See The Soloist with Jamie Foxx as a schizophrenic cellist

June 9, 2009 By Julie Lomoe Leave a Comment

Today I saw The Soloist, featuring Jamie Foxx as a homeless man with schizophrenia who had been a gifted cellist and a student at Juilliard, and Robert Downey Jr. as a burned-out reporter for the Los Angeles Times. The film is based on a true story that became a book by the reporter, Steve Lopez…. [Read More]

Death on a two-lane road

Death on a two-lane road

Driving to the Y this morning, I made my usual stop at the end of  Geiser Road before turning left onto Route 43. All clear, I thought. I glanced again – an enormous truck was barreling down the hill, hauling two trailers piled with gigantic logs. If I’d made that turn, I’d have been history. I was… [Read More]

Round Midnight: a poem for my mother

June 6, 2009 By Julie Lomoe Leave a Comment

Thanks to everyone who shared their feelings in regard to my posting about my earliest memories of my mother, Vi Lomoe. Our parents remain such a vital part of our lives, even if they’re no longer with us in this worldly realm.

June 4, 2009 By Julie Lomoe Leave a Comment

In one of my earliest memories, I’m sitting at my mother’s feet, scribbling on yellow manuscript paper as she types at her dropleaf desk. I must have been about three, the age of my granddaughter Jasper today, and I was quieter, more introverted than Jasper. Still, it’s a wonder my mother got any work done. She was writing… [Read More]

Hip hip hooray! I’ve made it through the B.A.D. Challenge!

May 31, 2009 By Julie Lomoe Leave a Comment

It’s May 31st, and I’ve made it through the Blog-A-Day Challenge on Blog Book Tours. I’ve earned bragging rights: I only missed one day, because I was down in Woodstock taking care of my granddaughters and didn’t get back till midnight. But since there are 31 days in May, I figure I’ve still blogged for an entire… [Read More]

Memories of Etan Patz

May 30, 2009 By Julie Lomoe Leave a Comment

I vividly remember the day Etan Patz disappeared. At our rented raised ranch in Poughkeepsie, we still got the local TV news from New York City, and my husband and I were watching when a picture of the smiling six-year-old flashed on the screen. The announcer said he’d disappeared that day: Friday, May 25, 1979. The news… [Read More]
