This book about the color pink is inspiring me as I prepare to write a chapbook on the color. A vivid, richly detailed book on tne subject.

We got here last Sunday, … Continue reading Enjoying New England

To expand my mind and to help keep the brain damage from shock therapy and years of heavy medication from decaying my brain, I'm constantly reading. This is my "stay at home university."

C took me out to lunch today while A went on a playdate to a classmate's house. It's always nice to get out of the house just the two of us. We had invited L to go with us, but she had homework and things she wanted to do. So we lucked into a date. … Continue reading Great Start to the Break
