I have received three pieces of bad news since the early hours of the morning, one of which involves a death in the family. I have spent the majority of the morning crying or cleaning (my brand of therapy)…luckily, Claire has been in a good mood and has allowed me to leave her alone for […]

Hurricane Irene
A snippet of the conversation I had with my mother yesterday — Me: The governor has declared a state of emergency and we’re in a potential flood zone.
