Moving again

Thursday, July 1st, 2010

I’m finally getting into long-term housing.  For a limited time only, I’m posting my new address online

Offer’s expired.  Call me or gmail me as marykennon if you need my address.

New comments policy

Saturday, June 26th, 2010

I’ve been having spam problems lately, so I’ve changed the comments policy to “administrator approval required.”  You can still post comments, but it’ll take a day or two now for them to show up.  Sorry for that.  Blame organized crime in Eastern Europe and sub-Sarahan Africa.

Pictures, words

It’s been a busy month - my sister is now a wedded woman, I went to the beach for the first time in years, and I’m getting ready to move (not far this time - just a few blocks down into permanent housing).  And there’ve been photos of almost all of this.  I just don’t have any. Katie? Little help?

So exciting news on all fronts, but I literally don’t have much to show for it yet.

Contagious

Stars, I have seen them fall,
But when they drop and die
No star is lost at all
From all the star-sown sky.
The toil of all that be
Helps not the primal fault;
It rains into the sea
And still the sea is salt.

A.E. Housman, “Stars” from More Poems,  1936.

No, I’m not depressed or anything. I’ve just had this stuck in my head. And now it’s stuck in yours. You’re welcome.

Just sayin’

Tip of the iceberg

The last of last week’s snow has melted off now, and I’m settling in.

Cool digs, huh?

Magic likes it here!

Also, hidden light switches for cool haunted house effects:

New directions

Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

As of this week, I’ve moved to Caruthersville, MO, where I’ll be working in the Law Offices of Wendell L Hoskins as an associate.

I’ll be working a gamut of cases, civil and criminal, and pursuing a Missouri law license.

My cell phone number has not changed. My mailing address will, but not until I’m in a longer-term housing situation. Pictures and fun to come, let’s stay connected!

Meanwhile, if you need to send me something, try my office address:

PO Box 1115
404 Ward Ave
Caruthersville, MO 63830

Merry Christmas cactus!

And a break from all that red and green . . .

Snow Day!

Saturday, December 5th, 2009

Or not - it’s Saturday and the roads are clear, so there’s nothing cancelled, but this is the closest I’ve gotten in years, so I’ll just go ahead and celebrate if you don’t mind.

Happy Thanksgiving

Peace, plenty, and a solitaire-playing gadget to all!

Thanksgiving recovery

After a long day of near-continuous eating and talking, there’s nothing quite so refreshing as sinking into an evening gadget-coma.
