I Absolutely Adore CatsA follow up about Julius losing his tail. I called the animal shelter where he was left, asked about him, and told her I'd like to come and pick him up. She was hesitant, as it was my ex-husband who left him there after he was attacked. She... See More » (1)

I Love the OceanI came in to work early this morning and decided to start my day walking along the beach. The water was flat calm, and dive classes were dressing up in their wetsuits and gear to get in the water. I sat down a log and just stared at the ocean. I... See More »

I Have Lost a ChildI was going through my son's room the last couple of days and found a few things that I never imagined he'd even keep. Letters from me he'd kept from while he was in college. His sketch book with pictures he'd drawn of me, the family, and... See More »
