Posted by Lisa Hendey in Just me on Thursday, January 05, 2012
Happy New Year to all of our readers – I sincerely hope that your holiday celebrations were filled with peace and joy. These first few days of 2012 find me returning to my desk and computer after a nice long break over the Christmas holiday to savor time with family and friends.
The excitement and busyness of the past few years, with the growth of my work on the Internet, my speaking engagements... READ MORE
Merry Christmas, Day 8

Madonna, Marianne Stokes
God’s Face took on a human face, letting itself be seen and recognized in the Son of the Virgin Mary, who for this reason we venerate with the loftiest title of “Mother of God.” She, who had preserved in her heart the secret of the divine motherhood, was the first to see the face of God made man in the small fruit of her womb. The Mother had a very special, unique and, in... READ MORE

Moving Stuff Around
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Homemaking on Tuesday, January 05, 2010
This past weekend, Greg and I were busy around the house doing a three room shuffle that resulted in me getting a new home office for the new year. I wish I had a “before” picture of my old space to show you how bad things had gotten in that room before the big move! This photo is of my new space before we began to move the “stuff” in to the room. It’s likely that within a month, I’ll have the... READ MORE
Resolved, or Still Working On It?
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Just me on Saturday, January 02, 2010
To be quite honest with you, even though we’ve rung in the New Year—and I did so in style this year—I have some work to do on anticipating the 365 days that stretch out before us. I love to make and revisit my New Year’s resolutions every year, but somehow this year’s big day seems to have crept up on me!
I found Joseph Pronechen’s featured article today on resolutions to be a tremendous source of... READ MORE
Looking Back
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Just me on Wednesday, December 30, 2009
I love this week of December - it’s always a retrospective time for me. This year has been a treat since we’re “staycationing” at home and luxuriating in hours of rest and relaxation.
One of the things I did this week was take a peek back at my calendar for the past year. Wow, no wonder I feel the need for a break! We had so many highlights during 2009 - so many reasons to count our blessings! ... READ MORE
Ten Questions for 2010
Posted by Danielle Bean in Family on Wednesday, December 30, 2009
Whatever your plans for today or tonight, the beginning of a New Year invites us to reflect on the past and the future.
I posted these discussion-starting questions last year and decided to re-post them this year. You can use them for personal reflection or family discussion:
1. Did I grow closer to God in the past year? How will I grow closer to God this year?
2. What is one new thing I will pray... READ MORE
New Years Eve…FAMILY STYLE
Posted by Robyn Lee in What's Cooking on Thursday, July 09, 2009
As a kid, I always thought that my parents let us stay up until midnight to celebrate the New Year.
But then came the year that my all-knowing older sister spilled the beans. “It’s not really midnight,” she told me. “Dad just changes the clock.”
Could it be true? It was. And it still is.
Each year, aunts and uncles, cousins and grandchildren in my family gather for a New Year’s Eve celebration.... READ MORE
