Carol!!! I miss you so much around these parts!!! I miss your writing! You were the primary person who got me interested in freewriting. We email now and then, but why don't we talk on the phone? I have your number in mine so we must have at some point.
I am on strike from taking pictures on y phone, because I am on strike from using my phone at all. So that shot is from last year sometime, and I zoomed way in so it's all pixelated. But it captures her vim and vigor nicely. And she is coming when she was called. Good dog!
We haven't spoken by phone or I would remember your voice. You must have a marvelous East coast accent. Instead of a Midwest twang, my voice is notorious (and often hated) for an excess of inflection. Think ALL CAPS and italics in every sentence....
Wow, have I ever shut down. You stopped the phone photos (smart! Smarter than iAm!).
My dad's demise, after the loss of three sisters, took a toll on me.
I have to shake off the sense of futility and frustration and just keep moving, keep doing.
You are an inspiration!!!
You do so much, and you are so good at everything you do. The MASTER. At anything and everything!
I'm still reading a lot of gardening, homesteading, foraging, and herbalist blogs.
Saving ideas. Someday I'll accomplish something!
I'm so glad you took up freewriting and I hope you get back into it again. You really ran with it and did great things! Your quirky characters and anecdotes never fail to amuse and enlighten!
