A Quick Post on the Daily Prompt
The Daily Post’s Daily Prompt today is “Smell You Later.” You can see the post here. The prompt is: Humans have very strong scent memory. Tell us about a smell that transports you.

My Woobie, My Love
My mother introduced me to her over ten years ago. At first, I thought she was too long. Too green. Too boxy. The sleeves hung off like big, floppy . . . sleeves.

Love . . . Exciting and New
Hi Everyone! A week or so ago I was over visiting jhubner73 where his post reviewing Daft Punk’s new album mentioned The Love Boat theme song. A comment thread about seventies television shows resulted (crazy comment threads like that happen all the time over there at J.Hub’s blog), and again The Love Boat was cited as “crappy 70’s Continue reading

The Weekend Getaway
HI EVERYONE! I’m back! Home from my weekend getaway with my husband. We had a great time so I thought I’d share some highlights for tonight’s post. Where did we go?

M. the Ripper
As I’ve mentioned previously, my son M. has autism. I’m in Holland instead of Italy, and life is definitely interesting here. One of M.’s challenges with living in our world concerns his sensory processing. Here’s my parental, non-medically trained, limited knowledge on the subject: With typical people, when we invoke our senses by seeing, hearing, Continue reading

Back into the Groove . . .
Tonight I attempt to get back into the blogging groove with a short, simple post. Thanks for coming back. I’m immersed again in my yoga book: The Heart of Yoga: Developing a Personal Practice, by T.K.V. Desikachar, and wanted to share.
