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. [...]

Tomorrow is the last day of my 20s. OH MY GOSH. It’s just so weird. I don’t feel 30. I still feel 23. If you were to ask high school senior Beth where she thought she’d be at 30, you would get an answer that in no way resembles my current life. If you asked [...]

I was going to just type all my thoughts while watching Lost and then publish them, but then I realized that the whole post could be summed up in two entries:

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…” [...]

I know many of you are just squirming in your office chairs waiting for me to post pictures and VIDEO!!!! from this weekend’s Powerboat Show and Sale. I can’t post them yet, though, for two reasons:
I’m waiting for SOMEBODY to scan and email me The Picture because the one I have is not good. It [...]

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, [...]

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 [...]

I wanted to just make the title “Wow,” but then I wanted to double it, but then I decided to just toss the woopsie in there since it appears as though more and more people are stumbling across Onward Hoe! by searching for this very puzzling phrase. Y’all, seriously, if it is something dirty or [...]
