It’s Been a Year

It’s been one year. It’s been six years. Two different milestones but really two very interconnected milestones. Six years ago, I toed the line at my first marathon. My mother was a big cheerleader in my running. She never said I shouldn’t do it because I’m too old, I’ll hurt my knees or any of… Continue reading It’s Been a Year

Writing … Here and There

Writing! That seems to be what I have been doing a lot of lately. I have several novels or novellas that I have written. Most of these start off as NaNoWriMo projects but get finished up well after November. I’ve never hit 50,000 words in one month. I’m okay with that as I like to… Continue reading Writing … Here and There

Valentine’s Day and A Book Review

I know Sunday was Valentine’s Day. Back when I had six kids at home, I was always up for celebrating this holiday. I enjoyed picking out cards with the kids or making my own cards. I even bought cards and sent Valentines to the kids once they were in college. This year, though, I opted… Continue reading Valentine’s Day and A Book Review

This Time of Year

Yes, a title like that could get into just about any topic and maybe I will. Or maybe I’ll stick to the topic I was thinking of when I came up with the title. I’m having trouble staying focused this time of year. Normally, because of a spring marathon on the horizon, it is not… Continue reading This Time of Year

Playing Catch – A Book Review

NEW RELEASE… On the field and off the field, bartender Jeanine Jewell plays, collecting one-night stands like baseball cards. She doesn’t need a man, except to curl her toes and make her scream. She’s learned the hard way that the one who cares more is the one who gets hurt—and the last thing she can… Continue reading Playing Catch – A Book Review

Cleansing …

… but not what you are thinking. I am not talking about a cleanse for my body. I am doing a cleanse of my personal belongings as I get ready for a major move. Not going to talk about that today either.   I participated in a webinar last week about email newsletters. Between something… Continue reading Cleansing …

Where Do I Get Products, Books, Races to Review?

I’ve been meaning to get a post like this up for some time. I want you all to know why I review certain items and from where these items come. I will, regardless of where the items come from, always be 100% honest in my reviews. I do not want to read the standard line… Continue reading Where Do I Get Products, Books, Races to Review?

A Connected Church

I’ve been a bit off this week. I have a list of posts I want to get written but I blame my slacking off on the west-east travel from the end of last week. That is just an excuse, though. I just haven’t made time this week.   With Mardi Gras next week and the… Continue reading A Connected Church

February A Curse?

Last year I swore I was so happy February had ended. A lot of change – good and bad – happened in February 2015. Now February 2016 is here and I am hoping to not have a repeat. As the weather goes, I am thinking we are too warm to have the amount of snow… Continue reading February A Curse?

January Gone Already

Sometimes it literally feels like time is flying. The first month of 2016 is gone already. And so I have to look back and see if I am still on track with my annual goals or do I need to reassess. Fitness I am totally good on not having run any marathons in January. I… Continue reading January Gone Already
