The glass is always full of something. I’m addicted to stories and expect happy endings. I get to play with words as an editor, translator, blogger and short story writer. By day I work in the publishing department of a government-funded health information organization.

I’ve lived in Ottawa, Canada, all my life and love the city for its nature, its mix of English and French and its small-town feel. I was a Cub Scout leader for a decade-and-a-half. I share my home with Husband, Things One and Two, and Mom-in-Law. We rebuilt half our house several years ago and still have debts and debris to show for it.

I love getting dirt under my fingernails and in my hair and re-memorizing the names of plants every spring. After taking 14 years to crochet a blanket for Thing Two, I’ve discovered how relaxing crocheting is.

I strive to be honest and kind.

    Hi Susan. Great post. Grumblings the Dragon must have a clone, because he seems to be at my house a lot! I really appreciate your thoughtful approach to slaying him. If I may share – what sometimes works for me is to remind myself that I – and only I – have complete control over how I feel. While I can’t control what others do, I can certainly choose my reactions and actions. (Wine can help with that…) Looking forward to your next post! 🙂

      Thanks Kerrie. That’s a good point, well worth remembering.
