Beck's Three: Speechless (Originally published December 2009)
http://becksthree.blogspot.com/2013/12/speechless-originally-published.html
Monday, December 9, 2013. Speechless (Originally published December 2009). I enjoy the gaiety of the Christmas season as much as the next person, but I have to admit I'm finding it harder and harder to keep a reflective spirit this time of year. Radio stations, in an effort to spread "holiday cheer," play so-called Christmas music round-the-clock. But, how many of these songs have anything to do with the birth of our Savior?

Beck's Three: On dishwashers, snake-sniffing, and superfluous language
http://becksthree.blogspot.com/2013/11/on-dishwashers-snake-sniffing-and.html
Wednesday, November 20, 2013. On dishwashers, snake-sniffing, and superfluous language. Some snippets that are unworthy of a post of their own but that need to be freed from the clutter of my mind:. I've been playing this game lately with a steak knife that someone. A few mornings ago I commented to David that this was why there were no clean spoons. I said, "I'm not accusing you, but someone put something in the dishwasher last night and didn't press start.". Does he find all these snakes. Snakes. Y...

Beck's Three: A Truth I can rest upon
http://becksthree.blogspot.com/2014/01/a-truth-worth-standing-on.html
Sunday, January 26, 2014. A Truth I can rest upon. It's no secret that I've been battling depression over the past year or so. A few months ago, I began to notice some slight progress in moving out of the darkness, but, like most journeys in life, it's been touch-and-go. Many days have felt like one step forward, two steps back. But still I sang. Today, God spoke to my heart in a way I have not experienced in a long. Wanna know what He said? Other times, you can barely crawl through the valley and whimpe...

the many maxeys: June 2009
http://themanymaxeys.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Jun 29, 2009. June is almost over and it has been busy, busy, busy. A trip to the mountains, visitors, a stomach bug and another trip to the lake with our small group. The summer is going by way too fast! We leave June a little more rested, tanned, tired (thanks to Henry and his new tooth :) and refreshed. The pictures tell of our travels. Mountain trip- my mom and AB walking the roads lined with blueberry bushes. Pontoon boat ride on lake Burton with my family. Dinner out, the five of us in the mountains.

Beck's Three: On Just Breathing (But also using the word "bowel" . . . sorry.)
http://becksthree.blogspot.com/2013/12/on-just-breathing-but-also-using-word.html
Tuesday, December 3, 2013. On Just Breathing (But also using the word "bowel" . . . sorry.). Sometimes I do Lamaze even though I’m not giving birth or even carrying a child. At least, it’s what I imagine Lamaze breathing to be, having never actually given birth sans epidural. And then there are times like now. I’ve just come out of a good season; during the entire month of October I suffered only a handful of attacks. But November and December have ushered it back with a vengeance. But focusing on the br...

Beck's Three: How God Saved My Life (A long story)
http://becksthree.blogspot.com/2008/09/how-god-saved-my-life-long-story.html
Saturday, September 20, 2008. How God Saved My Life (A long story). Um, no. He said, "It's actually quite loud. Are you sure no one's ever mentioned it." Of course, I'm very sure, so he does a chest x-ray. Here comes my next "Do not pass go" card. My heart was enlarged, so he sent me straight to the cardiologist at 5:30 that afternoon. Alarm bells going off in my head . . . he called on a Sunday? And he left his home number? Those are never good signs. At this point, I still wasn't even 100% sure what an...
