Both Sides of the Fence
A Tosa resident since 1991, Christine walks the dog, raises kids, cooks but avoids housework, writes and reads, and works too much. A Quaker and
The Aging Maven, she has been known to stand on both sides of the political and philosophic fence at the same time, which is very uncomfortable when you think about it. She writes about pretty much whatever stops in to visit her busy mind at the moment. One reader described her as "incredibly opinionated but not judgmental." That sounds like a good thing to strive for!

I didn't know mosquitos could read the calendar. But apparently, they knew that if they didn't hatch en mass on September 1, the survival of their species would be endangered.
Boyhowdy, did they rise to the occasion!
Get out the bug spray that you haven't used all summer: you'll need it now.
And make sure you take the high road. Low places are murder.
