A day in Wilmington, NC (and a very happy mermaid)
Posted in North Carolina, beach, fun, happiness, photograph, photos, water on October 28, 2007 | 6 Comments »
We went on a great day trip today to the coast. Wilmington, at least the historic district, is charming and cute. And then went on to Wrightsville beach. I miss the ocean with every fiber of my being. It was so great to see the water, play in it a little (so warm, I really [...]
I am constantly amazed at our bodies. They are really brilliant machines when you think about everything it does.
My little skin growing army has been busy working on my palms and my knees. Every day when I change my bandages, I encourage the little army, saying Grow skin Grow! One palm is actually looking healed [...]

I think I am in love with you. I am certainly in joy and in happiness and in gratitude with you.
You see, you understand me. You understand food allergies — not able to eat gluten, not able to eat dairy. You understand that just because I have food allergies, that shouldn’t mean I don’t get [...]
Sunday Scribblings — Worst job
Posted in Sunday Scribblings, creative, creative writing prompts, thoughts, writing on October 13, 2007 | 4 Comments »
*Note: Picture has nothing to do with post title
The prompt this week over at Sunday Scribblings is First Job, Worst Job, Best Job. As I’ve just recently written about what I want to be when I grow up, I thought worst job was a good follow-up.
When I was in high school one summer, [...]
A very cool title

Shot from my MacBook’s photobooth
Sitting on my couch
Quiet
Myra, Sam and I watching the world get lighter
Sam is sleepy
Myra is sitting, still as stone in front of the window
Cat pjs and cozy socks
sound of me typing and the house breathing, now and then birds saying hello
A quiet, calm, perfect moment on a Friday morning
