It’s my 13th Leap Day. On my 11th, I shared this post, which was adapted from an earlier version that I wrote for The3Six5 writing project, on February 29, 2012 (my 10th Leap Day). I am including parts of those two posts (in some cases adapted) again today, as they are interesting to revisit. I […]

I wrote and shared another version of this post one year ago today. At some point since then, I found my notes from a session with an old therapist (who moved out of state a few years ago). I discovered that processing “missed potential,” and not “missed opportunity,” were the actual words she used to […]

Yeah, I still watch Grey’s Anatomy. I caught up on last Thursday’s episode this morning, watching via an app on my phone, while getting things done around the house.
