    Dear PI Parents,

    Kudos to you for choosing to send your child to a school you believe is better than their home school. But part of what makes our school great is parent involvement. Not a single one of you came to Back to School Night last night. Thus keeping my percentage of PI parents who attend BTSN zero. It's a disturbing trend. Just sending your child to a better school is no guarantee they will be a better student.

    I hope you attend your conferences.

    Dear school,

    After reading what people are saying about your instructors in literature and Women studies, I'm feeling really fired up and positively eager to enroll and start the class. It's been a long time since I've felt this way about literature. It's awesome.

    (Also, I love online college classes. It's so awesome to finally be able to succeed in school even if people think I'm a bit old to still be piddling around undergrad classes.)

    Unhappy

    Dear friends:

    You should reconsider where you've stretched your clothesline at the new house. I am at least the third person to walk into the 2x4 holding an end of the clothesline.

    Your friend with the black "third eye".

    to whom it may concern

    i can't post here much but i think about it doing it a lot.

    I am adjusting to my new life. I am not riding enough, without you know who badgering me to go for a ride; but I am riding once or twice a week.

    I am not going for enough walks either, it is hard to go out the door past my driveway. (I have no trouble going places, it's going for a walk by myself that is hard.)

    I am eating well, bathing, and sleeping. I am taking good care of my cats. I have fixed up one room completely, and a second is nearly done. I do not want for activity. I even have been painting; but i am kind of flighty.

    I guess if anyone in the Seattle area wants to go for a ride with someone who is pokey, let me know. I will be around for 2 more weeks before I go to Italy.

    This is not a plea for hugs and sympathy, I just thought it was fair to let people know what it is looking like here for me 6 weeks after the loss of my husband.

    You're doing OK Mimi, you can't expect to feel "normal" right now, you're going through a huge adjustment. I'm glad to hear you're taking care of yourself, we like having you around.

    How long will you be in Italy?

    I will be gone for a little more than 2 weeks. Hope to find some riding buddies; I can't ride with my old friends yet, they are too fast for me at present.
