In it to win it...
I was high on daydreams. Thinking about our quality of life without the existence of bills, IF we won the lottery...
Photos are worth a BUNCH of words...
These are 14 recent photos from my cellphone and 565 words to go with them...
Who knew?
Did you know it was Small Business Saturday? It’s one of those things that I didn’t know was a thing. I saw a few posts in my Facebook feed and found out about it just today.
Giving thanks to you...

Weekend at Mimi's...
I enjoyed my weekend as usual. I'm off the mommy clock when I go home. Papa Bear was out of town so I was off the wife clock as well.
No more excuses...
Today’s optional prompt at Jana’s Thinking Place for the 5-minute stream of consciousness was Comparisons/Competition.
Cookies and Books!
The Deployed Military Support Group at my church sends out over 150 care packages to our troops on a monthly basis. On December 6th, they will have a box packing to mail out over 200 boxes of homemade cookies to our deployed troops....
Something I once wore...
Today I'm linking up with Mama's Losin' it today with one from the archives. Her prompts this week are...
Wordless Wednesday: Then & Now
Photos courtesy of Granddaddy. Daddy set up the 'now' shots with the same hat (Mimi saved) from 'then'. Then was almost age 2. Now is almost age 8. The photos are six years and two months apart. Where does the time go?
Veteran's Day (Observed)
Do you ever have one of those bad dreams you can't seem to wake up from? And when you do, you can't shake it?
A needle in a haystack!
Hey look! Did you notice that I cleaned up the place? No? Okay well it might be one of those things only I notice. I need some help though. Can you help me get a needle out of a haystack?
Reach out and touch somebody...
I have always lived away from family. I suppose that is how I adjusted so well to being a military wife. Everywhere I went, I only missed my mom, dad and my brother....
Wordless Wednesday 2012
My dad and I had a big conversation last night during the election.
Breadcrumbs: Me, Myself & I
I shared my first breadcrumbs post last week and it was a hit. So I thought I would make it a thing. This week the breadcrumbs have a theme. Here are links to three Me, Myself & I posts.These posts are my alter egos - written from "their" point of view.
I'm afraid of commitment
5 minutes go.... (freestyle - no editing - no prompt) - It's stream of consciousness Sunday and this is my brain on 5 minutes.
Unearthed...
I am not participating in NaNoWriMo but I did want to contribute to this weekend's Trifextra challenge. We were asked to write exactly 33 words about why we write. Simply put, writing completes me.
Low Maintenance Season...
It is November 1st; a date I just LOVE. It begins the season of what I will no longer do or wear in a no white shoes after labor day kinda way.

Food for thought: Patience and Kindness

Creative Marketing...
Thanks to a 5 minute stream of consciousness I can go ahead and make an announcement that for the life of me I am stressing about the right timing. I love the 5-minute brain dump because I have permission to write and not worry about grammar or mistakes. Today’s writing prompt revised slightly, What do you wish you were better at?
Breadcrumbs...
Because I don't have time to get in here and write something new, I thought I'd leave a few breadcrumbs leading to some archives. You can just pick one. How about that?
