Moving on and settling down…all at once
Yes, it’s really 1:45 a.m.Posted by beth on February 27, 2010
Every few months, I get to feeling antsy and what’s-the-point-ish about my blog. Why bother? It’s not like I’m saying anything life-changing or earth-shattering, after all. But then I remember that I just really like doing it, and that some things that happen are just too good to keep to myself. For example, I went [...]
Finding My PeoplePosted by beth on February 9, 2010
I don’t know if y’all have seen or read The Jane Austen Book Club. I thought it was ok, and it was one of those rare occurrences when I liked the movie better than the book, but that is beside the point. Whether you’ve seen it or read it or not, and regardless of how [...]
Church Search 2010Posted by beth on February 8, 2010
So I’ve been in Asheville for four Sundays now, and I’ve visited three churches. This church shopping is pretty new for me. When I moved to Raleigh, I got involved with Vintage21 right away. I might have visited a couple of other churches, but I felt at home at Vintage immediately. I knew some people, [...]
How to Get People to Come to Church with YouPosted by beth on January 21, 2010
If you always want to invite people to church, but always feel tentative about asking and often chicken out at the last minute, here’s a simple five-step process to getting those butts in the pews:
List an item for sale on craigslist. Make it ridiculously cheap, like, say a 30″ TV for $25.
When your buyer comes [...]
Looks like we’ve made it!Posted by beth on January 19, 2010
Well, it looks like I’ve made it…to Asheville, that is. After last week’s craziness, the weekend’s big move and two nights in a row of ten hours of sleep, I feel like my brain is just now starting to recover. I’m hoping that by this weekend, I’ll have found places for all my stuff (either [...]
Seriously, 3 Months? Seriously.Posted by beth on December 3, 2009
Man, it’s like time is moving at warp speed. Before I know it, every day, it’s midnight or midnight:30, and here I am still up, trying to upload some pictures for y’all and then deciding I’ll just do it tomorrow because dang. It’s now midnight:34, and the internet’s being all slow, and I really need [...]
I’m still standin’ (yeah yeah yeah)!Posted by beth on November 21, 2009
Wow wow wow, friends, I am so sorry to have left you in such a lurch all week, but it’s been a busy one. I spent all day on Wednesday working on some articles so I could take Thursday and Friday off. I don’t think I’ve even mentioned yet our trip to Sorrento last weekend. [...]
Rome: A PictorialPosted by beth on November 13, 2009
Hooray! Ok, here we go. We arrived in Rome on Friday evening, and when we arrived at the train station, all we knew was that we were looking for the Hotel Madison, and that its address was 60 Via Marsala. We looked at a map and saw that Via Marsala ran right along the outside [...]
Ack! Ok NEXT time, I promisePosted by beth on November 12, 2009
I know I told y’all I’d do a Rome pictorial the next time I blogged, but I don’t have time right now (it just keeps on slippin’ slippin’ slippin’ into the future, man). So next time, I PROMISE. I’ll do it first thing. Right now, I just want to tell you that we FINALLY got [...]
Weekend GetawayPosted by beth on November 6, 2009
First of all, I just wanted to share with you all how off I am. It’s not just that I can’t remember what day it is. I don’t even have a clue what time of year it is. Earlier this week, I thought it was January or February already, and not because of the weather. [...]
