Blissful Bedlam: An Open Letter to All Husbands
http://bennettsblissfulbedlam.blogspot.com/2010/05/open-letter-to-all-husbands.html
Friday, May 14, 2010. An Open Letter to All Husbands. We, the women of the world, would like to express our love, appreciation and adoration to you. You provide for us. You love us, even though you have seen us in the morning right after we wake up, you have listened to our not-so-lady-like breathing or (gasp! No one. That's right. You are there for us, and we adore you. The house is on fire. Would you like me to save your shoes or your craft supplies first? Nothing else is so pressing that it warrants a...

Blissful Bedlam: The Party Barge
http://bennettsblissfulbedlam.blogspot.com/2011/03/party-barge.html
Tuesday, March 8, 2011. My son Mike is totally awesome. He is nearly eleven and gets more mature and more fun to talk to every day. He is very intelligent and creative, and I used to think that he had just the right touch of feminism. This afternoon he was showing me the party barge that he made with his Legos. There is so much detail here; every single piece has a purpose. He was explaining each of the components of the barge but when we got to the barge kitchen my mind came to a screeching halt. When I...

Blissful Bedlam: In Which We Explore the Proper Use of Homonyms
http://bennettsblissfulbedlam.blogspot.com/2009/06/in-which-we-explore-proper-use-of.html
Wednesday, June 17, 2009. In Which We Explore the Proper Use of Homonyms. Morgan has a few of these brush tees that he likes to use when he is golfing. He and Joe were out in the backyard the other day, hitting some balls into the farmer's field, so the tees were still out on the counter. (Things don't get put away in our house for days, even weeks sometimes. That's just how we roll.) Adam was looking at the tees and he held one up and said "Ball? Not thinking about my response at all. Love and Marriage ...

Blissful Bedlam: Livin' Life in the 'Hood, the Motherhood
http://bennettsblissfulbedlam.blogspot.com/2009/01/livin-life-in-hood-motherhood.html
Monday, January 5, 2009. Livin' Life in the 'Hood, the Motherhood. Today has been a normal house wife sort of day. I've picked up dirty laundry, changed diapers, made bottles, snuggled babies and many of the other things that fall into my job description. As I've worked today, I've realized that motherhood has blessed me with wisdom that I wouldn't otherwise have been granted. I have learned:. Crayons, green plastic army men, carrots and olives do not digest. The shriek of a hungry toddler can clear the ...

Blissful Bedlam: In Which I Ramble. A Lot.
http://bennettsblissfulbedlam.blogspot.com/2011/03/in-which-i-ramble-lot.html
Wednesday, March 30, 2011. In Which I Ramble. A Lot. Today included, I look in my emotional mirror and don't recognize myself. And that's a good thing. I'm not sure where it has come from, but I'm beginning to feel balance and control in my life. Is this how the rest of you usually feel? Where once things would have spun me completely out of control, I take one look, assess what I can do, do it, and then go " Meh. Do you ever look at someone else's. Maybe I don't handle things the same way you do. Do...

Blissful Bedlam: Sometimes I'm Not Very Nice
http://bennettsblissfulbedlam.blogspot.com/2010/05/sometimes-im-not-very-nice.html
Wednesday, May 26, 2010. Sometimes I'm Not Very Nice. Get out your judging hats and prepare to look down on me, because I laughed at something inappropriate today and I'm going to tell you about it. Mike had Pack Meeting tonight. For those of you unfamiliar with Scouts, that's the meeting once a month where the whole troop (? I'm not familiar with it, either- gets together. There is an activity, those who have earned badges receive said badges and then there are always refreshments of some kind. The lead...

Blissful Bedlam: The Legend of Lady McBennett
http://bennettsblissfulbedlam.blogspot.com/2009/08/legend-of-lady-mcbennett.html
Monday, August 3, 2009. The Legend of Lady McBennett. In the summer of 2008, a youngish woman came down into the land of Seagull Bay, in the county of Power. She brought with her a husband, two sons, a daughter and a tired old dog, along with the unplanned baby in her womb. And verily, there was much work to be done upon the house which was to be rented. And verily, the heat of the sun did beat down upon the gestating woman, insomuch that she did lay on the couch near the window-mounted air conditioner.

Blissful Bedlam: My Son the Feminist
http://bennettsblissfulbedlam.blogspot.com/2010/06/my-son-feminist.html
Saturday, June 19, 2010. My Son the Feminist. I was weeding in my flower bed this evening and admiring a particularly stunning pansy. I pointed it out to Mike and said, "Look at this! The color combinations, the symmetry, there isn't a man on this planet who can create beauty as well as God does.". He agreed, thought for a moment and then asked, "What about a woman? Do you think there's a woman who could make something as beautiful as what God makes? My son is awesome. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Blissful Bedlam: Why Don't I Just Take My Shirt Off and Light My Hair On Fire?
http://bennettsblissfulbedlam.blogspot.com/2009/06/why-dont-i-just-take-my-shirt-off-and.html
Tuesday, June 2, 2009. Why Don't I Just Take My Shirt Off and Light My Hair On Fire? Pushed their way out of the open gate and scared the chicken away. At this point, I'd like to add that it was raining and in my rush to save the stupid chicken's life I had left the door open. My dilemma: catch the chicken and save her from the clutches of the murderous Cocker Spaniel, or get the goats off of my furniture and save myself from a morning of shampooing my couch and carpet. Now I am facing total humiliation.
