It’s been a rough week, so apologies for being a bit absent. Weather woes, moving woes and full time job woes have really been taking a toll on my mental health this week. It’s overwhelming at best, leaving me little time to recharge. I should tell you a story. But where should I begin? As I already have […]
Category: Life in General
Stuff I’ve written about life in general.
Life happens. Enjoy it while you can.
So sometime in the past day or so, I lost a citrine gemstone from the ring my other half had special ordered for me almost two years ago for our fifteenth wedding anniversary. Somehow in the course of packing, moving, cleaning or whatever, one of the prongs opened and the stone simply fell out. One of […]
New year, same story
It’s been a crazy start to the new year, but it’s been a welcoming start. For those who don’t know, last week the other half and I closed on our very first home. The past week has been a whirlwind of cleaning the new to us house, painting the interior walls, doing some minor repairs that […]
It’s the end of another year
It’s the time of year where everyone shares their accomplishments for the year. And while this post will be no different in that regards, there is also a bit of reflection as well. I had several author and writing related goals I had jotted upon a piece of paper at the beginning of this year: And […]
I love to tell the story
“I love to tell the story, ’twill be my theme in glory / to tell the old, old story of Jesus and His love.” ~ Katherine Hankey “I Love to Tell the Story” (1866) Last night, on Christmas Eve, I sat as I usually do in the tiny church in my little swath of the […]
I am just me
Last month, I was interviewed for the local Norwalk Living magazine. (It can be found here for those who are interested in seeing it – click on the December 2023 edition). I touched based with the author of the article on a whim, encouraged by friends who told me she needed to talk with me. I […]
Recognize the Spark
Recently, I was asked a question. How do you feel loved and connected? I had answered “my family.” But I didn’t mean only the family of blood I have that is dispersed all over the United States, but the family I have made as well, who continue to bless me and keep me on this path […]
Choosing a better, more joyful way
I recently heard a story about a married gay couple who moved into a new neighborhood in a new state following a job acceptance. While getting ready and into their car one night to go to a friend’s house, a car slowed by and slurs and threats were shouted at them, causing some fear. Their […]
I didn’t know you wrote…..
So if you’ve been paying attention to some of my other social medias, you’d know I have published another book in my Portals Series. This one tells the story of the heirs of the Dynast, the Cleric, and the Portal Seeker, continuing the tales of Delphian, the Realm of Original Magic, and even Earth itself. […]
I want peace but it’s not what I’m used to
One of my favorite shows to watch at Christmastime is A Charlie Brown Christmas. My absolute favorite scene of the movie is when Linus tells Charlie Brown, Lucy, the cast, and pretty much the whole world what Christmas is all about, quoting a certain passage in the Bible. One particular verse of that passage sticks […]
