My imagination tends to fly in a million directions and it takes a cage to keep it focused.

Read MoreA whole mess of snow fell on us over night and into this morning. Yesterday I got caught up in writing and our plans for dinner got sidetracked between ice and time. Did I mention that the sky snotted on us and it froze? You should have seen the truck all glazed and dripping with ice. It was impressive and I would have taken a picture, but my head was…
