Ringing In The 2025 New Year and New Goals
Hello and Happy Holidays, Everyone! I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and was able to be with loved ones. I mentioned that this was my first Christmas ever with my sister and, in turn, also her family. This includes my mini-me, whom I miss terribly already (crazy energy and all). It is times like […]
Happy Holidays!
Hello Everyone, I should have posted this earlier, but I am taking a break this week. Fun times with family are important, so I may not be posting next Wednesday either since it will be Christmas. I wish you a week filled with love, laughter, gifts of happiness, and delivered with hugs. May you have […]
Quality Time with Family💕🎄💕
During the holidays, we come together with family, especially those who live outside of our local zone. Some gather around the dinner table, others around the Christmas tree, but we all spend what we hope is quality time together. Too often, we get caught up in the daily distractions of our lives, neglecting quality time […]
Digging Deep With Creative Nonfiction – Part 2
Last Wednesday, I shared some of my classwork from creative nonfiction. I spoke about it being harder to write than I thought and how I ended up tossing what I started off with. I shared the first draft that I planned to submit. It was ok, but still not what I was aiming for. Today, […]

Those were some of the good memories sprinkled through the not-so-happy times. Regardless of the past, our present is always the most important. […]
From Anesthesia to Creativity: Reflections in Words
Yesterday, I failed to post because I had a medical procedure. All went well, but after coming home, I primarily slept. Anesthesia and I get along rather well, which is why I slept most of the day. The rest of the day, I was trying to rewrite, actually completely redo, my homework for my creative […]
Cherished Memories and Gratitude🙏
Happy December 1st! There are eight main holidays here in the US; the two most recent that have actually passed: Halloween (yes, it is a main holiday for some) and Thanksgiving, which we just finished up a few days ago, except for the leftovers which may last a while longer. All in all, these through-the-year […]
A Brief Peek Into How I Choose Book Locations!
Happy Wednesday! I’m taking a little break today as I have a few things I want and need to do before tomorrow. I’m preparing the items I will be taking for the family’s Thanksgiving get-together as I’m sure some of you are as well. I will briefly touch on how I like to research the […]
Where Did the Time Go… Reflections of a Week with Tears and Gratitude
I can’t believe how fast the weekend and today got away from me. With it speeding by so quickly, I missed posting my Sunday blog. I apologize for missing yesterday’s timeline. This past week was a bit emotional in a few different ways. First, in class, we are working on creative non-fiction writing. This, for […]
