School’s out for summer! Woo-hoo!…um, for Monica, at least.
So, for the next week, she’ll be working on her own writing projects, enjoying the 50-degree, overcast, so-called-summer drizzle and, I’m sure, organizing social events for the whole city of Seattle. Over the weekend of June 21st and 22nd, she’ll attend a conference for women who have recently experienced stillbirth or the loss of a young infant. I’m glad it’s for women only, because I don’t feel like immersing myself in thoughts of what could have been. Although she’s handled the past 2 years’ losses amazingly, I think it’ll be a cathartic experience, and I’m happy that she’s doing it. The other women in attendance will be lucky for her perspective.
I have another week before being released from prison until mid-September. While Monica is at her conference, I hope to be driving to Bend with the dog for some roadside camping and as much mountain biking as Tebow can handle. (Yes, I do feel like a schmuck burning a tank of gas in order to ride by bike.) My plan is to bring the mini-laptop and relay my experiences and musings here, juvenile as they will probably be.
