One Hand Typing: When the student is ready...
http://onehandtyping.blogspot.com/2009/01/when-student-is-ready.html
What happens when you have an infant and a long-denied desire to write? A lot of one hand(ed) typing. Friday, January 16, 2009. When the student is ready. I am currently reading a book that I believe will change my life. Considering the years I have spent reading self-help and how-to books, believe me when I say that I do not make this claim lightly. The book is called Mindset. You can guess which one I have. Once I had a taste of being the best, well, I wanted to stay the best. And that meant avoidi...

After Words: Like Sand Through The Hour Glass

Talking back to the happily ever after. Laquo; Stuck in a Moment. Like Sand Through The Hour Glass. I know the neglect at this blog is epic, and I really do hope to find my way back to it in a regular way, but in the meantime. Halloween was much easier this year. The Boy decided to dress as Harry Potter sometime this summer. Our only argument was whether or not he would wear the Gryffindor tie (Mom, I dont work in an office; I dont need a tie.). He relented for a couple of pictures. What will I be like?

Talking back to the happily ever after. Are You There God? It's My Daughter, not Margaret.

Talking back to the happily ever after. Like Sand Through The Hour Glass ». Stuck in a Moment. Yesterday I tackled a long overdue task: cleaning out the closet in the office/extra bedroom. It contains hitherto unopened boxes from when we left the city for our suburban rental house in 2008 that we never managed to open when we settled into this house in 2009. Among the treasures I found was this:. Posted at 09:51 AM in Childish Things. You can follow this conversation by subscribing to the comment feed.
