WELCOME TO MY PRECARIOUSLY BALANCED UNIVERSE…
...in which I ask important questions like "If I'm the centre of the universe, why don't I get my way more often?" and "What if the laws of the universe are merely suggestions?" and of course the key questions, "Have you subscribed? How will I know you like me if you don't?"Join my universe

To commemorate the death of a dear friend gone much too soon, I am signing people up to be Red Pen Rebels — a term she coined accidentally in one of her notes to me. Read the whole note and sign yourself up. Continue reading
Late week update
I know, what’s with the dearth of postings? Christmas holidays are over Tentative Equinox North. And I hate reading posts that start off with “Sorry I haven’t posted much lately.” But there you go. I also thought I would never say … Continue reading
