I have waited a few days so that I have had time to really think about what was said when President Bush addressed a joint session of Congress for the 2007 State of the Union. I have to think that if I were to place myself in his shoes, I might sound different than I… Continue reading State of Disunion
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

I have spent some time going… Continue reading Aspirations 2007

This year it is 19 days later and I am just reviewing. Aspirations for 2006 Submit art and get published. To this end,… Continue reading Reviewing 2006

What is it about college-aged kids? I realize that they are similar to what we use to call pre-teens. They are adults. Most are on their own in some small way, but they are still children. 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
