This section will be written someplace where kids can't read it.

Living with Mom

OK this is really really raw first draft writing. If I were you I'd skip it for a few months until I get it in some conherent form.

Second draft of stories

Well, I've gone through the "Stories" stories a second time. Now I'll down load them into a Word file into one long piece and then maybe rearrange sections. I also have to add my own pictures instead of what I find on Google. Then I'll be going through the "hippy dayz" first drafts. Another project I'll be starting is to interview my friend Jim R. on tape and transcribe that. He has had an interesting life. I want to ask him about being a conscientious objector during the Korean War. (nothing like jumping into the middle) His wife suggests I ask him about growing up in the country.

Now things get hazy and it's hard to put things in order. Still, this is not history, it is "what it was like" not "what it was". My rambling is not fact-finding. When I have dementia and repeat things, will you say "you said that already"? This is not an essay test. .... moved ....

I took a day off

I've been holed up writing and little else. Probably mourning Stuart's illness and death. But today was a day to get out, and I did. Back to writing tomorrow morning.
