Mid-spring into early summer is a busy period with more time needed to be spent outside and not sitting in front of a computer for hours. Much has happened in the interim. As I attempted to pore over news feeds and commentary sources in an effort to gather information, attempt to vet sources, listen to my gut, sort it all out, and then sit to write, something else would happen and the process would begin again, leaving the previous project incomplete. I had every intention of returning to complete each unfinished bit of business but events—disturbing events—seemed to be happening so often and so quickly that it became obvious I would never catch up.
