Moving on and settling down…all at once
New Goal for MarchPosted by beth on March 12, 2010
Goal: Eat all the food that is currently in my house before buying any new food.
I’m not talking about all the flour and confectioner’s sugar and vanilla. God help me if I have to use all that vanilla before I buy any other food. I bought an ENORMOUS bottle of it nearly two years ago [...]
Well Now That That’s OverPosted by beth on March 9, 2010
Thirtieth birthday – Check. And now that I’ve gotten that out of the way, I can go back to being 29. Here’s what I’ve decided: There is nothing wrong with the number 30 or the age. I’m not upset that I’m 30. I don’t long for younger days or miss the glory of my youth. [...]
My 20s. All of them.Posted by beth on March 6, 2010
And just like that, my 20s are over. Man, what an awesome decade. I’m going to try to do a recap of all my 20s birthdays and hit the highlights of some of the incredible things I’ve had the opportunity to do in the last ten years. I’m old, though, so I might not remember [...]
Blast from the PastPosted by beth on February 27, 2010
I was reminded of these little films on Monday at my writing group, and then I was telling Rae about them later – particularly #11, Bluebirds in Spring. But they’re all still so good (well maybe not #5 – it’s not my favorite). If you haven’t seen them in a while, do revisit them. If [...]
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner FAILPosted by beth on February 25, 2010
It’s always a pleasure to catch up with either of my Joshes, but last night, Whitney-Josh had THE most amazing story for me. Ever. And let me just say that you know a story is going to be good when someone like Whitney kicks it off by saying, “So I was watching the Tyra show…” [...]
Thoughts on LentPosted by beth on February 17, 2010
You know, Lent means a lot of things to a lot of people, but today, for me, it means that my roommate and her boyfriend gave up sweets before finishing off a bag of Double Stuf Oreos, leaving the rest for me!!
Also, I’m beginning to think that giving up Facebook is too easy, and that [...]
Well That Was FastPosted by beth on February 16, 2010
First of all, I’d just like to add to the title – That’s what she said.
Ok, now that that’s out (that’s also what she said), I was just lamenting yesterday how I had no birthday plans, and now I’ve got THREE parties in the works!! That’s one for every decade! I love it. So what [...]
T-Minus 19 Days and CountingPosted by beth on February 15, 2010
So…my birthday is in less than three weeks. And it’s not just any birthday. It’s my THIRTIETH BIRTHDAY, and I don’t have any plans. That is either the biggest relief or the most depressing thought ever. On the up-side, I don’t have to bake a million cupcakes or clean my room or take a shower [...]
What has two thumbs and internet at home??Posted by beth on January 25, 2010
That’s right. THIS gal.
The Charter guy came over this afternoon and hooked us up just in time for the afternoon soaps, which I promptly turned off. I’ve been trying to get the wireless set up with a password and everything, but I seem to have failed in choosing my own password and have had to, [...]
Dreamy ThoughtsPosted by beth on January 23, 2010
I’ve had some really weird dreams lately, which, you’ll know if you’ve been reading Onward Hoe! for a while, is not at all abnormal for me. I can’t remember what they’ve been exactly. I know a couple of nights ago, I was at some sort of performance camp for all ages. We were all learning [...]
