Christmas Cards

It’s nearly that time of year that folks are sending out Christmas Cards.  I bought my box just yesterday.  I was thinking how nice it would be if I could get a bunch of people to send David a Christmas card.  I mean, if you are already addressing a bunch, what’s one more?  Getting mail [...]

A Photo Expedition

I had a great holiday weekend. Joh and Kevin were in town and we all hung out every night. I am still worn out but it was worth it. On Saturday we braved the cold and went out to take photographs and so I could get a mini lesson from Kevin on [...]

Happy Thanksgiving! Yeah I am day late, but we can be thankful everyday, right? Yesterday I had a lovely and debaucherous day with Mom. She made her exquisite Chicken and Dumplings (sans bones Julia!) and I made the best damn apple pie ever. Technically it was an apple [...]

I had dvds: [...]

Care Packages

I am always on the look out for something really great to send to David.  In addition to my letters, I send him magazines, photographs I’ve taken, photographs of me, unusual foods I think he’ll like, random things.  It’s not often I run into a true gem.  Something really rare that will mean a lot [...]

conservative Christians fear that their kids will be “seduced” into atheism

My news fast continues but every now and then something sneaks in. Like California burning or the dam made of gypsum that is about to burst and sweep my beloved from Mosul to Baghdad in a 65 foot high wall of water.
Today i saw a co-worker forward an e-mail (not to me–he knows better) [...]

Birthday Girls!

I had a wonderful visit with my star-mate Lori this weekend in ATL. Lori’s birthday is tomorrow and some how we usually manage to celebrate together. This year we were pretty laid back. Deborah cooked us a lovely meal on Saturday night.  Wine, good food, and good company–what more could one want [...]
