I realize many people have had to cancel, postpone, and downsize their weddings during this time of Covid. I’m so fortunate that we didn’t have to cancel or postpone my daughter’s wedding. We did have to downsize it. What that meant was many of our loved ones were unable to be present. Some may wonder… Continue reading Covid Weddings: My Experience

Life Update
We’re all so decidedly exhausted of all this Covid. It’s important to look at the small and maybe even big high points when everything feels so very low! So, I felt it was a good time to give an update on my personal, professional, and creative milestones. First, from September to December, I was thrown… Continue reading Life Update
Students and Schools
I have a sophmore and a senior. We've been doing our very best in how we deal with non-traditional schooling. We recently learned that our city will be offering hybrid classes beginning in April. I am the type of parent who seeks to hear from both my children when it comes to making a decision… Continue reading Students and Schools
My Story-Just the Bones
I was born to a young mother who was alone, beside herself, and scared. My biological father chose drugs and alcohol over me. My mother did the very best with the circumstances she was given. She married a physically and emotionally abusive man who spent years hurting both of us. He was a military man… Continue reading My Story-Just the Bones
Book Thoughts: The Dark Half
Since I previously blogged about having recently finished re-reading The Dark Half by Stephen King, I figured I would share a little about my journey. A brief summary of the story: Thad has been writing under a pseudonym, George Stark, for a number of years. He's tired of it and when a journalist threatens to… Continue reading Book Thoughts: The Dark Half

I’d read it a long time ago but happened to get it for free and dived into it again. The story is about… Continue reading What Are You Doing?
Living with Monsters/Little Victories
Possible trigger warnings It's been a bit of time since I last blogged. Three days shy of an entire year. Obviously a lot has changed in our world. I'd like to say a lot has changed for me as well, but I have to think about that a little bit. The best way to think… Continue reading Living with Monsters/Little Victories
Shaken Book Review
Shaken (Mind Reader #1) by Susan Hatler I scrolled through the books on my Kindle and blindly chose this book to read. It was a generously ‘free’ download I’d acquired a while back ago. (Not sure exact date). It goes for $3.99 currently on Amazon. I strongly believe it would be a well-enjoyed $3.99 although it would… Continue reading Shaken Book Review
Unspoken Book Review
Unspoken by Kerrigan Byrne Warning: This is a novella, not a novel. It’s total length is about 60 pages give or take a few. I’ll admit I normally read the book blurb as well as others’ reviews before I go and decide to read a book. That doesn’t mean I won’t read it at all… Continue reading Unspoken Book Review
Coming Home Book Review
Coming Home (Jackson Falls #1) by Laurie Breton There are some books that are just so easy to put down and get back to life’s chores, work, my own writing, and all the other fuss. This was most definitely not one of those books. From the moment I turned to the first page I was totally… Continue reading Coming Home Book Review
