A New Favorite
Can’t lie. Despite my much-needed afternoon off, I am still feeling a bit whirlwindish. Yes, that’s a word. English majors are allowed to make up words whenever it suits them. It’s in the handbook. Anyway… It’s Thursday so I’m joining Mama Kat’s Writer’s Workshop again. This week I opted for the easy prompt. (Told you…can’t…
Ten Things I Love/Hate About Me
Know that saying, “The more things change, the more they stay the same?” It’s actually a French proverb, attributed to French novelist Alphonse Karr. An often-debated topic is whether people can actually change or whether a person’s nature is constant throughout his or her life. In considering this question, I thought of several things about…
Soup of the Week – Pilot Edition
I know that I inherited my love of autumn from my Mother. Nobody loves this season quite like my Mom – I am certain of it. The second that the first waft of cooler air passes by, she throws open the windows and puts a pot of stew on the stove. Mom is also good…
Five Favorites for Friday – Third Edition
Not sure why I think anybody but my Fab Hub enjoys the Five Favorites for Friday posts, but I’m going with it. They make him smile. I like when he smiles. And so, without further ado, I submit for your entertainment (hopefully), my five favorites from this week.

It has been a very long week around here. Everyone is tired. We are all just a little bit cranky. My feet hurt. I have very little brain power available and I still have fifteen things to finish before I can even pretend to think about going to sleep. Is it Friday yet?
Still The One
My Fab Hub was never going to be The One for me. If you’ve been here before, you probably already know that when we first met, I thought he was kind of a jerk. I had a litany of reasons why I would not date him. So we did not date. Technically, we never dated.
Five Favorites for Friday
How’s that for some serious alliteration? It has been a really exhausting week for so many reasons. I’m tired. I’m drained. My feet hurt. And I desperately need a shower before I crash face down on the bed and pass out. You know what those days feel like, right? For today, I have just a…
