   I am a new fan, and was once a teacher. Have a fun last day of school with your class. It was always a rather bittersweet day for me. I never like to say good bye.

   Woo hoo to the end of school! It deserves a little dance of pleasure.

   Peonies: my favorite flower. Recently, anyway.

   Workshop: I get it. I’ve got Carolyn Forche on my summer agenda, which makes me nervous (frightened!). In relation to yours, I’ve started one of PM’s books this summer with another waiting in the pile, upon *your* recommendation.

   I think, with summer, you will be reawakened. Like me, comme ca. Like this.

   I love your posts, no matter how rare ~ besides, they’re not that rare at all!

   Summer is there ..

   I am glad you’ll be around more! I have you on Bloglines, so it always updates me when there is something new to read. So I won’t stop coming by!

   I love your posts and look forward to the dozens of them in your head coming to “paper” soon

   Happy Summer! I have always adored Pam Houston – your trip will be great : ) How did you hear about it? I check her web site now and again, and haven’t seen workshop listings…

   Anyway, again – Happy Summer!

   I’ve noticed you posting less, but I am still just as happy when I see you have a new post up!

   Summer? Well, it was 4 degrees C here this morning – we’re into winter. Have a nice holiday. I love the photos and I MUST get myself a camera. I haven’t had one for years and there’s so many wonderful shapes and textures out there to record.

    I don’t leave you a reply very often (maybe just once or twice) but I’ve been reading your blog for sometime now and I feel compelled to share. I have had a really terrible day – nothing unfixable, nothing tragic – just a day that leaves me questioning myself to the very core of my being and wondering if I’ll be able to come up for air and return in stride with a new found love for myself. And so, here I am sharing with you because I’ve been reading and have had the great pleasure to read what you have so eloquently been willing to share. I feel compelled to share how greatful I am for your words – you help remind me what is important to me and that helps remind me who I am. It is also such a reassuring pleasure to know that you do struggle and have and are willing to share and still create and share and spread such beauty in the midst of your own struggles. It is so inspiring and I needed to tell you thank you! Thank you, Thank you.

    Hip hip hooray – the last day of school! I’m looking forward to all you’ll share with us this summer, all the adventures on your plate. And I really need to read some Pam Houston, don’t I?

    I always want to stop by, even if you’re away. I’m awfully hard to get rid of!

    I love the way you have described your anticipation of summer and the beauty in the ordinary aspects of having dinner with your son. You always inspire me to find the beauty in the ordinary and ultimately appreciate what life has to offer, even in the smallest moments.
