And when I returned home today, after working at school
all day (not that I'm complaining) there was the new
Elle Decor waiting for me like a trusty friend.

I didn't have a lot of time to catch up, but, like all good friends, she delivered just what I needed. I was a little bitter, as she looks absolutely flawless, while I am a bit haggard and tired. She didn't mention it, of course. We'll sit down for a long visit soon, but somehow, just knowing she's there makes all the difference.
