Quiet on the Lesbian Front

Been a little quiet of late, huh?  Well, I just received a job offer that has me very busily trying to wrap up old business and prepare for the new.  I have a four week buffer where I'll have one foot in each job.  It is an opportunity of which I could not dream a […]

I'm part of a national LGBT blogging email list and my inbox has probably […]

Hunger and Stuff

One of the members of the Northside Social Workers (NoSoWo) Subversive Committee sent me this link … $25 Challenge.  A group of food bank folks and allies in Illinois took a challenge to survive on a food budget of $25 per person for an entire week.  That's the average amount of food stamps folks receive […]
