Sunday, November 09, 2014. Today, as I was cleaning, preparing for my friend Carole's visit, I came across Mark's clothes. He had brought them over hastily, late for the train that would take him west, far away from here and from us. I found them in the room his sister once had, now a guest room. I was doing a load of darker clothes, so I pulled the non-whites out, one by one, then in groups. Some of them carried memories, others not. Now, my link to him is my phone, where I receive occasional texts and ...

SwanSmith: More drama with Christina
http://swansmith.blogspot.com/2010/03/more-drama-with-christina.html
Saturday, March 20, 2010. More drama with Christina. The surgery went well- Tim ran home to get our laptops so we could update our Facebook statuses and not go out of our minds during surgery. The hospital is awesome. It's small- only 300 beds, I think, and it was eerily quiet for a Friday night, but it's only been open a couple months. We could actually park in a lot not far from the door. So, now all my kids have had surgery! Oh, in other news, I received my post secondary teaching certificate! Thanks ...

SwanSmith: A fun week
http://swansmith.blogspot.com/2009/11/fun-week.html
Sunday, November 22, 2009. Well, last week we enjoyed the company of my sister Cheri and her grandson Josh. Jon and Kristi, Cheri's son and daughter-in-law, reluctantly left Josh at my house while they traveled to San Diego for a conference. Since finishing my teaching of ILA (except for posting final grades- getting close to that! Now we are getting ready for Thanksgiving. Tim's parents and my nephew Daniel (Cheri's youngest- a student here in the Twin Cities) are coming, as well as the three kids&#...

SwanSmith: Back home after a Tennessee Christmas
http://swansmith.blogspot.com/2009/12/back-home-after-tennessee-christmas.html
Monday, December 28, 2009. Back home after a Tennessee Christmas. There's no place like home. Even though our time in Tennessee this Christmas was wonderful, it is so, so good to be home. We were very excited to have our former exchange student from Bolivia, Carla, join us for the holidays this year. She arrived on December 12, and is staying till January. She is delightful. We did some more site-seeing in the beautiful Smokie Mountains, and even did some hiking up past some beautiful falls. My Aunt ...

Saturday, August 30, 2003. We finally settled on Tejas- and wow, what a good choice! If you're ever in Mpls., try the Tejas restaurant at 50th and France area in Edina.

SwanSmith: Fall's in full swing
http://swansmith.blogspot.com/2009/10/falls-in-full-swing.html
Saturday, October 24, 2009. Fall's in full swing. Raven thinks the cold is great, and loved the snow and colder weather. After he got his collar off mid-August, he started suffering from end-of-summer allergies and pollens. Now he's stopped scratching and gone back to being a regular dog. Cheri will be visiting in a couple of weeks with her sweet grand-baby- watching Joshy while Jon and Kristi take a trip to California. That should be fun! So, we're keeping out of trouble so far! Till next time,. Well, i...
