I am happy to report that spring has arrived in full force here in New York City. The weather is just beautiful --- it’s finally warm enough to read outside! I’ll definitely be taking full advantage of that this weekend, but in the meantime, I’ve really been enjoying my morning walks to work.

The traffic driving home a couple of nights this week was a nightmare; one night it took two hours, which is a lot of time behind the wheel. The annoyance of it was overcome as I listened to THE RAINBOW COMES AND GOES, narrated by Anderson Cooper and Gloria Vanderbilt. The “conversation” between them originated in a yearlong set of emails, and they covered many pivotal and inconsequential moments that have happened in their lives, which I found fascinating. From start to finish, they unraveled so much that had been hidden in their lives, as well as encouraging one another. They are so different and yet so alike. I highly recommend it.
