I wrote a post on 28 October 2012 that I didn’t publish at that time. I reviewed it today and it is “good enough.” You can find it here: Science and Experience

Grief and Loss Magnified (musings on disasters)
A landslide in Oso (this weekend, 8 confirmed dead, dozens more missing), an airliner missing and presumed down with all lives lost after two weeks, car- and suicide-bombers, slaughter of civilians and “enemy” prisoners… If I had all the money in the world, I could not fix the disasters that thousands of people are facing, […]
Today in the Garden
Although I have a cold, I went home briefly after school. Here is what greeted me:

Wordless, progress!
Well, a small explanation perhaps: the white cabinets go on the island under the pendant lights. The very dark cabinet is one of the bathroom vanities. We are getting a 30-inch stove, there are two 9-inch cabinets on either side in case someday we can afford to and want to upgrade to a wider stove. […]
Progress…
LOTS of progress on some days. 🙂
