Summer Writing Day #2
Gray stood on the end of the dock, swaddled in her grandmother’s quilt. Her eyes closed under her wild morning hair and her lips spread into a smile. Through her eyelids she saw the orange glow of the sun rising on the other side of the lake. Midst was rising off the calm waters. SheContinue reading “Summer Writing Day #2”

Living in Minnesota there’s a line on the highways as the weekend nears that lead to the many lakes throughout the State. More campers and tents are visible as we try to reconnect with nature and escape the noise of the city. Trails are filled with hikers, bikers, and explorers looking for exercise and thoseContinue reading “Summer Writing”
Monday Memories
Saturday was filled with wedding vows, muted pink bridesmaid dresses, and a church full of family and friends. The niece I used to babysit was getting married to her sweetheart. All the children who used to run around and throw tantrums were all graduated. I hugged the relatives that I missed last year because ofContinue reading “Monday Memories”

Repeat Day!
I don’t know how well you did yesterday with your rhyming but my skills out loud need help. Talk about a brain freeze. This means that it’s time to do a repeat of yesterday’s exercise but in writing. I may need to do this on the weekend if this exercise doesn’t work right away. Today,Continue reading “Repeat Day!”
Night Owls!
The sun is going down behind the clouds this evening and much needed drizzle for our brown grass. Our grass looks like it moved out West this year. I can hear the stories churning, and I wonder how many will have droughts or weather related content inside. My post today is in the evening becauseContinue reading “Night Owls!”
Celebrating Independence
I hope everyone enjoyed their Independence yesterday! I have to say that I’m thankful to live in a place where I can express myself through art and writing freely. I’m grateful to have a roof over my head, and to never lack for food. Being a foodie, maybe I indulge a little much. There’s aContinue reading “Celebrating Independence”

The Circus Is In Town
Okay, the weekend was a little chaotic trying to get everything ready for show day but it paled in comparison to last night. I think a full blown circus decided to move into town for a few days because I feel like every performer in the show. Not only am I the plate spinning, acrobat,Continue reading “The Circus Is In Town”
