I love that a number of you are friends of mine over on Facebook, so much so that I’m more than willing to put up with the constant pokes and mountain of invites to Farmville, CityVille, FishVille, FrontierVille, and PainInTheButtVille to follow your spine-tingling, action-packed status updates. But for those of you over on Facebook [...]

I’ve been MIA from blogging for a really long stretch but I don’t need to tell you that. Those of you who follow me on Facebook know the reason for my absence has been because of my brother Randy. He was diagnosed with ALS in October 2009 and from the start the disease progressed rapidly. [...]

I’ve been so touched (in a warm and fuzzy way) over the past couple days by the comments left here and on Facebook and that I’ve received in email welcoming me enthusiastically back to blogging. I could let all those kind and generous words go to my head were it not for the one eensy-weensy [...]

So here I am. Just like I said I would be when last I posted back in September 2010. September 2010. By my best estimate that’s about a hundred years ago in dog years and about 15 years, 7 months, 26 days and 3 hours in queer years. At least for this one queer. Yep, [...]

While I’m taking some time away from SisterFriends you can stalk find me over at The Passionate Plate: Savoring Life in Small Bites, on Facebook, or at Starbucks. I’m the middle-aged woman on the iPad drinking the iced espresso. Though no new content is being added during my sabbatical from blogging there’s still plenty piled [...]

That’s right. I’m back. But then again, not really. I’m only stopping by to drop off a couple posts and bid you a temporary so long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye, which I recommend you imagine me singing to you while attired in a ginormous pair of lederhosen. I suppose that imagery could either be delightfully [...]

I received word from this blog’s host provider that they will be moving my account to another server sometime in the next seven days. This could potentially result in some downtime on my personal blog (The Passionate Plate), Sisterfriends-Together, and the SisterFriends Community Forum. Should you not be able to access either blog or the [...]

I realized this morning that I’ve been doing this for 15 years and by this I mean blogging before blogging was the word. I started with a home page that became a website that became a blog. New terminology, old message. God loves you. You’d think by now I’d have come up with something new [...]

Tuesday morning I was glued to my iPad for two hours following the live feed from WWDC10, Apple’s World Wide Developer’s Conference. That’s right. I just came out of the closet. I’m a Christian Lesbian Gadget Geek. I embrace my whole self and make no apologies for it. The WWDC is the annual conference (i.e. [...]

As promised or threatened earlier, depending on how you look at these things, I’m going to be putting up the occasional re-post while the schedule around our present lives remains in flux and by all accounts unpredictable at each and every given moment. The selection criteria for deciding what posts I’ll recirculate is based simply [...]
