I Will Remember
Screenshot Saturday Today’s screenshot was saved on May 24, 2023. As I recall, I had just finished my first year of grad school and my last year as a teacher. It’s curious to me why I saved this. It’s possible that after a year of grad school I still wasn’t sure about wanting to become… →

The Covid Journals
Flashback Friday Given that a deadly virus is in the news again, I thought I’d use today to flashback to the virus that created the most recent global pandemic. People are worried, and rightly so, that the hantavirus will affect us like Covid did. The experts are almost certain that it won’t, which is good.… →

Overrated But Still Good
I’m going to twist this prompt into a bit of a pretzel with my answer. First of all though, to answer the question as it is, I guess I could say Pride and Prejudice is overrated. I read it in one of my college English classes and while it was a good book, I just… →

Underrated, But Oh So “Cool”
Y’all are lucky. I was about to make this post about Hamilton, yet again. But I wasn’t going to write about Alexander Hamilton himself, I was going to write about Marquis de Lafayette because the city where I live is named after him. But I’ll spare you since I’ve probably got at least 4 or… →

I Like Stuff
I’m not a fan of minimalist living so I’m not sure that there are benefits, let alone big ones. To be fair, I do see minimalism as a good thing for some people. It’s probably nice to not have a home cluttered with stuff. I appreciate the time after I clean and straighten rooms in… →

Pure Nostalgia

On the Road Again…but not like that.
“Something Good” Sunday Today is Mother’s Day. Never a good day for me. I’m a daughter whose mother is still alive but I have chosen not to talk to her anymore. I am also a wife unable to have children of my own. Josh and I went out to breakfast because the knobs on our… →

Living the Dream
Screenshot Saturday This question today is asking about what my ideal life would look like as if it is something in the future that I am not yet living. However, for me, the future is now. I am currently living my ideal life. I even found a screenshot that I captured a year ago that… →

Ladies and Gentlemen…
Flashback Friday Ladies and gentlemen…once again, Katy Perry! I haven’t been to a lot of concerts in my life. Always admired my friends who went to great shows, but somehow I never thought that I could go see great concerts. I did see New Kids on the Block one time on one of their Mix… →

True Crime
5Ws Wednesday My current reading selection is Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil by John Berendt. I’m about halfway through it. This one has sat on my bookshelf for a very long time. I remember picking it up at the book store and thinking it was some literary classic, a la Charles Dickens… →
