Come on in...the water's fine!

Come on over to join me at rationalistsinsombreros.blogspot.com!

I logged in to post today and when I saw the home page, I said, "Wow, that's a pretty page!", before remembering that it was mine. Far better than the alternative, I guess.

Stay warm, all.

Moving in cyberspace

My husband says I make decisions for unusual reasons. For example, I buy cars based on color and naming potential (my current Subaru is named Roz)

Now, I am moving to a new blog space, because I can use a more interesting (and, I hope, more memorable) name. Please come join me at rationalistsinsombreros.blogspot.com.

I'll be checking in here for a while longer.

He's not heavy; he's my friend



A great story of a win-win-win situation. A little boy named Sam, who has cerebral palsy, lives with his family in a two-story house. His father used to carry him upstairs to bed every night, until his dad had heart surgery. The family reached out to a local high school for help, and a co-captain of the team, Rudy Favard, comes to Sam's house several nights a week to carry him upstairs.

Sam and his family have help, Rudy has the appreciation and affection of Sam's family, and both young men have a new friend. Priceless.
