Thankful 2011
I am thankful for many usual things this year: my family, home(s), animals, food, etc. But I am also thankful for having a phone again. Silly, I know, but this is the 21st century and I am a bit of a geek! We enjoyed a very, nice and quiet Thanksgiving at our new 2nd home…
Ways in which our home is not like other homes
When was the first time that you realized that your home was not like other people’s homes?

Music and Writing Go Together
Can you listen to music and write? What song did you hear today? (NaBloPoMo Prompt for the day) Let me reverse that – can I NOT listen to music while I write? Maybe, but I honestly don’t know. My girls are the same – whatever we are doing that we CAN have music on in…

Some details now… I think the best Alfredo…
My Favorite Part About Writing
Well, here is the first writing prompt for NaBloPoMo. I’ll keep this one short. My favorite part of writing is getting the words out of my head. It’s a release for me. Other favorite things about writing are the ability to chronicle my life, and go back and view it later. Also, having things chronicled…
