Scoot over, Debs! Make some room for me on your hammock!! Senses alive with this one...I really liked the playful interaction between your face and the sky with a clever scripted title too! Now where did u say this hammock was hanging?.............................

Hey hon, I love this, especially the word batten... heft to it, longevity, purpose. Batten is meant to last, as lovely and fragile as it might seem. Oh, waxing on. I'm wiped off to bed. Last night was awful. Today was ideal &d I am working on self soothing. She seemed happier tonight, going to sleep. I must get to bed, just in case. I had 4 hours sleep last night. I'm crumbling. Now, heads up re Soup newsletter. READ Asante Indira and Kelly Greer. Free Versers so good they should teach it.xoxDEE
