Okay, so this entry is not really about the top 10 blog tags. It is about two out of those top ten. I never thought to put my poetry on my blog but since reading that poem and poetry are in the top ten blog tags, I have decided to put one out there.… Continue reading Top 10 Blog Tags
This topic is so odd as I was just completing – or making more complete – my profile on a dating site yesterday. One of the topics was what’s on your playlist? I don’t know for sure that my soundtrack would ever be listened to by anyone else. It is extremely varied and depends, not… Continue reading The soundtrack of my blog is by …
I know that this topic has been a big one for me this month – or maybe it is just the past few days. I have a friend who is a published author and also a webmistress. I was caught by an article on her web site that I know I have read before but… Continue reading Goals
So what is it about a new year that makes people want to set resolutions? Does the average resolution setter realize there is more to reaching a goal than just setting a resolution?

My freshman daughter announced last Sunday, while watching her team play in a wild card game, that she was… Continue reading What is it about college-aged kids?
Happy New Year! I know, as the title says, a day late and a dollar short. I had to get my thoughts about history down. I had been thinking them in my mind for several days but was going through a “no computer” time so didn’t get them down. Actually picked up a journal and… Continue reading Day Late, Dollar Short…LOL
