Watch out for Legos under bare feet - ouch! Kudos to you for keeping it going. We're the lucky ones who get to read the results. :) Thanks for letting us peak into your life.Jude Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13853306819660127498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-756429799959426939.post-80119408992986388672011-05-16T19:19:11.783-04:002011-05-16T19:19:11.783-04:00Whew!

I teach high school students all day, then write a huge chunk of the night to keep sane. No social life to speak of which I've come to grips with. Writing more than makes up for that. I hope to write characters and story lines that help others escape their lives as they help me. Happy writing!January Bainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13119921877074838876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-756429799959426939.post-34359011264293202012011-05-16T11:55:43.622-04:002011-05-16T11:55:43.622-04:00Love it, Linda.

I pretty much steal my writing time. <br /><br />I think I hit the save button about every three words whenever she's at the computer with me. The printer is within her reach and I let her turn it on and off--just don't tell my husband, espeically if she ends up breaking it. <br /><br />Thanks for stoppy by, everyone!<br /><br />Linda K.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-756429799959426939.post-59675268915266208422011-05-16T11:06:12.508-04:002011-05-16T11:06:12.508-04:00"Ain't parenting fun!"

One of our hospice volunteers, a former nun and grandmother, offered her granddaughter a visit to one of our rsidents/patients every week. The day the woman died, the 8-year-0ld insisted on seeing her. She went right up to her and said, "They tell me you went to be with God. Aren't you lucky."<br /><br />Keep on keepin' on, Linda.<br /><br />julieJulie Eberhart Painterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06491920614703104996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-756429799959426939.post-25057772105928903222011-05-16T09:09:39.130-04:002011-05-16T09:09:39.130-04:00Thanks for having me here, T!Thanks for having me here, T!Linda Kagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00259042112816376940noreply@blogger.com
