Reincarnation Check

In the aftermath of his big fat Indian wedding (which occurred in September) I am trying hard to be a new person. The new layers of me include: 3 writers' residencies, 2 published personal essays, 57, 000 words of a new memoir manuscript, 2 short stories, progress 1/2 way through an MFA program, & 2 blogs. So I hope that means I am shedding the skin of attorney's wife and becoming a writer.
I also hope to become an increasingly better daughter, mother, mother-in-law, grandmother, & friend & colleague.
New projects for becoming: mother-in-law for a second time, more socially/politically involved citizen. Incredibly thin and attractive 57-year-old hottie.  Comedian.

  1. You certainly have the Mother-in-law and Grandmother thing down. I don't think it could get any better!

It's a weird way to have a conversation. But go ahead. Then I'll find your blog (if you have one) and comment about something there. We probably won't be talking about the same thing--but I've had conversations like that, haven't you?
