VIV mag rocks...and not just because they wrote nice things about me! ; )  I was unaware of them until I saw this piece they did on the book two days ago. But after checking out their site, I wanted to highlight this cool, digital-only mag for women.

Are we loving this fall weather? The foliage is ablaze, the geese are flying in honking “v”s across the sky - and I’ve busted out the boot and tights...holding my breath (that is visible now in the early mornings) until I can add gloves to the mix...I love a cool weather wardrobe.

I do NOT love walking out to feed the barn kitties in the freezing air in the early morning, especially since they have now turned the grass alley in between the barns into the display arena for their latest kills. I’ve dubbed that stretch of turf “death row.” Today, the (headless) count was 3 mice and one small rat. Life is full of surprises. Some not so nice - like stepping on a chilly, decapitated mouse at 6 am - and some nicer, like seeing the press (VIV) grab hold of the the AIDS issue and make women aware of their risks. I say, Viva VIV!
