Sometimes From a Distance. . . .
Sometimes From a Distance. . . I recently told my readers that I would post the fisherman’s hat which I knit with thick and burly yarn. Aging plays havoc with arthritic fingers and new ways have to be found to do the things I once found great pleasure in doing. Or told myself that…

The Great Ahhhhman. . . . .

This Old House. . . consider this. . .
This Old House. . . . I am like this old house. I have windows that are broken or have shifted in the space designed for them. I have appendages that were once new rooms added on to make space for new dreams or for widening the premises for old forms expanding. There were…
