Ending The Estate Sale
Wow. I am still finding the words to describe the past 72 hours. Add on to it this morning’s events and the drive to our destination this evening. After our delicious supper we are all enjoying some relaxation tonight. Then I was able to exchange a few texts with my boyfriend. It was the icing…

What have you been putting off doing? Why?-Writing Prompt
The question isn’t what I have put off it’s simply that I don’t have funds or resources to do so at the time. This week I was able to put aside my fears of failure and practice the piano while working at our Family Estate Sale. It was fully inspired by two of our customers…

Felt Like A Grown Up-Writing Prompt
There are a lot of surreal moments in my life. It’s hard to know when that first time was… although I had to grow up in different ways during high school.

My alarm was set for 6:50 am. Mom and I made it to Grandma’s house literally five minutes before 8 am. Already a line of cars were at the house. It’s a good thing we weren’t the ones to open the house and the garage this morning. My goodness though our lane was crowded. I…

What’s something you would attempt if you were guaranteed not to fail.-Writing Prompt.
Doesn’t that sound a little too cushy. Maybe as a child parents tend to do this when they are close by, but now as I am not a child it’s different. We are not guaranteed success in life. I have had failures and picked myself up and tried again. Even with piano lessons I started…

Relaxation
This is Grandma Betty at the back door that is now her breezeway. This bloom is from the front of her house. Today has been quite a day. Unfortunately I slept in a bit more than I intended. Walking helped though. I needed my time, 40 minutes, in the fresh air. Tuesday was a stressful…

The Speaker Vote
Fortunately with the seriousness of the Israeli Attack our lawmakers seem to be taking this as they promised to. A candidate has been selected behind closed doors with a secret ballot. Still this is not the final vote. Rep. Steve Scalise has been tallied to have been the winner of this secret ballot. Yet like…
