In Santa Clara the temperature reached 93 degrees. I drove south to Morgan Hill to visit a friend. It was 98 there!<\/p>\n
The heat of the past two days has shriveled the part of my brain capable of writing and speech. Yesterday I lay down just for a moment and regained consciousness three hours later.<\/p>\n
I wish I had something more substantial to share. Instead, you might visit:<\/p>\n
Cheerio Road<\/a>: Karen Mazen Miller, author of Momma Zen: Walking the Crooked Path of Motherhood<\/a>, has started a blog. She captures the essence of life in her reflections. I’ve read her book and will treasure it as a meditative resource after my Little One is born.<\/p>\n The Meming of Life<\/a>: a blog by humanist Dale McGowan, editor of Parenting Beyond Belief: On Raising Ethical, Caring Kids Without Religion<\/a>; he’s witty and provocative. I’ve read his book once through and plan to refer to it often as a parent.<\/p>\n Both of these writers and their blogs deserve more articulate praise than I can summon now. I suggest you visit; you won’t be disappointed. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In Santa Clara the temperature reached 93 degrees. I drove south to Morgan Hill to visit a friend.
