Pennies Everywhere: new directions
http://www.pennieseverywhere.com/2009/06/new-directions.html
June 3, 2009. It's funny how when you wish for something and the opportunity presents itself for that wish to be realized, suddenly the possibility is terrifying. I have been wanting change, hoping for it, imagining ways to make it happen. But the idea of change has always been something that would happen later, somewhere down the road. Not now. S running through my head. What if we can't sell our house? What if the weather is terrible? What if we can't make enough money? I have learned all too well that...

Pennies Everywhere: unstuck that rut
http://www.pennieseverywhere.com/2009/05/unstuck-that-rut.html
May 6, 2009. A few months ago I cracked open a fortune cookie after lunch and found this fortune inside. I had been feeling stifled for far too long by the inertia of my own life. I missed my friends, missed writing, missed adventure, missed feeling alive. I was so utterly bored and frustrated with the daily grind. And then I got this fortune. Giving me a little nudge. Yes, I believe so. I so often forget that I am the biggest barrier to my own happiness. And what is the answer in times of stuckness?

May 10, 2009. I inherited your curiosity, love of nature, and an eagerness to explore this world and its mysteries. We have enjoyed many adventures hiking and camping and taking long walks together, admiring the birds or the sunset or the way the light hit the leaves on a certain tree. Monica (your baby monkey). I love you mucho, mucho,. May 17, 2009. There are lots of things to see, unwrapped gifts and free surprises. The world is fairly studded and strewn with pennies cast broadside from a generous...

Pennies Everywhere: July 2007
http://www.pennieseverywhere.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
July 6, 2007. The way of the typewriter. Booboo the Prius and Lulu. I've finally given in. I've pulled my last stubborn and trailing limb into the 21st century with the rest of me. I bought a new car. And not just any new car, but a hybrid. And she's really cute. I feel that she accurately reflects my own identity: playful, adventurous, and outside-the-box. What were we thinking? In spite of my sentimentality, I'm very practical; it doesn't make sense to keep Lulu if I'm rarely going to drive her and I d...

Pennies Everywhere: April 2009
http://www.pennieseverywhere.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
April 29, 2009. The boy next door. The first thing I do when I walk into my office in the morning is raise the blinds and open the window to let in the fresh air and the sounds of the neighborhood: the birds and cars and the neighbors' wind chimes. Yesterday, as I was getting ready to leave work, I heard a little boy's laughter. I looked out my window and saw him standing on the trellis in his yard. I had never seen him or the neighbors before, only heard their dog bark on occasion. When they came back i...

Pennies Everywhere: November 2008
http://www.pennieseverywhere.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
November 5, 2008. Last night Michael said that he has not seen this kind fervor for a leader and his ideals since Bobby Kennedy in 1968. I have never had any faith in a political leader in my lifetime. Martin Luther King, Jr., JFK, Bobby Kennedy.they are all pages in a history I took no part in. What heros have there been for my generation? My heros have all been writers. Who will, I believe, do the same. He symbolizes balance and a return to rational discourse. He represents.
