Hang In There

I estimated that it's probably been two weeks since this man either tweezed or shaved his ears, considering that on the average--hair grows about 1/2 an inch every month.

Straight From the Hip

I made my daughters these frilly little dresses for Easter one year. The fabric was difficult to work with, but I lined every edge with lace and ribbon. It was the most beautiful day when I dressed them up and took their picture. Afterwards, I hiked one daughter on one hip and one daughter on the other and stared into the mirror. I never wanted to forget what it looked like to be holding both of them together.

Please Help

Sometimes I see things that depress me. In this particular situation I had my camera in the car and was sitting at a stoplight. I didn't help this man, wouldn't have had the time or opportunity to hold up traffic if I had wanted to. But I have often wondered if the woman in the distance did anything for him.

Homeless Spider

This spider weaved his home outside my bathroom window. Every morning after he'd just completed his web in hopes to catch a tasty breakfast, I'd open up the window and collapse his creation. This went on for a couple of weeks before he finally surrended and moved on.

Fuzzy Wuzzy

I was counting on my hubby to take some awesome pictures of my daughter and her boyfriend for the big prom night. Every photograph he took looks just like this.

Poop in My Path

A fresh deposit of bear scat on a morning walk. I took this picture in case I turned up missing.

Anything for Attention

A truth about my husband: He will fake having splinters in the bottom of his foot and ask the kids to try to find them and pick them out.

Missing My Love

My middle daughter stopped making me homemade birthday cards.

Missing Lady Mae

Lady Mae went missing over a year ago. Sometimes I think I still see her sitting on the same chair in my writing room, soaking up the warm sunshine beaming through the window.

Sore Spots

Last September I woke up with Shingles covering the left side of my face. They came as a result of immense stress. I had an experience of being locked inside of a Taco Time bathroom in Ketchikan Alaska. According to doctors, the whole ordeal triggered a viral response that ended up erupting in lesions. Nothing's worse that being sick away from home.

Just Come Home

A tough one: Finding my daughter in Central Park in the middle of NYC. She's finding herself and making all her dreams come true. A mother's true nightmare.

My Daughter's Piggy

A strange growth or skin fungus totally ruined my daughter's pedicure.
