Goodbyes
“Describe a phase in life that was difficult to say goodbye to” I’m middle-aged, so I’ve been through quite a few life phases. Some were not so hard to let go of… teenage years (goodbye and good riddance). My partying, early twenties… My thirties… I feel like I hit my stride during my 40s but…

Ambition
Describe the most ambitious DIY project you’ve ever taken on. I’ve had my share of ambition. A few of the most ambitious DIY projects- Covering this enormous pizza oven at my old house (my ex had built it) completely in mosaic tiles. Having a home birth (with midwives). Changing a tire. Fixing my sink (I…

Banned
If you could permanently ban a word from general usage, which one would it be? Why? I’m not much for banning words… comes too close to banning books in my mind, for some reason. And there’s a slight problem- just because you ban the word doesn’t mean you ban the actual thing that is that…

What’s Your Poison?

At My Age
What were your parents doing at your age? When my parents were in their early 50s, they were doing pretty much the same things I’m doing- working, being active in their activities that they’d put on hold while raising kids, getting involved with hobbies. But something that they were doing that I am not is…

Dream Home
Write about your dream home. It would have lots of sunlight… Trees all around… Like black walnut, and weeping willow… A lilac bush and a garden… But the best part of it would be the people that would be there. That’s what makes my dream house a home. 🙂 What would be in your dream…

If I Got Great News…
I’d share it! I’d be texting and calling my family. My friends. I’m not much of a social media sharer these days, but I keep in close touch with the ones that matter most to me. 🙂 What would you do?

Night Owls Vs. Early Birds (Part II)
What happens when we’re up all night? Or half of it? When I was working third shift as an RN, I’d get home around 8 or 830 in the morning and then try and sleep for at least 6 hours or so. It worked sometimes, but sometimes it didn’t. Even when I got sleep, I…
