It’s All How You See It
I've enjoyed the weekly photo challenges and this week's is no exception. It gives me a chance to go back to all the photos I've taken with my cell phone, and some of them aren't half bad! I live in the suburbs, but there is also a fair amount of wooded areas nearby so we … Continue reading It’s All How You See It
Birthday Cake Tradition
Daily Prompt: Time After Time I was born on St. Patrick's Day. Everyone's Irish on that day and conveniently I am anyway, so it makes it an extra special day for me. I also have two older sisters born during that same week in March and we've often celebrated our birthdays together. But we've always each … Continue reading Birthday Cake Tradition
A Reception
Have you ever been to a doctor's office, approached the reception desk, and felt as though you were imposing on the person behind the desk?

When it was originally built, I'm sure it was not intended to become home to a family with eight children. When … Continue reading Stand in the Place Where You Live
Always Something to Remind Me

Be sure to mention the song, and describe the memory it evokes. The radio in my car crapped out earlier this winter. My husband got me a … Continue reading Always Something to Remind Me
It’s Not My Favorite, But I Do It Well
Back On The Chain Gang: Tell us all about the least favorite job/task/chore that you get stuck doing routinely. What is it about this duty that you can’t stand? These days I've enjoyed the fact that I don't find myself doing too many chores at home. My terrific husband does the lion's share of cleaning, … Continue reading It’s Not My Favorite, But I Do It Well

First Day
Weekly Photo Challenge: Abandoned It was the first day of school and this little angel's mom couldn't stay because she had to rush off to work.
