Why are there so many songs about rainbows and what’s on the other side? Rainbows are visions, but also illusions, and rainbows have nothing to hide. Kermit T. Frog “The Rainbow Connection” The Midwest had some good old fashioned thunderstorms recently, the kind that evoke summer and interrupted ballgames, swims in pools, hikes. The air […]

It’s Okay
There are days I just can’t write. When I say that, I don’t mean I didn’t write anything, since I am always writing. There are days that I don’t work on the story that has been brewing in my head. The one I thought I was writing next. After all, I am still writing my […]
Reading
I have always loved to read. I think it was just something that came naturally to me. My mom loves to tell people that she taught me my alphabet as a young child and the sounds each of the letters made. She also loves to tell people that I just kind of learned all on […]
Storms in the Afternoon
There was a bit of excitement in my little part of the Midwest yesterday. A tornado hit just one mile south and then just under 2 miles east of where I live. While thankfully, no one was seriously injured in our area, there was significant damage done to a number of houses, a stable east […]

I am owned by a wonderful senior cat. Her full name is Her Royal Highness, the Princess Twixx Buttercup, but […]
Frustrations and Patience… a waiting game
I get frustrated sometimes. Lately, it seems I am frustrated a great deal, especially at night when I am tired and staring at my computer after a long hard day. Thankfully, I have a saint of a husband who helps me deal with these frustrations. Part of my malaise lately is due to the weather. […]
Mornings
Mornings are one of my favorite times to write. Though my recent #NaNoWriMo2021 stats might say otherwise since I updated more often at night, I tend to enjoy doing a great deal of writing in the morning, especially on my days off. The hubby and I currently live in a smallish apartment and the windows […]
