Stroke My Anima

A miserable wintry day has just been made bright by my belated discovery of having been included in Shelley’s great post, “Best Blog With a Female Spirit.”

Shelley accords me the honor for being one of the male bloggers who exemplifies the “figurative grandmother, the wise woman who sits in the corner spinning yarn and tales equally, and in the process helping to continue traditions without which our lives would be so much duller. “

I never would have thought of that description in a million years, but Shelley’s descriptive powers are among the best to be found, so I’ll accept it, gladly and proudly. Thank you, Bird, I’m humbled!
