Happy Thanksgiving to all of you
Each day about 150 people read my blog. Interestingly enough most of those are unique visitors to the site. The areas that get commented on the most are my entries about loving New Orleans and being in love. But the entry that got the most comments was when I had my chemical peel and posted the day to day progress of the peel.
I started this blog in 2004 because I was going to write about my family – wow, did that ever take a detour – as I moved back to New Orleans in early 2005 after 16 years in California, my writing focused on what was happening to me: Katrina, my affair (btw: don’t regret much, but this I DO), a divorce, and rebuilding from scratch the LaLa in post-Katrina times, as well as falling in love with a woman, and now trying to adopt.
Move over family, Rachel’s in the house.
That chemical peel was symbolic as you can tell. And I’m overjoyed to think that New Orleans is still on the map, Obama was elected president, and I still feel as if I have not even gotten started writing about the wonders all around me.
Thanks for reading my blog and have a happy and fun holiday!
This is me as Pocahontas last Thanksgiving, my first in the LaLa – we had a ton of fun, but this year we are going for small and cozy with my high school friend driving in from Atlanta and mom and the zoo:
