<p>When I'm not creating stories, which is never, I'm tootling in my empty nest. Suffice to say I'm always tootling and finding story seeds everywhere.</p><p>Life is great. It's better when you watch closely and see patterns repeat. Like turning back to fur babies when the kids have flown. Go #teamfurbaby!</p><p>It's all good. My husband of 33 years has finally come around. We've adopted a feral calico, Peanut, much to the horror of Boo, our inside Turkish Van. (She looks like one and tends toward snooty airs to overcome her poor farm beginnings :^)</p><p>Together, exploring fun foods, the joy of gardening, and what can be done with emptied rooms, we're getting there. Keeping it real. Exploring options. And choosing to be colorful whenever possible.</p><p>Or maybe that's wishful thinking--always a good thing!</p><p/>
