Black Friday and Other Miracles
It was a joyous Thanksgiving spent with family, friends, the fullness of too much food and a glass or two of wine. My 'wind up plan' to our perfect holiday was to mindlessly relax in front of the television until my daughter’s sparkling gaze hijacked me back to reality. Once locking my eyes with hers, I knew all plans for relaxation were doomed because I promised we’d stay up all night and experience Black Friday... (posted by Judi 1 year 177 days ago.)

Gee, It’s A Small World After All [With Facebook]
Late again for an outside appointment, the phone rings. Rushing to answer it, I hear a disgruntled ‘little voice’ in the background sternly advising me to let it go to voice mail. Determined not to allow my impatient eleven year-old to intimidate me, I ignore her demands and breathlessly answer the phone. “Hello?" “Ce Judi est-il Colahan?" Startled, I ask, “Excuse me?" With a... (posted by Judi 1 year 199 days ago.)

Embracing Life Joyfully Despite It’s Setbacks
Kind of quiet on the home front tonight... Gary, my husband, is soundly sleeping in our bedroom while Laura, our child, is intensely concentrating on her latest Sims creation. Restless, I revisit Searchwarp after a long absence and scan through the many articles I’ve written throughout the years under the guise of my many moods. Noticing the variety, it is interesting that each... (posted by Judi 1 year 201 days ago.)

A Prayer Before An Abortion
Today my heart is heavy and I am distracted. I try to concentrate on a deadline for work to no avail. My spirit is restless and I need to pray. Somewhere, at this precise moment in time, a woman is about to have an abortion. Maybe, just maybe, she doesn't realize that a child - her child - is about to be murdered right now. Or maybe she does.... What about the doctor? Does he realize he is about to take a child's life? Or... (posted by Judi 3 years 108 days ago.)

Everybody Knows The Captain Lied
President Barack Obama got the $825 (or $1.2 trillion over a decade) stimulus package through the House of Representatives but the 244 to 188 vote is a hollow victory indeed. Without a single Republican voting for the bill, his high-profile visit to Capitol Hill on Tuesday came to exactly naught - at least on the House side. Obama vowed to change Washington and usher in a new post-partisan era. The mood music and optics... (posted by Judi 3 years 117 days ago.)

The Dark Side of Porn: Choosing Darkness
There comes a moment in everyones life when a choice must be made between right and wrong, between good and evil, between light and darkness. These decisions are made in an instant, but with repercussions that lasta lifetime. My troubles began the day I chose the darkness the day I chose Jack. At age sixteen...suddenly I transformed from a homely wallflower to a full-bodied woman who turned heads. It was every... (posted by Judi 3 years 121 days ago.)
