In some ways I feel as if I am abandoning my post (HA!  I made a pun!)  by diverting my attention into the writing of this book.  I am working hard on it — making progress — so far I am nearing the age of my 6th birthday — and what an old-soul child I was by that age.

I have a long way to go, and a lot of work to do, but with my loved one’s help I am ‘coloring within the lines’ so to speak, which means I am writing within the box, the parameters of the questions my daughter is sending me to respond to with my written answers — the best that I can.

We had our first heavy monsoon rain down here in southeastern Arizona yesterday, but I was disappointed to see that my plants showed signs of stress already today wanting more water!  Oh, I hope more good rains come.  We haven’t had rain for 9 months, and that’s a LONG time – an unusually long time!

So, time to relax for the rest of the evening — back to book writing work tomorrow!!!!
