Scan or Pat Down?
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Just me on Saturday, November 20, 2010
I’m scheduled to fly on Monday and am already dreading the long lines and crowds that I know will take place during the holiday week of travel. To make matters worse, everyone seems to be talking about the recent changes in TSA screening, the backscatter and millimeter wave scanning units, and the newly changed “pat down” procedures.
I unknowingly have been screened at least twice in recent memory... READ MORE
National Council of Catholic Women
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Just me on Friday, November 12, 2010
Today’s post comes to you from our nation’s capital, where I have the pleasure of joining my good friend Jeff Young in speaking for the annual convention of the National Council of Catholic Women. It’s been such a joy to be in a hotel filled to the brim with amazing Catholic ladies, here to be encouraged in the important work they do in their home dioceses to support Catholic women. A bit about... READ MORE
Matt Maher and Me
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Just me on Saturday, October 23, 2010
This week, I am lucky enough to find myself in Dallas for the University of Dallas Ministry Conference. Yesterday’s many highlights included two favorite moments: hearing a keynote by blogger Rocco Palmo of Whispers in the Loggia and finding myself in the front row at the Matt Maher concert. We’ve already discussed my Matt Maher fangirl status (shared by many of my F&F soul sisters), but I have to say he gets better every time I hear him. This little video, shot on my iPhone, isn’t top quality but will give you five minutes of sheer joy! At the end of the night, I was even treated to a major celebration as the Rangers won their game and are now headed to the World Series. The conference continues today, so please pray for all of those gathered here in Dallas who are working to share, deepen, and learn more about their faith.

After you’ve finished visiting with Rachel tomorrow in Athens, head North and come see me if you find yourself anywhere near Boston!

This is a casual “come as you are”... READ MORE
Do You Road Trip?
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Family on Tuesday, October 05, 2010
A while ago, we had a podcast chat about traveling with young children, and I mentioned that we’d yet to take a long road trip with our kids. When traveling more than half-a-day’s drive away, we always fly.
That’s about to change. On Thursday, we’re loading the car and driving to stay with Blaise’s godparents in Virginia, a ten-hour drive from here.
I’m excited for our vacation. I’m happy about all... READ MORE
Casual Fridays - Who's On Your Support Team?
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Just me on Friday, October 01, 2010
This week, I’ve been down in South Pasadena doing a few speaking sessions with the Women’s Connection at the wonderful Holy Family Parish. While I’ve been here, my darling teenager has been under the capable supervision of my mother in law Norma, who lives just a few blocks away from us. Coincidentally, Norma works less than a mile away from Adam’s high school and their work/school hours are nearly... READ MORE
Casual Fridays - On the Road
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Just me on Friday, September 03, 2010
In this week’s installment of Casual Fridays, I talk about how I personally prepare for business trips. A few keys for me are taking my morning prayer routine with me, “preplanning” my time as much as possible, checking on the technology that will be available in the places I visit, and leaving a “buffer day” of unscheduled time when I return to my home office. Does your job take you away from home or the office frequently? Do you enjoy business travel, or find it overly disruptive? How do you keep in touch with your family when you’re on the road? Finally, I’d love to hear your suggestions for upcoming installments of Casual Fridays!
