Well Dear friends...sorry it's been so long since I've posted, but not only did I lose my Mom in late December, but my Dear Stepmom just passed away less than two weeks ago and I've been in a bit of a fog.
We have also been busy trying to save our house, raise our kids and launch our new book. Our new website just went live:Makelovewheneverpossible.com
Sometimes life really is intense. But I think I am exiting the fog. I find myself whistling again and enjoying the little things. Music. My kids. My husband. I still miss my Mom and now my Stepmom, but I've decided they are both standing right beside me as I continue my journey this lifetime as a wife, Mom, teacher, writer.
So..here goes..my April Oprah pick and finally a new post! So our new Oprah pick is, yes, another Memoir! " Falling Apart in One Piece" by Stacy Morrison. The Redbook editor in chief chronicles her own divorce and arrives at some wise conclusions.
Since the book I just wrote with my best friend chronicles our fight to stay married amidst the craziness of raising kids I think it will be good for me to read about what did not work and how this very accomplished career woman has handled all that.
Let's keep reading. Writing. Staying Creative--despite all obstacles!
take care all, Leslie

With deep respect and warm affection -
