Posted on November 24, 2010 By Sister Rain

I’ve been doing some day-before-Thanksgiving cooking today and just sat down to do some computer chores. I am tired and smell like fried bread (from the filling or stuffing depending where you are from). My friend and I were saying today that mentally we both feel like it’s still summer…

Do You Think It’s Infected?

Posted on November 22, 2010 By Sister Rain

Isn’t it funny how the the things that drive us most crazy about others are the things we often don’t recognize in ourselves? I follow several blogs and it makes me crazier than I already am that they don’t update the blogs daily. And here I am, not having updated…

Is That A Tissue In Your Pocket Or Are You Just Happy To See Me?

Posted on November 17, 2010 By Sister Rain
