• Finding My Groove

    “Something Good” Sunday I found my creative groove. After spending some time being resentful of the idea that I need to have a large social media presence in order to get my book published, I have gotten fully on board with it. I’ve been working on posting things on all of my accounts each day,…

  • Writing Inspiration and a Moment of Zen

    “Something Good” Sunday There have been quite a few good things this week. It’s definitely been interesting. From going to the mall for the first time in a long time and bringing home an artifact from my teenage years–a blue lava lamp to trying a new restaurant last night with Josh. Not just any restaurant,…

  • 2016

    “Something Good” Sunday There’s a trend on social media right now. People are posting pictures of themselves from 2016. I guess somehow 2026 was picked as the year that we compare ourselves to who we were 10 years ago. I’ll play along. This is a good thing for me to reflect on since it’s Sunday…

  • He Took Me Seriously. Again.

    I’m a generally creative person. I knit and crochet. I’m crafty in other ways and other mediums too. But I’m also creative, I believe, in my writing and my husband just enabled me to take my creativity to a whole new level. With my desire to be a published writer one day, I have been…

  • So Much Happiness

    When are you most happy? I’ve got a lot of things I could say about when I’m the most happy. There have been a lot of posts about it. In fact, I have a whole, “Things That Are Making Me Happy” category here. This year has brought a lot of happiness. So many things. Engaging…

  • 5Ws Wednesday-What’s going on?

    For Wednesday’s, non-WP-daily-prompt post, I think I’m going to throw a W question out there. Who, what, when, where, why…and maybe if I’m feeling spicy, I’ll ask a ‘how’ question. The question on this first Wednesday is: What’s going on? And by going on, I am referring to the social media trend of standing with…

  • Am I Supposed To?

    How do you manage screen time for yourself? I know a blogger who is going to have something to say about this prompt! Her post yesterday focused a lot on screen time. Talking about you Squiggle Line Cafe! With yesterday’s question being about time, I didn’t really include screen time. To answer about it today…

  • Reluctantly Social

    Come on WordPress, let’s get with some new prompts. This is another verbatim repeat. Last year I wrote about the Post Secret website (postsecret.com) and To Write Love On Her Arms twloha.com. Both great websites related to bringing awareness and support to people with mental health issues and also for helping people connect and feel…

  • Computers. Who needs ‘em?

    Your life without a computer: what does it look like? Another prompt that we had exactly one year ago today. And here, again, is what I wrote a year ago: It’s pretty ironic that we are answering the question about what life would look like without a computer…on a computer. That was my entire post,…

  • Leading the Masses

    Do you see yourself as a leader? The question back in May, I believe, asked if we were a leader or a follower. My response to that is here: But do you want to? With a few more months in my pocket since reflecting on the leader in me, I sort of see myself as…
