It all started last night at 7:35 when a news bulletin popped up on the screen of my phone announcing the earthquake here in New England.

Then, this . . . → Read More: Quakes Just the fact that I could check so many categories for this post proves my point before I even state it. A few months ago I was information, direction, and "how to" starved. Now, today, I'm in Too Much Information overload. I'm involved in two challenges, trying to jump start both my business and writing . . . → Read More: TMI My husband commutes to the Cape from NY every weekend. When he arrives on Friday night, I hold the door open while he brings in his gear. Last night he went back out to his truck after bringing in the last suitcase.

The dark is dark enough to keep the sensor candles in my windows illuminating each room of the house with golden warmth. A candle flickers on the mantle, blinking at me as I write.

I have a small banner hanging in my serenity room with the Dalai Lama’s definition of tolerance on it.

I’ve written it for two years, through good times and bad. I made a commitment to do it every day, with the intention of examining my writing and becoming a better writer through that commitment.
