I guess I'm completely obsessed now with this prompt for the Weekly Photo Challenge; if three posts for the same prompt can be considered obsessed. I was looking through pictures on my laptop for some to send to a co-worker for an upcoming publication. She asked if I had any from the recent Annual Walk … Continue reading Just One More Snap(shot)

Another Snapshot
I really enjoyed yesterday's prompt and since it was to post only one photo, I did. However, two pictures of the same era of my life really made me smile. This one is also of girls in pretty dresses, but as you can see I did not have a headband in my hair like my … Continue reading Another Snapshot
Snapshots and Memories
I really like when the Daily Prompt requires a picture; some days it makes the posting so much easier! Open the first photo album you can find — real or virtual, your call — and stop at the first picture of yourself you see there . Tell us the story of that photo. When I … Continue reading Snapshots and Memories
Split Second Story – Weekly Photo Challenge

I took over leadership of the human resources department recently, as a result the practice of interviewing is front and center in my daily work. In the course of my career I've interviewed well … Continue reading The Art of the Question
The Way You Make Me Feel
To all the people in my life who have made me feel appreciated, valued, and most of all loved, Thank You!
The Kelly Song
As is often the case at the end of a long work day, I look to Word Press for inspiration. Typically, I can find something to connect with when I read the Daily Prompt, but today I had to dig deeper. One of the bloggers that I follow, Sabethville, used a prompt that I thought … Continue reading The Kelly Song
Vietnam War Memorial, Never Forget
In honor of Memorial Day 2014 When I was in college we had different speakers come to our dorms in the evening to talk with us. An effort to extend the learning outside the classroom and a chance for faculty members to "connect" with students differently, we would listen to professors or staff who had … Continue reading Vietnam War Memorial, Never Forget
