocka wocka,” and do your best janice impression (everybody needs to have a janice/swedish chef/beaker impression at the ready in their backpocket.) your kids will get it finally and you can feel relevant again!
don’t forget the people. of course we are thankful for the people who love us unconditionally, and support us no matter what. let’s not forget the ones who show up out of nowhere, and bring a little sparkle to the day, even if they don’t mean to.
our church campus doesn’t get quiet during thanksgiving week – it comes even more alive. part of my job is to organize a large thanksgiving eve dinner that leaves me depending on an army of volunteers to show up the night before thanksgiving and help welcome and serve a couple hundred people. without fail, i have my annual dream a few nights before the dinner, that this is the year the volunteers forget to show up. that dream, along with the one where i am treated to unlimited shoe shopping, has yet to come true. instead, on thanksgiving eve, i am once again surrounded by people who are happily hauling vegetables, counting spoons and lighting candles, though there are plenty of other places they could be.
and then, sometimes, the most significant wallop of gratitude comes from the smallest moment.
part of john’s job is to oversee our church’s hosting of a shelter for homeless families the two weeks surrounding thanksgiving. the campus practically bursts at the seams with our lovely guests and the volunteers who arrive in droves to tutor, cook, clean, sit and visit. i walked in on the action a couple of nights ago….not to lend a kind and helping hand, but to track down someone who had something i needed. i came in with an agenda, stomping around in a hurry, when a shelter guest approached me – a boy about 11, the same age as my eldest son. he shook my hand and introduced himself with a strong voice full of cheer and respect. he chatted for a moment before he excused himself, book in hand, to find a quiet spot in the shelter to read. i wanted to yell after him, “when the day comes, you have my vote!” instead i stood dumbly staring after him as he disappeared behind a curtain.
“that kid’s amazing; he’s going to do great things in life,” john gestured to the boy, after noticing i’d been struck speechless by confusing emotions – awe, sadness, guilt, frustration that there are kids in crummy situations, and affirmation that kids – any kids at all – are capable of such poise and manners. i had come in to the shelter with my thinking eyebrows and gameface on, and that boy was the one who had graciously welcomed me to his very temporary home, which on most days is just our church’s fellowship hall. i left, not brimming with gratitude for my house, hot meals or creature comforts, but thankful that i’d met someone who is out there doing what we are all tasked with….reflecting light, joy, hospitality, and kindness into a world that could really use it.
i am thankful for you! wishing you and yours a very happy thanksgiving.
this christmas tree is so distracting. it’s getting in the way of my desire to do laundry and catch up on chores. i’m having a harder time enforcing bedtime, and snapping orders like “wash your hands!” to whichever grubby little dude is running by me that moment. it’s so festive, and it makes me want to drink hot chocolate and wear a sweater and hug everybody.
even this week, when things were hectic at work and i still did not get a chance to buy stamps, there it was twinkling from the window, like it had been looking down the street waiting for me to come home…tall and sparkly, pretty and happy. it’s close enough to the computer that when i sit down to return emails, or figure out what i want to write about, i usually end up turned in my seat gazing into my fun house mirror reflection on one of the shiny red ornaments. and then of course, i wince when i realize jacob does this, and i tell him to turn around and focus.
sure, i appreciate it’s beauty and cheeriness, but right now i can also point at it, and say “look at that! it’s done. i got something done!” a major accomplishment during a time where i feel like i’m spinning in circles at work and at home, all while fussing and fretting, and talking about how busy i am. of course, i’m busy, who isn’t? it’s near impossible to find someone who’s not overcommitted or stressed out or even a little grumpy. i’m never grumpier though, than when i run across that person who’s been “done” for a month thanks to the wonders of forethought and online shopping. they’re the worst.
john pointed out that even when you’re a kid, you cannot fully relax until you’ve checked something off your list: face time with santa. because up until you talk to him directly, you’re really not too sure if your request has been noted or lost out there in the ether. so yesterday, we sucked it up and went to see santa to help zach with his to-do list.
jake did not want to see santa. he’s 10 now and has that shag haircut. he reminded me that i promised him last year he wouldn’t have to go again, even if it was just to support his little brother. but there he stood, relatively without complaint, the tallest kid in line and with only the promise of mongolian bbq at the end.
the “elf” in the apron who made us very well aware that she hated working evenings and that it was almost time for her break, looked at us like we were nuts for turning down a photo package. this isn’t my first time at the rodeo, you know, i wanted to tell her. we were there on a mission, get in, tell santa about the “star wars book with luke in it,” and get out – check it off the list. at our mall, right before you get to santa, you enter a huge snowglobe that, yes, snows on you. the kids go bananas. laying in it, running their fingers through it and rubbing as much as they can into their hair. one girl even stood under the blower with her mouth open. it took us a minute to remember that this is not in fact, snow. it’s billions of flakes of plastic, possibly asbestos, but certainly not snow. it does not adorably melt out of your hair. it does not taste like the purest glacier water on the planet.
