Can't Sleep
Insomnia is my friend. She hangs around like she trolls the internet. I can't tell her she is not welcome to land in my swimming pool, because she is just a silly goose guest who comes when she pleases and misplaces lasagna stained dishes on coffee tables. I tried all the things I know to make her... Sign in to see full entry.

I feel pain on my lips. The upper is not cracked or bleeding, the scar tissue is from the grief. How long must I pull thorns from my fingers? Is there a measurement when I stop missing you?

UnChristmas
This Christmas I am not going to be home. The kids will be in the even years (with Dad). Even years for me have been a heartache and struggle about making new traditions. This year I decided not to buy the 15 foot tree. I opted not to climb on a ladder in the rain. I chose not to get all the boxes... Sign in to see full entry.

Living without regrets. I woke up thinking about the snow geese. They were feeding off the just tilled cotton field outside of Scottsdale. I wanted to turn the rental car a Jeep Comanche or Commander God knows around. To fly off the 101 north. Find a side road to lead me there to take photographs of... Sign in to see full entry.
