This and That

(We replaced Rhys’ tree this week, and I think he approves.)

This week we all went back to our routines after Spring Break, and I can’t believe Easter is right around the corner!  My very own, first-ever blogger/creative meetup is next week, and I can’t wait to tell you all about it.  Until then, here are a few things that caught my eye this week.

“Yesterday I lost a country.” A moving interview with Dunya Mikhail, an Iraqi poet living in exile.

Dads make career sacrifices, too.  A journalist’s personal story about juggling work and family.

I don’t know much about video games, but this piece about a gamer who died of cancer is pretty amazing.

And this most definitely falls into the realm of celebrity gossip, but oh well.  It seems two “Mad Men” characters who shared an on-screen dalliance are getting hitched in real life!

This weekend, we’re replacing the boys’ worn-out shoes and possibly attending an art show.  I hope you have a wonderful weekend, too!
