December 20th, 2010 Cape cod (and only cape cod) is getting 8-12 in of snow. We are in the middle of a coastal storm.

December 15th, 2010 ..and then there’s me. I get really overwhelmed by the amount of people that need help all over the world. In every town, including mine, there are people with no home, no food, dying of cancer, as well as defenseless animals and children suffering, while I have way more than I need to survive. Though . . . → Read More: So Much Bad in the World…
December 14th, 2010 When I opened my eyes at 5am, I smelled it. The candle nightlight was softly glowing, the early news on the tv was quietly speaking of dangerous diet pills, and I felt the coolness of the air in the house on my face in the hour before the heat kicks in to raise the temperature . . . → Read More: It Smells Like Christmas…
December 12th, 2010 …came and went and I just realized I didn’t put my pen to paper. Normally I’d beat myself up a little over that, but the nature of this quiet Sunday after a whirlwind ride to and from New Hampshire yesterday, won’t let me treat myself that way today.
