End of Chapter Four

April 22, 2005

Thanks so much to everyone who posted comments about my last drawing “Reinvent” and also my poem “Dear Sophia.” I really appreciate all the encouragement, and your comments have been comforting to me this week.

This is an entry I really don’t want to make, but I feel I should for continuity’s sake. On Tuesday I had a miscarriage. I’m doing pretty well, much better actually than the other three times. My ultrasounds showed that the pregnancy never made it beyond five weeks, and all my blood tests showed my hormone levels were dropping, so rather than go to the hospital for a D&C, I choose to take medicine that would help me have a miscarriage at home. It took about a week for it to work, but now I’m just glad it’s over. On a scale of one to ten with ten being the worst, I think I’m at about a three, so it seems like this was the right thing to do.

The nice thing about my Mac laptop is that I can lay on the sofa and hold it sideways to read blogs and surf the internet. But even though it’s almost a wireless world, it’s not really when it comes to power supplies. I’m still at the mercy of my extension cord.

I already have an idea for the new Illustration Friday topic “Daring.” I think this one would make a good quilt. I also have to make my postcards for Myra’s swap, so hopefully I can get back to the studio soon.
