Easy Rapport
Not sure what the dictionary says, but I’d define “rapport” thus: “Ability and consensus between people to get along; having an affinity, one to the other helps this condition;.” My three kids and I got together with a good friend and her family the other day after work. My kids and theirs had never met. …
Fickle Head
Living with my fickle head, approaches the unreal, Longing for more sleep, then refusing slumber in the early hours, Filled with thoughts, rushing in, piled high, People, tasks, obligations forgotten, remembered, struggles, failures, piled high, In the small hours, darkness, in my fickle head.

Grounded
Funny thing, the value and importance these men provide me. Humbled and grateful. Mere friendship, but so exceedingly powerful. 35-50 years and running… Is that possible?! So blessed. Through two weddings and three kids and two divorces, they are my constant, SO grateful. Grounded.
