First, I don't know how to describe this shuffle and slide and hold on to everything-and-everybody-near-me thing I've got going on right now when I try to "walk" - but my mobility has gone to hell in a handbasket in the past couple of days (not that it was great before - but this is...

a love list

jack kerouac was right (sometimes you do just need to get on the road)
I realized this morning that, with a couple of really heavy posts about things that have been going on lately, I failed to finish my post about our fabulous road trip to see my bestie last week. I am so ridiculously lucky and blessed to have my bestie of 25 years or so - and... Continue Reading →
