As is the case with most weird things, when I first heard about Neti-Pots, I freaked out and laugh-cried and then went out and bought one. For those of you who are unfamiliar with Neti Pots, it’s a plastic tea kettle that you fill with a warm saline solution that you pour into your sinuses. … Continue reading

Hello. My name is Beth and I’m a plant killer.
You guys, I have a serious problem. As I sit here writing this, there are four dead plants in my house. And no, I don’t mean in a closet somewhere. I mean I have four dead plants on display in my house. When you come into my breakfast nook, where I have couches instead of … Continue reading
My Korean Spa Experience: The Beauty of Nudity
(This blog, by far, brings me the most hits on my blog. Most of the search terms are related to nudity. If you’re struggling with a pornography addiction and want help, please visit http://www.xxxchurch.com.) I meet with a couple of friends every week to do a Bible study. Often our conversations veer in definitively non-religious … Continue reading
2012: A Year in Review
Well, friends- Nothing exciting has happened this year. Check back with us in 2013. Love, Beth and Alex I’M JUST KIDDING. Gosh, you’re just so gullible. Yesterday, our pastor made us turn to our neighbor and talk about how we would define this past year. It only took me about .2 seconds to come up … Continue reading
Wherein I Punch Myself in the Face
In high school, I began to joke about getting a black eye. I would talk about what I would say about what happened, where I would go to show it off, etc. I became playfully obsessed. When I went skiing and fell neck-first on my ski pole, I secretly wished it had been my eye. … Continue reading

Now, you should already know that I am not a natural athlete (if you have any doubts, please check here and here.) But skiing is basically controlled falling … Continue reading
Why I Read Like a Pre-Teen Boy
The other day, Alex wanted to go on up to our local library and get a card. So we hopped on the scooter and scooted on up to the local library. While he was getting his card, I meandered on over to my usual section- the Young Adult section. Just to give you a picture … Continue reading
The Demise of Alex’s Car (or Alex’s First Wreck)
I run my car into something at least once every two years. I’ve already succeeded this year by running into the garage at work. Alex, on the other hand, has never been in a wreck, which I find amazing and annoying at the same time. Around the time we got married, Alex’s dad traded with … Continue reading
Birfday
Last, year, around my birthday, I picked up one of these: It’s a “One Line a Day” journal. You write one line a day everyday for five years so you can see how you’ve changed or what you were doing specifically. (Also, last year, I wrote this blog.)I usually write in it at night so … Continue reading
Fit Family Fun Night
Alex and I are getting tired of running. It’s to the point now where we’re running longer than my attention span for movies is so we tried something different tonight. We had a “family bootcamp”. THE SET-UP We set a timer for 30 minutes and put on Pandora’s Pop and Hip-Hop Workout station. If you … Continue reading
