We arrived home today from a visit to Miss Rumphius's cottage to find 2 dead mice on the living room floor!! A "gift" from Heidi the cat, who had the freedom of the house and yard while the dog was sequestered. Worse still, before I could pick up the 2 mice the dog ate one of them!
Mother of three thoughtful, interesting, funny, grown-up kids, most in the vicinity for at least much of the year (I'm so blessed); grandmother of FOUR, count'em, FOUR amazing baby girls; ABSOLUTELY, finally, fully "retired"; ordained for the last 20+years; "late vocation" after first life as a university instructor in English; Anglican by virtue of English metaphysical poetry and the Book of Common Prayer (and by the grace of God); genetically Calvinist; INFP in the extreme.
