Hi Linda,
How are you?
Do you remember what I used to do like all the time when we were in gr. 10, sitting out on the hobo spot?
I made a couple more miniature origami cranes in a bout of insomnia last night.
Making them brought back the strongest sense of nostalgia. I remember my friend Vivian teaching me how to make them while sitting in business class, and I remember eating lots of Starburst candies and cutting the wrappers into squares.
I haven’t made many cranes since maybe the beginning of first year. I think I only have around 700 by now. You know the story about a thousand paper cranes. When I’m done, I think I’d like to give my wine bottle of cranes to a hospital if possible, as a symbol of hope.
Linda, I’m sorry I sounded so pissed off last time. I was pissed off, because I was so frustrated and stressed, but I am sorry. I hope you’ve been enjoying the last of Ottawa.
I’m enjoying the beginning of spring.
Look what little critter I found in the pool yesterday:
Best,
Mary
