Wow, was this ever a long week! But it has been a wonderful week, in its own way. I debated whether to mention this, but I don’t think Sandy would mind. We hit a rough patch, and last week I really thought it was over. But we managed to talk honestly and thoroughly to each…

I’m surprised that I haven’t posted for a whole week. Not much has happened. I’ve pretty much been lazy – my left hand is not much better and my right hand started acting up. So I’ve gone back to the braces about half the time. I really hate those braces. The Back Forty is calling…

Feeling kind of blue – I can’t tell any difference in my hand after three days. The Hand-to-Hand Market was fun, but I guess that I can stop expecting to sell books at these one-day events. I did sell a Squirtly print and a Squirtly card, which did not make up for the very inexpensive…

First, I gotta say, please come out to the Hand-to-Hand Market at and ABOVE the Green Bean in the heart of downtown Greensboro on South Elm St. It runs from 3-10 p.m. and my work is for sale upstairs on the shelves. There will be live music, demos, and TED-like talks on food and sustainability.…

Coffee makes everything better. I went to the farmers’ market yesterday morning, proudly carrying my Friends of the Market logo bag, and I did feel better for it.

Gah. Down widda flu. The students where I work have dubbed this the “history flu” because it has run rampant through the department. It was a super busy week, mostly spent all my energy at work and watched DVDs and Hulu when I came home. One night Sandy and I went to Sticks and Stones,…

I am on my second little pot of coffee. I feel the need for extra caffeine today – my energy level has been low all week. The Back Forty has been calling me and I have done as much as I can, which isn’t much. The weather is beautiful this weekend. I pulled up English…

My focus this weekend is getting healed up as much as possible for my trip and getting organized. I made such a mess yesterday looking for some black linen thread that it looked like it would be impossible for me to ever get my bedroom/studio back to a workable area. But I had to, so…

Everything this week was all messed up. I had a lot of things that needed to be done at work, and had to weigh that against spreading the germs of this nasty bug that I am STILL sick with. My co-workers had serious medical things going on in their families or were sick too. I…
