It’s time for my yearly fundraising campaign!! Although, I wish I felt the enthusiasm of the exclamation points right now. I didn’t have one until two years ago, when I made a commitment to being more involved with the charity I support the most… Continue Reading “Feeling Life and Living Love”

I had about 350 words written and then decided to chuck them… There is something I wanted to say but when I read it back to myself, it felt best left for a journal entry…so here’s this instead. A few weeks ago, I… Continue Reading “All That I Want”

Almost 2 months away seems really bizarre… The truth is I have been writing. I’ve written letters to pen pals, two poems, a chapter in my book and LOTS of letters that I’ll never send. The lesson I learn time and time again is… Continue Reading “I’ve got a crush on you”

As I mentioned in the last post of Turn the Page, reading really hit a lull for a few weeks. I am a true believer in everything that happens is trying to teach me something. February not only came/went too quickly, it had more… Continue Reading “February’s Tangled Web”
