some cards i designed for this weekly gathering i was planning to have while living in maui. i never had them...those weekly sometimes bi-weekly dinners we had was enough socializing. maybe i”ll have them now since there’s really nothing going on here. if you’re reading this and live on the Big Island let me know if you are interested.

my book reviews this is a book by my dear friend Brett Brady. He’s an amazing poet! what can say... just get the damn book!! available on Amazon.com. read the review below. And dont get it just because my husband’s art work is on the cover. or because the picture of Brett that’s on the back cover is by me. hehehe

4 of 4 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars Breath of Fresh Air, January 5, 2008 By Marcia Twain - See all my reviews Brett Brady’s wind in the pages: haiku lends the reader an oft-overdue moment of repose. Each haiku is a breath--an unconscious moment that, once considered, illuminates the simultaneous significance and futility of thought--of the act of thinking. Indeed, each page transports us beyond this plateau, as the visceral experience reminds us of what lies beneath and beyond the self-importance we construe through our memory of names and feelings and words; it is not just “poetry,” but a lens through which we can recognize (without cognizing if we are so lucky)--and perhaps even become--understanding. It is a rare book that one can leaf through randomly or sit down and soak in each page in its carefully crafted order. Highly recommended.


About the book Never has a book so boldly detailed the collateral damage caused by raising a child with a drug addiction. It will raise the hair on the back of your neck and at times take your breath away as the author’s tale of trying to make it through another day unfolds like dirty laundry. It is painfully honest and reads like a roller coaster out of control. From the moment you open the book you will be captivated by the lyrical this book gave me “chicken skin” as we say conversations between the it in Hawaii. it’s an easy.....but ugghhh so author and the angel sent painful read. i could feel her pain! I love her style of writng. She tells it like it is ... no to watch over her. You will holding back here! i recommend this book come to understand that the not because the author is a girl friend of mine, but because she paid me. (LOL). the unconditional love of a book is available @ parent can be so binding, http://www.authorhouse.com/Bookstore/ ItemDetail.aspx?bookid=57800 so intensely powerful, so completely absorbing that Congratulations Jacqui! Love ya! My love to Sarah and the bad they become willing to lose all of themselves to save an boys. addicted child from dirty dancing with the devil.

16 - I’m still waiting to hear from President Obama. Last week I sent him my proposal for the Stimulus Package. The letter reads...Dear President Obama, Here is my proposal on how we can stimulate our economy. Sincerely, Ria. So you’re probably wondering what my proposal was....It was a vibrator.LOL. FYI, got that idea from a friend. True story, while she was in boot camp she actually recieved a “stimulus package”.
