A child was born, Hang to dry, Beef pot pie


1. Daughter #2 turns twenty-five today. Born in Portsmouth, NH, we named her Chelsea, meaning "port of ships".  Steve and I lie in bed, talking quietly about earlier days and our daughters' beginnings. How can it be so long ago and yet, seem like only yesterday...




2. The wood stove burns all day in the basement making it warm and toasty for laundry duties.
3. Dinner is made of 'found' items from the fridge. He adds his 'found' item- a bottle of wine.
