Welcome
About
When Logan is not busy writing her notes and observations for her upcoming book titled Dear Navel Diary, Are You Listening?, she might be quilting. She has a vast collection of quilts, some that she made with her father during his last years. If she is not with her quilts, the dog is probably taking her for a walk or she is engaged with students at the University of Colorado Denver where she is a faculty member.

This book takes people to places they didn’t know they should go . . . .

I just wanted to let you know, my mom LOVES your book! She’s has been telling me some of the excerpts she likes when we talk. She said she relates so much to your experiences. I’m looking forward to reading!! I think I’ll be able to squeeze in a couple of hrs tomorrow.
Dr. Leslie Leach -
I have enjoyed reading it and I’m sure I will pick it up again to reread.

I just got your book today and started to read; now I have gotten exactly half way through and must stop because my eyes won’t focus any longer. Reading along, I hear your voice, your inflections, and your laughs, as you describe and reveal many of the things that are happening to me too. Well, not the perfect navel and beautiful belly, but the other things that you are talking about, for me, it feels like.

. . .Thanks so much for sharing yourself in this way with me. I especially resonated with the chapter on how your mother like blue, and you don’t. My mother loves blue, and although it looks great on me, I don’t usually wear it because of her (that’s sad, I know!)

OK. . .here is my review of my mother reading the book. “STOP LAUGHING SO HARD, MOM.” That is all I have heard from her room today. She finished the book already. She told me it is the funniest book she has ever read. She has laughed so hard that her back hurts! She swears Diann Logan was writing about her. “Every word is so true Meribeth.” Thank you for this hilarious gift. If laughter is the best medicine, then you have cured every pain in a 90-year-old woman’s body today. What is even funnier is her calling all her BFF’S to tell them to buy this book immediately.

What a great read! It certainly has all kinds of application to the rest of us who are dealing with that wonderful thing called the aging process.

Do yourself a favor and read The Navel Diaries. It will take you back in time and engage you in the present, with humor and introspection. As I read, I could smell the smells and see the sights and feel the feelings of things gone by. And I related to the insightful, funny observations about life and advancing age. This book is entertaining as well as thought provoking.
