Hello (anyone who reads)- I felt called to update my journal and let everyone know what's going on with us in the Ozarks. We had Cora Jane Edwards on March 21, 2006 (Aries/Sagittarius/Leo) on the first day of Spring with a midwife, completely natural. It snowed the day we brought her home.

I hate to be one of those stereotypical graduate students who goes around pondering the meaning of life and "what is art?"; but, it has really been bothering me since this weekend. I mean, the meaning of life is not hard, but the "what is art?" question is. There was a 24 Hour Play Festival this weekend as part of the Fayetteville Arts Festival ( Read more... )
