...I've been pondering my friend Mark's entry in his blog entitled, "Right at the Bastards" (I encourage any artistically-inclined and/or creative-thinking person to read this!). As is typical with me, my thoughts travel like a ping-pong ball around in my head, and I began thinking
...I went out on my porch today and sat in my wicker chair to look at the day. A bright blue sky with not a cloud in sight, blindingly bright sunshine, and a whisper of a crisp winter breeze graced my senses. As I scanned
...I've been thinking about the things I say here. I find that even here I am hesitant to say anything that will "offend"; or say anything which will make me sound like I'm complaining or whining. After all, there are a multitude of people out
...Today I took a journey back to me. Back to a part of me I left behind a long time ago. An extremely integral part of who I was the whole time I was growing up. I journeyed back to the only part of me
...I don't know why I always fret so much about getting everything done for Christmas. It always, always has a way of working out in the end. And oh my, did it work out! :) My entire family spent 2 1/2 hours over at my
...It is becoming increasingly obvious that in order for me to escape those things which bring me the most stress, I will have to run away from home. lol Seriously, though, it just isn't gonna happen. Yeah, I've taken a couple weeks off from work,
...It has been ages since I laughed so hard ..... I can't even remember the last time I laughed 'til I cried and couldn't catch my breath ..... until tonight. :) What began as a serious chat between friends quickly turned into a laughfest with
...This is a wreath to travel our blogs and keep us connected during this special time of year. Save this image to your server and put it up on your site, linking back here. I got my wreath from Monica. Speaking of Monica ...
...Okay, so I'm not as strong as I thought. Or as I once was, anyway. I finally listened to what my body has been screaming at me for a while now, and enjoyed the splendor of my doctor's office today. *smirk* Blood pressure high; stress
...I am ending this day with a profound feeling of being blessed. There is so much ugliness in this world .... so many shallow souls .... selfish hearts .... but I have been blessed beyond words by the friendship of some of the most loving
...It was a quiet day. Not so much from without; but from within. I kept to myself today .... didn't talk a lot .... didn't interact a whole lot .... was just .... quiet. I wasn't being introspective or thoughtful, either. I wanted to get
...Memories are short, The good, all but forgotten, Only anger and selfishness stand tall in the foreground of now; Efforts in caring blur before eyes unfocused, Seen only by the heart of the giver, Appreciated so briefly by those to whom it is given ....
...Earlier this evening, I was feeling every ache and pain of a long, hard day .... I was thinking about another long, hard day on tap for tomorrow; but after reading the words written by a new friend of mine (thanks mark), I have been
...I have a friend who is the most amazing writer I've ever known. He has blessed me with his gift more times than I can count. In exchanging emails with him last night, we began talking about birds, just in passing. He said he had
