WHAT IS IT about the human condition that we can never treasure the age we’re in? This problem is not just confined to rapidly sagging, middle-aged people (like me). It strikes our progeny, too, though sometimes in unexpected ways. [click to continue…]

I CAN’T SAY I wasn’t warned. Sheilaa Hite, our lovely in-house (in-blog?) astrologer-extraordinaire, told us all to be careful. [click to continue…]

I SWORE UP, DOWN and all around, that I would never raise another puppy. Puppies, I said glibly to friends considering getting their own, are like children, without benefit of diapers. What I should have said, instead: Be careful of the stone certainties, the pronouncements, the “I’ll nevers”–they’ll bite you in the ass, every time. [click to continue…]

THEY WANT TO BE IN PICTURES: From my Country Living story.
First time here? Here's the idea: The Sister Project is a network of blogs about the many facets of the word sister, and the concept of sisterhood. A sisterhood of sister blogs, you could say. Whatever sister means to you, from identical twin to sister-in-law (or in friendship or in feminism), we’ll make room to listen in about it or express it on TSP. Like the slogan up top on our homepage says, “Don’t you have something to say to your sister?” We've got galleries of art and literature by and about sisters, and a Sisterpedia of sisterly trivia...but now we're getting ahead of ourselves. The quick study: Learn more about TSP, and how to find your way around. And oh—a giant, sisterly welcome.
