Diane, I’ve been thinking of you. I’m sorry you’re tired a lot. I hope the headaches haven’t been bad. Lots of love.

I saw this too and loved it! I’ve been missing you lately. I feel incredibly busy and tired a lot of the time.

Jan, I know, my new style of visiting all posts on one day is kind of overkill! I think it’s working okay so far, though, for me. It keeps me from whiling away too many hours on the Internet so I can focus on poetry and stuff.

Love to you!

Hey, I loved ALL your so many comments on my blog today. I always miss you and then suddenly you overwhelm me!

I hadn’t heard of Naomi Klein before, but am definitely impressed with her.

Thanks, you two!

(Jan, I admire Naomi Klein a lot—she tells the hard truth, doesn’t she?)

Thank you so much. I admire Rowling much. And Amnesty International is sadly always needed.

It’s mentioned some in the heartwrenching book I am currently reading–”The Shock Doctrine” by Naomi Klein. I can only manage a chapter a day.

What a lovely speech. I admire her so much (and I am off to check out the Amnesty links)!
