This is just to say
Okay, couldn't resist that. I love that poem, love Matthew MacFadyen for that matter.
. . .
So (with apologies to William Carlos Williams):
This is just to say
I am not gone or sad or done or quit.
I have posted the words
(which were in my mind, last week)
Forgive me.
They were reruns
And might be familiar.
...
This is also just to say
Sam got his braces off
Louie got a regrettable haircut along with a cut paw
& is going on 5 trips to the vet
& wearing a cone of shame and plastic boot to go out
(poor puppy)
The sun is out
the rains and floods are lifting (10 inches of rain!).
Laundry is done and folded on the window seat.
Revisions on my QP are underway
I'm prepping for a guest lecture this week
at BU School of Public Health
Maddy was just in her school's drama night
Tonight Sam has a chorus concert
Tonight there are artichokes and new potatoes and peas
and rice pilaf for dinner
The clocks have sprung forward
Spring, you are welcome anytime.

How I'd love to sneak in the back of that lecture hall! I bet you are fabulous.
Sam's already done with braces? Dang, that was quick. Lucky guy. We're getting Chase's on next week (and big brother McKay's in six months, as he still has some baby teeth they're waiting on).
P.S. I like your reruns. They're always fantastic.
LOVE him.
I just had my girl and her bff come in and I asked them who this was. They said, "Mr. Darcy!" Ah, that just made my day.
Loved this, Annie. I reminds me of a round of take-offs on this WCW poem a few years ago. You know my brother Dave - he can do wonders with a simple piece written by someone else. I will try to find the emails and make sure you have them. Maybe you already do. I love your version with all the newsy and image-rich descriptions. Thanks thanks thanks. Love, Ma
You really impress me.
