Life Of Lois: This little light of mine
http://life-of-lois.blogspot.com/2015/02/this-little-light-of-mine.html
Potentially Intellectual Musings by the Mistress of.(fill in the gap). Sunday, February 15, 2015. This little light of mine. You never know where life will lead. Just over seven years ago I had a big decision to make; I found myself newly single, with a 1 1/2 year old child, and pregnant. I was living off the generosity of my family and had no idea what the future would hold. Time moved forward and so did that child inside of me. Eventually the girl arrived. As soon as I held her I knew that I had ma...

Life Of Lois: It's hard—being a woman
http://life-of-lois.blogspot.com/2015/03/its-hardbeing-woman.html
Potentially Intellectual Musings by the Mistress of.(fill in the gap). Sunday, March 8, 2015. It's hard—being a woman. It is International Women's Day and this day always makes me stop and think about what I am doing to further the cause of woman kind. This day is important to me because I am a woman and even more so because I am the mother of two future women. It is because of them that I feel it is my responsibility to make being a woman easier. I can only imagine that the response would be different i...

Life Of Lois: December 2013
http://life-of-lois.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Potentially Intellectual Musings by the Mistress of.(fill in the gap). Tuesday, December 31, 2013. This is the year that I have had to accept that I am officially middle aged. I turned forty and the last of my grandparents died. For some people, the death of a grandparent signals little about their own mortality but the longevity and persistence of my elders and their familiar place in my life, makes their passing a significant remark on the finite nature of my internal clock. I have medals from the 5 mi...

Life Of Lois: Universal kitchen
http://life-of-lois.blogspot.com/2015/05/universal-kitchen.html
Potentially Intellectual Musings by the Mistress of.(fill in the gap). Tuesday, May 26, 2015. The clock on the wall,. Keeps time for another planet. Fast in the summer, slow in the winter,. Under the influence of a different star. I lack the essential astrological knowledge,. To determine its provenance. But one day,. I'll step over the threshold for a glass of milk,. And find an unfamiliar universe. That is an oldie but a goodie- going through some old files today. Written on March 10/2006.

Life Of Lois: Proust Questionaire
http://life-of-lois.blogspot.com/2015/03/proust-questionaire.html
Potentially Intellectual Musings by the Mistress of.(fill in the gap). Sunday, March 15, 2015. What do you regard as the lowest depth of misery? Where would you like to live? The sea, the sea. What is your idea of earthly happiness? Being with friends when I want to be and being alone when I want to be. To what faults do you feel most indulgent? Who are your favorite heroes of fiction? Who are your favorite characters in history? Who are your favorite heroes in real life? Who would you have liked to be?

Life Of Lois: No problem
http://life-of-lois.blogspot.com/2015/03/no-problem.html
Potentially Intellectual Musings by the Mistress of.(fill in the gap). Friday, March 13, 2015. This is the start of my modest campaign to get people to stop saying 'no problem'. I stopped saying it last year when I realized that when I said 'no problem' I was in some way indicating that whatever favour I had done for someone was of little consequence to me and therefore should not be appreciated.

Life Of Lois: September 2014
http://life-of-lois.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Potentially Intellectual Musings by the Mistress of.(fill in the gap). Tuesday, September 30, 2014. Ok- I am well behind the cultural zeitgeist but two days ago I heard the song Wrecking Ball for the first time. And I liked it. Mainly I liked the chorus and the way Cyrus cuts it up on “You wreck me”. Currently listening to it on full volume now that the kids have gone to school. I dislike most pop vdos- its all women slapping their scantily clad asses and pushing their augmented breasts into your face...

Life Of Lois: April 2014
http://life-of-lois.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Potentially Intellectual Musings by the Mistress of.(fill in the gap). Monday, April 28, 2014. I am a time traveller,. Past lives intersect in my nightmares and day dreams. They crash into each other at odd angles. Small town signs on big city streets. Asian smells in country kitchens. Beds unfamiliar and lives unfinished. Evolution and reincarnation with every rotation of the earth. Where I am is where I am not. Body and mind disconnected,. One constantly pulling the other into alternate realities.
