make me smile

Make me smile…

Ride bikes with me to the University Center. Where we stop by our favorite bookstore and C&E spend their monthly book allowance as the owner chats with them about which books they’ve read lately. Then go in Trader Joe’s and buy some snacks for the weekend and a few necessities (milk, blueberries, goat-milk yogurt). Riding home we pass the kids’ art teacher walking to yoga class. Smile and hear her admiration that we ride our bikes to the store. Let E lead the bike brigade and watch her making good choices about crossing busy intersections. Arrive home out of breath, but happy. And see the newest pink rosebuds and double impatiens blooming on the porch and the clematis vine that has recently ‘woken up’ and is starting to climb the wall.

About Me

About Me

Hi there friend, and welcome to my blog. I started writing on the internet two decades ago. Since then I've started and finished a PhD program, left the Mormon church and became a Quaker, got divorced, remarried, found full-time work in academia, took up rock climbing and outrigger canoeing, and traveled across the globe (China! Belgium! Italy! Chicago! Montana! Portland! Gettysburg! and oh-so-many points in-between). This blog is eclectic and random--it has poetry and cooking and books. And cats. And flowers. And the ocean (my ocean). But in that sense it's a good reflection of me and my wide-ranging, far-reaching, magpie curiosity.
