We've had 5 days of family, followed by 5 out of 6 days of friends to visit or visiting, I am writing the first of 3 preschool applications (this one due Friday... crazy, I know, but I live in San Francisco), my column is due tomorrow and my computer died.

Hopefully I will be back next week. I am thinking long and hard about resolutions. I love them, the optimism and opportunity, the possibility to be a new and better me and projects! planning! So there is plenty to say, if I can just find the way.
