If you like, then you gotta put a ring on it!
Think of your longest relationship: describe how your love has changed over time, did you go from the giddiness of infatuation, to mad passion, to deep respect, esteem, and friendship? Tell us about your love story. Tonight when I got home, dinner was waiting for me; braised lamb chops, steamed veggies, multi-colored baby potatoes. You … Continue reading If you like, then you gotta put a ring on it!
What I Know for Sure
For today’s prompt, tell us three things that you believe in your heart to be true. Today's prompt got me to thinking about last night. I had dinner with my sisters, Mom, Aunt and a friend celebrating her 50th birthday. 2013 for her was, as she put it to us, a shit-year. She said that … Continue reading What I Know for Sure

I Thought I Knew What I Was Getting
Today's writing prompt asked us to think about this: Tell us about a time when someone had you completely fooled, where the wool was pulled right over your eyes and you got hoodwinked, but good.

One Post, 8 Thank You’s
I'm tired, it's late, and we've already set the clocks ahead one hour for daylight savings time to begin tomorrow. My commitment to writing every day is barely overshadowing my wish crawl into bed and sleep, so here goes.

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
