To Scot,

I am an empty nester after 30 years of parenting.  It is a big transition but my writing and my graduate work is propelling forward with great potential.   Thanks for visiting me! Be blessed, Raine

Making the transition from single-parent to single adult has been incredibly more difficult for me than I imagined it would be. Now that my son has gone on to college, I find myself in the process of redefining who I am and what I am becoming. Thanks for commenting on my recent post.

Raine, it is sometimes

inevitable to take detours during our lives, but you have now come back to what you want to do. In terms of a search, I often wonder why I am here, but it is so easy to get sidetracked by all the problems we face.

Thanks, mmm-w!

That is part of the reason I am here.  I am a true writer and artist; my words are meaningless if I cannot share them with others.  As for the strength of my article...maybe that is the problem , I am really passionate about most things-especially my writing.  Of course, if read earlier-Effexor is my drug of choice.  (and i am feeling much better now)

As for James Kavanaugh, I am not the one to give the complete skinny on him.  Maybe other bloggers may recognize the name.  I did Google his name and got several hits.  I just checked Google again and here is a link you may find interesting.  www.googlism.com/what_is/j/james_kavanaugh/  He has a kinda cool background (so I read); priest turned poet and philosopher.  You know in the 196000000s when bucking the system was the right thing to do?.!  As a writer I am drawn, connected by the words of another person.  Kavanaugh speaks to me past and present.  When I die, those words will be my obit. 

Back to Kavanaugh-am I the oddestt...I  mean the oldest blogger on the block that can remember the 1960s?  Answers and introductions, please!   (I promise I won't bite-I leave that to Noel, my westie!)  Good girl!

Excellent, I can understand why you would see the value in the written preface. They are thought provoking and powerful. OHIO STATE?? ALAS , ANOTHER BUCKEYE!

Somehow I believe you will find a way to write that book!! We buckeyes find a way to do many things~~