i pull zachary over to me, and we start working the flakes from his hair and his all-black outfit, including his favorite shirt of all time which is the reason we had to keep him calm – the official world champion san francisco giants, buster posey, #28 shirt. of course, now i see the that this stuff is falling on me too, and i try ducking my head out of the way like i’m being attacked by bees. it’s in all of our hair, but the kid in line behind us is still rolling around in it. i use myself as a human shield between him and zach when the kid starts yelling “snowball fight snowball fight snowball fight snowball fight!” i dodge and block and duck and swipe, while john shakes his head at me…“you and nature,” he says with a sigh. now i could have corrected him here, and reminded him that we were still at the mall and not on the frozen tundra, but that wouldn’t have done any good, because this is pretty much exactly what i am like in nature too.
“i heard it’s good,” santa says looking at me, as i slink away, tugging zach behind me.
then i realize, as we often do and sometimes too late – this is it. right here, right now. i will remember this hour of standing in line with the three boys, chatting and dodging that horrific flakey snow, and zach advocating on my behalf to santa, much longer than i will remember a fleeting moment of satisfaction from having accomplished something. why on earth, would i want this to be done?
we’re reminded from the pulpit on sundays that advent is a time of waiting, preparation, and anticipation. but i don’t think it’s the kind of preparation we’re used to – we share this space with other flustered people and their lists and stressers. what if we stopped focusing on the lists, and enjoyed the part where we’re sharing the space with people who love us, or people who need us. this is the part where we really get to help each other…during the waiting that can otherwise seem like such a chore. i don’t need another 17 days ‘til i can care about you, i’d like to enjoy you right now, while we wait.
once again, thanksgiving week has turned out to be one of my busiest at work. and although, some might beg to differ, it’s not retail. church has been completely abuzz this week with energy and all kinds of activity – people carrying boxes, rolling carts, and yelling questions to each other across the parking lot. and though i might be running around yelling “wow, it’s busy! and it’s cold! can you believe how cold it is?!” i totally have the warm fuzzies. because it seems entirely appropriate to me that church would be a hub of gratitude.
i’ve thought a lot about gratitude, watching all of these people and reading your wonderful, real, funny, tender facebook updates about the things you are thankful for. and if you sit down and think really hard about what it means to be thankful, i mean really hard, like the kind of thinking you do when you randomly fixate on the chicken/egg dilemma, it will knock your flippin’ socks off.
and when you think that hard, it becomes pretty clear that even though they can sometimes give you a headache or make you want to hide under your desk, the greatest blessings god sends us, whether we like it or not, come in the form of beautifully flawed people and the little people things that they do, often when we least expect it. we are gifted every day without deserving it, and it is such a treat and a humble honor to think of the kind things that people have done for seemingly no reason at all. invisible little blessings that when they are all put together, are sometimes the things that simply get us through the day, or even change the trajectory of our month. i’m not talking about generic people out there somewhere, but specific people with faces and everything. know what? that’s you – i’m thankful for you. yup, you. you might not even know you’re doing it, but you are and it rocks.
thanks for the homemade soup last week. thanks for inviting me to your wedding. thanks for complimenting my hat. thanks for the nice email out of the blue. thanks for your understanding that i haven’t been able to return that email as fast as i should and that i didn’t call like i was supposed to. thanks for the gift card. thanks for lending me that book. thanks for helping me out on this event, and that one last year too. thanks for the advice on that thing. thanks for lunch. thanks for making me laugh. thanks for driving. thanks for calling. thanks for grabbing me an iced tea. thanks for the baby announcement. thanks for leaving that cookie on my desk. thanks for sending me that funny video, even thought it wouldn’t work on my computer. thanks for offering to feed our new kitty when we’re away. thanks for posting such funny facebook comments. thanks for giving me your last kit kat. thanks for reading this blog. thanks for the flowers. thanks for agreeing with me. thanks for confirming that i am not, in fact, crazy. thanks for digging twilight with me. thanks for putting up with me, even though i’m totally annoying when it comes to twilight. thanks for being so nice to that lady, when i just didn’t have the energy. thanks for loving me. thanks for letting me love you.
and because i care for you – i beg of you. please don’t go to kohl’s at 3:00 am. stay up late and play a game with your friends. eat a second piece of pie. watch a movie you’ve seen a thousand times, but do not go to kohl’s at 3:00 am. it will not make you feel better. it is scary out there. not because it’s completely dark, and you’re hanging out where nobody has any business being that early in the morning. it’s scary because there are people out there who will not think twice about taking you down if you stand in between them and that talking doll/flat screen/video game system/electronic picture frame. i went out early once– it was for an all-terrain remote control car. i mean, thank god i was there right? i got it. i was a winner. jake played with it and played with it. and by that, i mean he played with it exactly twice. the closest it got to all terrain was driving over the other toys that lay forgotten in its path. plus, getting up early is hard.
