I always have the hardest time writing Author Notes. “My Level of Awareness” is written by me - Robbin. At forty(mumble, mumble)-something, I am an “older mom” to my son, Harry, who has been given the certified child-haters stamp of approval.

Oh, and I write. This is the result. As all things are relative, this is my level of awareness.

It is a testimony to my deep love of my husband that I actually let him TOUCH the D50, let alone take off the lens cap. […]
