I got sucked up into the husband is on vacation yet I am still working my ass off syndrome… HAHAHA! When you are staying home with your kids, there are no vacations. Alright, alright… I’m exaggerating a bit, I suppose. I did actually leave the house by myself this morning for an hour and a [...]

Christmas 2008
Posted in baltimore, tagged christmas 2008 on December 24, 2008 | 2 Comments »
I must say that after at least twenty years of hating with the venom of a large poisonous spider, Christmas, and everything having to do with it, I might be done. Done with the hate. You know why? Because it is no longer my job to hate a day of the year. Apparently it was [...]
Thank you

Again, one of my daughters has a cold. Nothing serious, just seriously exhausting for all of us. One is sick, then it is possible for the other one to get sick easily, and when the sick one is coughing and sneezing into my eyes and on my hands, no amount of hand washing will keep [...]

In fact, she probably does it faster than Beenie. Certainly more recklessly. Mimi has been talking about pee-peeing in her potty since [...]

That’s right, folks. The first (and only, so far) printed version of Camera Morte: Neighborhood Apocalypse, © J. Goodwin 2008, arrived this afternoon at my doorstep. I am very excited, as you can well imagine, for a variety of reasons:
I completed a task. I started the project, completed the project, then uploaded it to the [...]
Camera Morte on the Presses

I have actually completed an artistic goal. Mind blowing, I know. Last night I shipped off my first attempt at publishing a book via BlurbTM, of Camera Morte photos. That’s right. After the girls go to bed at night and hubbo watches endless hours of talking heads repeating the same news day after day, I [...]
