Casual Fridays - Are You a Naysayer?
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Just me on Friday, March 11, 2011
This week, I found myself in a protracted business meeting that caused my blood pressure to rise as the minutes ticked by. The cause of my frustration? A “no person”.
In my family, we were taught to “always err on the side of generosity” by two parents who said “yes” to requests as frequently as possible and practical. I think this predisposed me to being a “yes” person. Admittedly, this gets... READ MORE

The Facebook Dilemma
Posted by Rachel Balducci in Family on Monday, September 20, 2010
I have a love/hate relationship with Facebook. On the one hand, I love being connected with so many people, seeing all kinds of photographs, reading snippets here and there about a wide variety of random tidbits of information that has zero impact on my productivity.
On the other hand, see above.
Facebook is a vortex that sucks me in, and whenever I do have to enter the gates I brace myself. It can... READ MORE
You've Got (Too Much) Mail
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Just me on Tuesday, August 10, 2010
I’m happy to be at home, seated in my lovely office after nearly two consecutive weeks of wonderful Catholic travel. Hugs from my three men and a night in my own bed are the best welcome in the world. I woke up this morning, ready to take on the day.
And then I logged into my Gmail account, checked Twitter, popped on to Facebook, and felt like going back to bed.
Wow, the stacks of virtual “to do”... READ MORE
Hair Happiness
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Just me on Thursday, July 01, 2010
My kids are happily occupied with apple slices and a pile of books. Laundry, tidying, and dinner prep are on my to-do list today. I should seize this time.
But it’s been twenty minutes since my shower and my hair is at the crucial point between wet and dry. My list can wait. I head for the bathroom to grab my blow dryer and round brush.
It takes about ten minutes to blow-dry my hair. I’ve got a cut... READ MORE
Picking It Up
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Homemaking on Thursday, February 25, 2010
In today’s podcast, I mentioned that I’m trying a suggestion from Lisa’s new book The Handbook for Catholic Moms: keeping my house fairly tidy during the day.
Bryan and I work together to make sure that our house is orderly before we go to bed every night, and I also attempt to have the place decently tidy when he gets home from work. But putting extra effort into keeping the house in order during... READ MORE
When Things Calm Down…
Posted by Lisa Hendey in Just me on Friday, February 05, 2010
This week has been a whirlwind of fun and excitement for our family. Many of you know that I’m in the midst of the launch of my first book, The Handbook for Catholic Moms: Nurturing Your Heart, Mind, Body and Soul. Never in a million years would I have imagined that I—a stay at home mom from Fresno—would have some of the experiences that I’m living through these days. Every moment is a true blessing...

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
