Old dog, new tricks.

Thanks for following me to the new site. I’ll be posting here from now on. My knowledgeable and helpful sister helped me move everything to here, and I’m grateful for her help. (There’s a lot I don’t know about this sort of thing. She can verify that.)
There’s a lot to know these days. Just […]

Currents

The past has a way of rising up sometimes, like an old stone foundation somewhere in the woods that is revealed one spring after a few days of hard rain. One week, on a walk through the woods, it isn’t there. The next, it is.
Though, at times we expect the past to tip its hand. […]

Bugs, bats and other animals

If anyone noticed that I haven’t posted in a couple of days, it’s because we were hit with a ferocious stomach bug on Thursday night that kept the Girl and I up all night Thursday, and then hit the Boy yesterday. I was too weak even to blog. Startling, I know.

It invites everything, from baskets to batteries, bills to school papers, hair accessories, crayons, markers, party invitations, pieces of my […]

Dresses and boots

I’ve just been to see 27 Dresses with my friend L. Nice movie, entertaining. And a good opportunity to look at James Marsden and Ed Burns. It was just about how I thought it would be, but I didn’t really mind that. The best friend, whom I will have to Google, since I know I’ve […]

Glitches

Apologies to anyone who tried to post a comment. I’ve unchecked the box (a default setting) that required users to register before commenting.  While I would love for everyone to register, I’m happy just to have a few readers!

I’m still not at ease joining the blogging masses. Although, in general, I prefer to remove myself from masses of any sort. I’m inspired by a couple of friends who do it well, and I’m content to do it about half as well as they do. Over time, I will have to make clearer (to […]
