Five things I thought about during my morning run:
1. Sweat pouring. Heart racing. Life is good. 2. Still thinking about going to Pa. next weekend. Looking for a cheap place to stay. Dad's place is already full. Mom doesn't have the space. And Becky's basement is full of mold–which I couldn't handle because I am so allergic. 3. Thinking about Sept. is not pleasant. Eric is working every weekend into the middle of October. 4. I've been doing a lot of scrapbooking research because the mysteries I'm writing...

1. Going to meet another local mystery writer for lunch today. Should be fun. 2. So, I wrote about 3,000 words yesterday. I love when that happens, but it wore me out. So today, I'm stepping away from the fiction and working on my blog. Stay tuned. 3. I can't believe how well the transition to middle school is going for Emma. So far, I am very impressed with the school and my daughter. 4. I think that I may just need to find a quantum physicist to interview. Anybody know one? 5. ...

1. "Let the story be told. Let them say what they want." 2. Great morning for a run. 3. My neighbor who is the same age I am was rushed to the hospital two nights ago because her arm swelled twice its size. Blood clot. Her doctor said it was from repetitive weight lifting. A few years ago, she made a major lifestyle change and began to excercise and eat well. Joined Weight Watchers and a gym. This is the second time she's been rushed to the hospital since then. The first...

1. Okay. So the whole Weekly Religious Education Program has reared it's ugly head again in the papers. And this time I am not involved. Glory be. 2. For those of you who don't know, our local PUBLIC schools are involved in this program, which busses children to a local church for a healthy dose of their form of Christianity. A few years ago, I took them to task in my column. The backlash wasn't pretty. I'm still dealing with it and this happened what…6...

1. It's much harder for me to run if I wait until I put Emma on the bus. I don't know why. 2. But I do like the staggered schedule in the afternoon. Tess gets home about 45 minutes before Emma, which gives us time to visit and maybe get some homework done. 3. The Ren Fair was sort of beat. I mean it was okay. The girls liked it. But it was very small. And the food was pretty bad. But the highlight of the day was this man traveling around the fair in nothing but animal skins covering...

1. Nasty humid out here. 2. "Maybe it's got nothing to do with me." Sometimes when you are mistreated there's an explanation that DOES have nothing to do with you–you've just somehow gotten involved with a person with problems. But still they need to be held accountable. 3. I've no idea what time Eric got home last night. I think it was after midnight. The Blues Fest at the museum was a success. 4. I saw out friend Everett when I dropped off another...
