Daily Prompt: Twilight Zone

Daily Prompt: Twilight Zone One memory that comes to mind was the time my (at time) boyfriend was spending night at my house (actually it was my dad’s house)… He (my boyfriend) was sleeping in the extra bed in the little nook in upstairs hallway. I was asleep in my own bed. I don’t recall […]

I thought this photo (that I just took) would be perfect for this weeks Weekly Pet Challenge entry Just prior to this, Meekah had been resting comfortably in one of her favorite chairs. Suddenly she leaped up and raced to the back door – something sure got her attention.Filed under: photo challenges

Each week Jennifer Wells will host a new “One Word Photo” challenge. I missed the 1st couple. This last week was “Green” (I’m stepping in a bit late on this week). The picture that came to mind was the one if the cacti we saw growing on the roof of the building where we had […]

Silent Sunday: Sitting in the Swing

I know this isn’t a true Silent Sunday post, but here’s my entry for the week. I actually took these picture just now at a friend’s new house: This shows the viewpoint from (basically) behind the swing And this shows the view sitting in the swing: Doesn’t look like much now, but (apparently) said tree […]

Daily Prompt: Duped (Tainted Love)

To protect innocent, no names will be used…. During one of our break-ups (I don’t believe it was the final one) I was not wanting to accept my (at the time) boyfriend’s desire to end our relationship. Looming back now I can realize how stupid & childish I was being clinging to something that was […]

Reliable Realist

A few days back I came across Chris Donner’s post. Who are you? about a Personality Quiz she took. I decided to try the quiz out myself (though it took me a couple days to get around to it). I got Reliable Realist – Which turns out to be another type of “Introvert”. So, am […]

Share Your World – Week 6

Have you watched or plan to watch any of the 2014 Winter Olympics? No, I haven’t watched anything from the 2014 Winter Olympics, and probably won’t. Partly because I don’t get much chance to watch TV (though I might could make time if I truly wanted to – just too many other things more important […]

Word a week: Figure

I could not choose between the two so I devised to use both. I’ve had this “lady” since my childhood days – though I can’t recall when it was (or how) I came to obtain her. At one time I had a name for her, but can’t seem to recall it now. There were a […]

DAILY PROMPT: INGREDIENTS

“What’s the one item in your kitchen you can’t possibly cook with out” ~ Daily Prompt: Ingredients Depending on what I was making, I’d have to say measuring devices would be among some of the most important items…. I know some people have a knack for this kind of thing, but for me “eyeballing” isn’t […]

Daily Prompt: Hated Chores

This post was done for the daily prompt challenge – “those dishes won’t do themselves“. If I had to pick the one chore that I absolutely don’t like, it would have to be dishes. I swear it is impossible for me to do dishes without getting water everywhere (including all over me). No matter how […]

Share Your World: 2014 – Week 5

If you had a choice to live anywhere would be your preference salt water beaches, forest, fresh water lakes, hot tub, ski resort or desert? I kind of like the idea of the forest or fresh water lake. I like the quiet serenity of the mountains & forest. Beaches always seem to draw large crowds […]
