Thoughts about my Husband, Fear of Commitment, Isolation, and Meditation

In isolation we face all that is inside of us. That’s the difficult part. Yes, it requires self-discipline to cook and clean and manage children constantly. Yes, it requires flexibility to work from home and suddenly break off physical contact with friends and family. Yes, it requires skill to avoid fighting with the family members we are shut in ...

She’s Still Cookin’

Well. Here we are. No baby yet. But, early signs of labor have appeared. Everyone thought she'd have arrived by now, but hey - babies are surprises! Truth be told I'm relieved she hasn't appeared yet, even though I'm dying to meet her. She's 38+6 today and it would be wonderful for her well-being to make it to 39 weeks or longer. ...
