Celebration, Compassion, and New Quarterly Goals🎆🧨🎇
Hello and happy mid-week!This may be a short week for some since Friday is the 4th of July. Our country’s independence is something to be celebrated—I just wish it were quieter. Unfortunately, the beautiful fireworks scare and torture those with PTSD and animals. Every year, many dogs, cats, and other pets go missing during this […]
The Echo Of A Dream ~ Brought On A Loss of Words
Hello and Happy Sunday! Some may say it’s rare for me to be at a loss for words, but today, I kind of am. I think it’s because of the semi-bad and gross dream I had this morning. I’d rather not go too deeply into it, but I will say it involved death, decay, animals, […]
A Snippet of My Dangerous Desires
Hello and Happy Wednesday! Well, for at least another 5 minutes. I spent most of the day researching locations, native American tribes in researched locations, dogmen sightings in chosen location, and writing. I did a few other things of course, but the majority of my day was doing what I love, “writing” and making a […]
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, […]
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 […]
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 […]
This Week Went to the Dogs 🐶
This past week, I was in Texas visiting family and house-sitting, along with dog-sitting. My sister and her family have three large dogs and one medium-sized one. I love animals of all kinds, and dogs are just so darn lovable. On the flight to Texas, I met a man who had his golden doodle with […]
