Well, that is what it has felt like here, with 10 inches of rain in 72 hours. We got lucky---just a LITTLE water in the basement---others were totally flooded.
Tomorrow I leave for NYC, where I will do a video-taped interview with Barnes & Noble, also an interview with Time (magazine) for Kids, and then out to Long Island to speak at a teachers' conference. Home Saturday, just in time to see my son and his friend who are coming overnight Saturday night and will take me to brunch Sunday for my birthday; then next week I go briefly to Harrisonburg, Virginia. It's a busy, busy spring---but most of it good stuff.
And crocuses are blooming like crazy in my yard.
I don't know how you get so much writing done with your busy schedule.
Today, I was subbing for a middle school reading class and a very sweet young lady came up to me with The Giver and told me how much she loved it and suggested I read it. I had to tell you.

Teacher's conference on LI ? If it's the one I'm thinking of, that's just dow the road from work. Wow! I could sneak into the conference to say hello...but don't think I'd fool anyone.. It'll be a sunny 72 degrees tomorrow, and most of the downed trees have been removed from the roads!
Cheers!
