I'll be writing more a little later, and posting a blog in the morning. In the meantime, I wanted to share this with all of my readers. My son's Etsy Shop (FlyingJunction.Etsy.com) is offering free shipping this week. If you haven't seen his work before, he painstakingly designs authentic looking, vintage inspired subway signs and bus scrolls featuring neighborhoods in New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Chicago, London, Paris, Seattle and more.

To my regular readers ... I have been away for quite some time, as you have seen. The year got off to a bit of a bumpy start, and then I needed to take some time off and clear my mind. Wanted to be sure that as I move forward I do so with a clear vision of the path before me in mind, rather than just continuing to do what I was doing before out of assumption that I my course was still correct. Refreshed, I am here for you today ready to rock and roll. On with Today's...

A message of love. Love your neighbor. He gave his message to you and to me,...

Surviving a holiday

Thanksgiving Day was the most relaxing Thanksgiving holiday I think I have had as an adult. Unfortunately, the rest of the weekend was spent nursing my dear daughter through a three-day migraine. So sad for her, and stressful for me. I don't mean that as a complaint, it just is what it is. Giving care to someone in that kind of pain while simultaneously caring for a 2-1/2 year old full of robust enthusiasm for life (which is totally great) takes a toll on my body after the first day and a half. Thereofre, I hope you will all...
