Writer’s Block and How I Do or Do Not Deal – Part 2
This week I’ve been dealing with feeling overwhelmed about which project to work on first. I have several books started, creative writing homework, art projects, and I’m putting together a YouTube channel with my sister. Hair-pulling to follow… I’m thrilled to have so many things to do, but… when I get overwhelmed (even with good […]
Bittersweet Messages
Have you ever had a Cran-Merry Drink? The ingredients consist of sugar, white grape juice, cranberry juice, blood orange juice, fruit, vegetable juice, stevia extract, coconut milk, coconut cream, cane sugar, and about 15 other ingredients. With all the sugar, you would think it would be sweet, and it is, but it is also tart […]
Writer’s Block and How I Do or Do Not Deal – Part 1
Writer’s block – the art of turning “not” writing into a sport. Procrastination becomes your companion. Ideas of things to write about become things to do instead. When you are in the grips of Writer’s Block, or as I like to say, you’ve been bitten by the Procrastination bug, you might get caught up in […]
Embracing Fun and Friendship on Our Texas Road Trip
Happy Sunday! This was a great weekend. My sweetheart and I went to visit some friends in Texas. He is a gamer (I am too just not as much), and they all play several games together online. Once a year, they have an in-person get-together, and this year, we were able to join in. They […]
From Rabbit Holes to Inspiration: A Few Ideas For Research!
Research can be a fun part of writing; it can also be daunting but necessary. My research usually leads me down a rabbit hole of YouTube videos, audiobooks, books, or even movies. It is also suggested to read what you want to write. I love reading, so picking up a good cozy mystery, romance, paranormal […]
In Loving Memory: Axel’s Final Journey
A rainbow is created when light from the sun is scattered by water droplets through a process called refraction. My belief is that the rainbow bridge, to me, is created from all the tears shed by broken hearts when their beloved pets pass. The angels cry as well because an innocent soul that loved unconditionally […]

Fun Day ~ Sunday!
Hello and Happy Sunday, everyone! Today has been kind of a whirlwind. The weather was beautiful, so I was able to reach my exercise goal with a nice walk to our favorite coffee shop. We also tried to start Axel on his appetite stimulant, but for a dog who moves really slowly these days, he […]
Big Baby Updates (and More)
It’s Wednesday, and honestly, I don’t feel like writing this post right now. I say it’s Wednesday, but the clock has just turned to Thursday. Updating you on my big baby is part of the reason I don’t feel like writing. I know I don’t have to say anything about him and how he is […]
I Apologize for Missing Sunday’s Post🙁
Currently, it is 1:25 a.m., I have an audiobook going, just finished washing the recyclables, starting the dish washer, and am finally starting to feel sleepy. I do have to apologize for missing my post yesterday. I’m sure I will head to bed before I finished writing this, but I will publish it. This has […]
