I missed the past few daily prompts. I started several drafts but couldn't connect the mental dots into anything logical at the time. So, in Draft Land they will stay. I'll give you a quick recap, though, because the irony is not lost on me. On Thursday, the prompt was "what is the last live …
What's a job you would like to do for just one day? Muwhahahahaha <evil laugh> For one day only, I'd like to be the CEO of a major television news media outlet. Or the News Director. Whoever decides what airs. And it would be my day, my rules. The news station would ONLY be allowed …
What are your favorite brands and why? I've never been too concerned with brand names. If something fits, if it tastes good, if it works - I like it. I don't particularly care if it's "in" or popular. Celebrity endorsements hold zero clout with me. I'm not saying that I haven't fallen prey to some …
What gives you direction in life? For the longest time, "the pursuit of happiness" has been my compass. What equated to "happiness", exactly, depended on where I was in my life. Happiness looked like a lot of different things over the years. I chased love over counties, countries, and sometimes continents, all in the pursuit …
Good morning, fellow Bloggers! We're a dying breed, aren't we? With shorts and reels and stories, less and less written content is being published. I hate it.

Instead of writing about them, I chose to submerge myself fully and deal, when necessary. A quick summation of the last two months: My husband and I finally finished …
5:45. Lying in bed during one of those precious moments of in between, not asleep but not quite fully awake, I sensed a movement next to the bed. As I began to get my bearings, I realized that it was none other than Jesse the Cat. At 5:45 in the morning. Full-on psycho mode, bounding …
I had to work late tonight, our kitchen is a construction zone due to new countertops being installed, and I just didn't feel like making an effort. In my book, that's what I call a trifecta: we were getting take out for dinner. After picking up our Subway sandwiches, I mentioned to the kids how although …
Last Thursday, my son's summer baseball season ended with a great big championship game win and a story for you, my dear readers. Back when Jameson's baseball season started, I noticed one of the other mothers sitting by herself during one of the practices. Her lawn chair was parked away from all of the other parents and she seemed …
I am all about gratitude. Every morning after I wake, I whisper "thank you" three times for getting the chance to live another day. Yeah, probably should've mentioned that one to my hubby; the first couple of times I started doing that, he thought I was possessed. I feel very fortunate. Every day, I reflect on three things …
