Dreidle, dreidle, dreidle… Here is a wire menorah section – I’m working on this for an upcoming book… I’m terribly late iwth it – but it’s not my fault! The wire took forever to arrive – and then the main color was missing! At any rate – here’s hoping it’s still in time to be…

Settling Back In My feet touch the ground, then they’re off again. The ankle is healing very nicely, all things considered a much more minor sprain than I thought it was. I started watering the lawn today just in time for a thunderstorm to roll in. My mind is in 100 places, divided and hard…
