You didn't disappoint me! This book might not be for you, and I'm okay with that. XO
The Book
(This isn't the final book wrap, but it's the only file I have to share. It's 95% of the actual.) I shared the Amazon link (pre-order the paperback, and Kindle format coming soon!) on Facebook and have tweeted news about my book...once. It feels funny to self-promote. In the same breath, I'm p...

BlogHer 11 was so awesome because I met YOUR WIFE. Neil and I were talking about how cool, funny and smart she is on Sunday...morning after. But, you must be something special, too, because a gal that cool wouldn't hang with just any schmo. And, thanks. Say hi to your wife. I luv her.

Several of you already know. I wrote a little book. I don't talk about it much in larger circles because 1) there are many people who have written books. Seems to be another new black; 2) there are many people who have written very good books who haven't been published, but should be; and 3...
Thanks, Cheri. I still have a bazillion little tasks to accomplish, but I'm dividing and conquering. *In love* with you. xo

Thank you, Claire. I had a feeling you would understand. Let's get your book out there. I know you have one. Love, Chris

Thanks, Mary. Seems I read somewhere that you are collaborating on a project that will be published soon. Wonderful! (I could use a cig. xxoo)

It's written for an LDS audience, but I think there are nonmembers who will enjoy the book, too. I'm looking forward to simply seeing you. It's been too long... jeesh.

I love that your mom grins! Redmond has the same problem as your mother... xo
Because They're Elderly
My mom and dad aren't really elderly. They're not 70, but almost. Like knocking on the door. But "elderly" is a relative term. The past few years, visits to my parents' home in Arizona have provided several family take-away stories. There was the time I backed into their house... with Mom's ...

I imagine we could talk for hours about some of these topics, Pam. The "hard things" sometimes make me feistier, too, but I prefer them to make me more graceful. I admire YOU -- as a matter of fact, I almost included your one rule for Parke's and Duke's 3rd grade class... Be kind. That's dogma I can do. xoxo
On Turning 45
Sunday, June 5, 2011, was a beautiful day in our microcosm. Blue skies, 70 degrees, no wind, smells of summer, and sounds of my sons and husband having an afternoon water fight in our backyard. I was born on a Sunday in 1966. For some reason when my birthday falls on the actual day of the wee...

Thank you, Mary. I don't want to forget. xx
Following Her Lead
"I don't have much time. I'm dying." Her eyes were focused on mine, willing me to accept along with her the words she spoke. I'd quasi-prepared in my mind to talk about death prior to my trip, but I felt numb -- almost tingly. She was dying. In the moment, devastation about Em's impending dep...
Me too, sister. I tried to call her cell phone the other morning just to hear her voice. No dice. Had been disconnected. xo

I don't know that my post was "beautiful" or even a proper tribute, but there are too many personal details to include. I don't have Em here to ask her permission. As she said, "Sucks." Love you, Cheri. xo

She's a loss to many, Judy. Her memorial service was last weekend [4/30] and attended by hundreds. Thank you. I miss YOU. xo

She DID do it with dignity and grace, Mulva. Thank you for saying so. Love, Chrisy

XO to you, too. Thinking of your sister... Owe you a proper email.
Mom "Likes" Facebook
There are already too many jokes about our parents -- the senior set in general -- adapting to social media. Just when some older people are comfortable consistently using email, we say... "Never mind. Start a blog. Tweet. Get on Facebook. It's fun!" My mother took the Facebook plunge. Dad'...

I called Mom and told her we WILL practice on your page when she's here. I think it's funny that you've blocked your parents from your stuff. I told Mom about your comment and she said, "For god sakes, you don't need to block me. I know everything." And she kinda does. Sucks. Look for Kaye and Chrisy VERY soon. xo
