		<description><![CDATA[My daughter is moving. On the hottest day of the year. She has Ikea furniture. The kind that comes in a big flat box that weighs a thousand pounds, but you drag it in, follow the directions using the special little tool, and Hey, Presto! Suddenly there is a single size daybed that pulls out [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[And it&#8217;s time for a thousand small chores. Finally clean those rain gutters.  Put a cage around that rose bush, and stake those tomato plants!  And do the chores that are better done in summer, such as painting with the window open.
And of course, nothing ever goes quite smoothly.  Today I found that my hose [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We are cleaning up the soot and smoke, a room at a time, and getting very dirty in the process.  But at least I am back on my regular keyboard and my nice roomy, hand-friendly keyboard.
Time to de-clutter, too. Where did all this stuff come from?  Time to organize and refresh the house.  Anyone have [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In NYC my cellphone came back to life after a long period of unconsciousness in Italy. Two messages appeared right away, one from each daughter, asking me to call as soon as possible.
That is never a good sign.
It took me a short time to find a fairly quiet place in the airport.  And when I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Woke up this morning to a dome tent pitched in my living room.  This, of course, is because my teenager had to &#8216;make sure it still worked&#8217; before packing it up for Sasquatch, a music festival in the Gorge at George, Washington. The tent was full of sleeping bags (presumably to make sure they worked [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the perks of being a writer is that sometimes we get to read books before they are published. Not just our own books, which we have to read many, many times before they are published! I am talking about ARC&#8217;s or Advance Reading Copies. Robin Hobb gets several of these a month, and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My fellow Americans,
While driving home today from the grocery store, I deducedwhat is wrong with the American people.  It could be remedied with a new holiday.
Nap day.
We are all tired. And stressed. Everyone has a nasty little headache.  And none of us dare to take time out to nap.
President Obama, if you wish to see [...]]]></description>
