Late today, I had to remember who I was. When one visits one’s parents, I think you automatically become who they knew you to be. But, it might not be who you are. For 21 years, my parents and I have lived in states separated by almost one thousand miles. During that time, I’ve had…

Today, I was going to write about crafting. The topic was inspired by my own increase in crafting this year – fabric face mask, a quilt, more jewelry (which I’ve done since 2008), and of course, crafting with words – poems, essays, prose, etc. My husband has also increased his crafting, making custom furniture and…
Today is Silent Sunday. For three and a half years, on Sunday, I’ve offered a silent post of just my own photographs. No words, although sometimes a caption. You can search my other Silent Sunday posts by just using those terms. All photographs are copyrighted by me, Carol Labuzzetta, whether watermarked or not. There is…
