Sneaking Out After Curfew
I admit it I'm cheating on you. And it's exciting, and it is giving me a new reason to write, and I am feeling pretty good about it. OK there is a little twinge of guilt there too. After all you have been so good to me, and here I am sneaking around behind your back looking for someone else to...

Letting Go, Or Just Going
My subscription is up for renewal in the next week. I have to admit I'm burnt out with blogging here right now. It has nothing to do with mean comments left for others, or outrage at anyone, the fact is that although I like a lot of you here, I just can't summon the energy to write. In fact the I...

Happy, Happy, Happy, well Pretty Happy Anyway
How long has it been? Five weeks and five day that's how long it's been. And now I have my laptop back in my, well, back in my lap! And do you know what this means? This means that I can resume my travel blog and I can use all the little smilies in the tool bar again. I know – it's not life altering...

Courage, My Words
Bravery comes in different forms. I have written about my adventures and some have told me that they admire my courage. Of course others think that I am insane! I have never embarked on any of those high-risk things without a certain amount of caution and fear. I respect fear and listen to its...

Writing or Blogging?
OK – I know that the mechanical process for creating this blog is writing, but when I am discussing my day with my darling man or my friends I tell them, I did some blogging and then I did some writing. I don’t know why they aren’t the same thing to me – but they aren’t. I blog to try out an idea,...

How “Nice”
I tell Rachel, “Be nice to your sister.” Now, there is a word that has lost its value. You hear it often, “that person is nice”. It’s something that we say when there isn’t much to say. Yes I suppose Uncle Casey is nice, he doesn’t torture small animals and remembers to wipe his mouth after eating...

Rabbit Tracks
There are rabbit tracks in the snow this morning. There is hoar frost coating all the trees, and the long grass that has managed to free itself from the snow. Car antennae, phone lines, even light posts have a coat this morning of thick, white, sparkling ice crystals. The rabbits have been running...

Sunny Day, Sweeping the Clouds Away
I heard that Bruce Hart, the lyricist for The Sesame Street theme song, died this past Tuesday. There is something, that lives cell deep in me, that responds to that song, even now when I hear the first chords being played I get a little bubble of happiness that Sesame Street will be on and I can...

It May Be The Invasion Of The Body Snatchers
This is probably the first time - ever – in my life that I have looked forward to cleaning the house. Both my little girls are feeling better and I am too. Now I plan on cleaning this house with every germ killing chemical I have at my disposal, and washing every fabric item I own – on HOT! Everyone...
