Posting the Post
I know writers who do a post a week, others who post several times a day. When I am posting regularly I aim for once a day and am lucky if I hit 6 in a week. Then when I am not posting I am busy living my life and adventuring in my own way.…
Read MoreClean Freak
To be honest I was always in trouble as a kid for leaving things out, like my coat and my shoes. Now as an adult I am too often accused of being a clean freak. My husband just aggressively set his glass by the sink and reminded me it was his. That is his subtle…

My Birthday
I have been very lucky to be married to one of the nicest men on earth. He was waiting for me after work, ready to place our order for food as soon as I called my Dad. Instead of going over there and helping out, we were going out together to pick up our favorites…

Watching real world conflicts along with real world destruction has left me feeling sad and hollow.…
