The Lost Hour, Plus: A New Book


I just lost an hour of my life because the clocks downstairs are an hour later than the one upstairs. It seems our bedroom clock took itself off of Daylight Saving Time in the middle of the night… 

That hour I lost? You guessed it: it’s the hour I write the blog in. Phooey.



Here’s a local story for your day. From WJZ TV Baltimore:

A Latina artist from Columbia, Maryland, is using her creative talents to uplift Latinas with her first illustrated book, "Viva Latina: Wisdom from Remarkable Women to Inspire and Empower."

Maryland artist inspires Latinas with first illustrated book: "We should celebrate Latinas", Alexus Davila, WJZ TV, CBS Baltimore 

The artist is Sandra Lucia Diaz. The book is Viva Latina: Wisdom from Remarkable Women to Inspire and Empower, by Sandra Velasquez, published by Rock Point.

As we celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month, this might be a good resource to check out. Ask for it at one of your favorite local bookstores. Or put in a request at the library. It came out in September so they may not have it yet.

I’ll see you tomorrow if I figure out how to get my lost hour back. Have a great day!
