					<description><![CDATA[Kristen, I hope that I eventually get to hang out with you in real life. Your posts are so uplifting, always what I need to read right when I need to read it.

					<description><![CDATA[I always remember a Garrison Keillor, Prairie Home Companion skit, where he said, &quot;Nothing bad happens to a writer, it&#039;s all material.&quot; I&#039;ve tried to live by that.  It got a lot easier when I found Martha Beck&#039;s The Joy Diet: 10 Daily Practices for a Happier Life. It&#039;s a small book but very funny and very practical. Simple but not always easy. It made a HUGE difference for me.  Happy Holidays!]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[[&#8230;] Twig the Fairy My father loved to spin yarns and tell jokes, and one of my favorite jokes of his was the one about the twins (some of you have heard this before, but it never gets old). One was a pessimist and the other was an optimist.&#160; [&#8230;]]]></description>
