Thoughts on Excavations

They tell you that you'll reap what you sow, but they don't tell you how much it will hurt. Sore knees, tired eyes, empty bank account, frustrated clients, lonely pen... this reckoning is harder than I thought it would be.

I'm trying to start a fire with damp wood. I want so much; my biological clock was nothing compared to this incessant ticking.

Hi Sallie,

Thank you for your kind words. I don't remember if, in my comment on the seething mom blog, I mentioned I was born and raised in Minneapolis.

I have many friends in MN (and family, of course) who keep me posted on the developments there. I have to say, when I heard about the vote, my heart broke a little. (Okay, a lot.)

Thanks for being one of the roughly 17 people who read my blog!
