I’m Living
Today in the car my daughter and I were discussing an assignment she needs to do, a series of photos based around poem or book, with a theme of “family”. I told her, “Oh, you could do that famous children’s book.” “I don’t know which book you mean,” she replied. I couldn’t respond because I had burst into tears. Okay… so THAT was stable. I pulled... read more

The Post I Didn’t Want to Write
When last we spoke I said, “Tomorrow I’ll try to explain what is prompting me to share this now.” That was more than two weeks ago, and clearly I failed to explain on “tomorrow”, but I did try.

Jaw Breaker
Two nights ago, my friend’s dog tried to kill me. Okay, not really, but that is what I keep telling my friend because it is more fun that way. The dog in question is still very much a puppy, and was simply doing a puppy face nip and lick attack, only she did it by frantically (and impressively) launching herself from the ground – 5 feet into the air. I was caught very off guard and did... read more
