~:: So Where’s Your Helmet? ::~
Murph comes home tonight, very late. We aren’t picking him up at the airport; his betrothed is. She’ll drop him off. I’m determined to wait up, but will probably be draped ignominiously across my computer, here on the couch. Maybe … Continue reading
~:: Fleeting Fame ::~
Fun day. Played with horses. Woke Chaz up and had a strange conversation. Went to pick her up but couldn’t find her. We ran to the opening day of Farmer’s Market and saw some really cool stuff. No time to … Continue reading

~:: Quilt Fest ::~
It’s that time of year. Actually, it was that time of year. And now, after the work is done, and the running and the craziness, I share with you my highlights of the HMQS. This is a show open to … Continue reading
~:: Now, where was I? ::~

just a note: I have responded to the challenge pieces in the comments of yesterday’s blog – if anybody is interested. Which you certainly don’t have to be. I am sitting at my desk, listening to fourteen string players on … Continue reading
~:: the moments ::~
My challenge, thrown out at you all, was to write a short piece about a defining, pivotal moment. I was pretty sure nobody would do it – who has time to play like this? But to my surprise and extreme … Continue reading
