Day 365: Still
I still have so many boxes squirreled away that still need unpacking. And I still have lots and lots of stuff in storage, which some day I will need to sort through again. And I still have clutter piling up … Continue reading

Day 363: Miss
“Miss” is not for missing a post yesterday–I actually had a blog entry written, and I thought I had hit “Publish,” but apparently not…. No, “miss” has two other meanings for me today. I suppose part of what I’m feeling … Continue reading

Day 358: Unexpect
Yes, another–and perhaps the last–in a long line of grammatical abuses, all in the name of verbification…. Tonight is Christmas Eve. I come from an Italian family, and without question, Christmas Eve is a big deal. As a family, we … Continue reading

Day 302: Sign
So I am back in Atlanta for the next few days, attending a workshop–and visiting with some friends. It’s good to see my friends, that’s for sure, but to be honest there isn’t a lot about the city that I’m … Continue reading
Day 177: Overlook
And I mean that word quite literally, as in: actively not looking at something. In this case–that box of notebooks and papers I just pulled out of the attic. OK, I did peek–very quickly, though. The box contained essays I … Continue reading
Day 173: Detox
Nope, sorry. No lemon juice purges or blueberry smoothies for this detox (though a blueberry smoothie does sound pretty good right about now….) The truth is, I’ve had a bad case of l’esprit de l’escalier for most of the day. … Continue reading
