I LOVE YOU, GRANDPA...I LOVE YOU

This is yet another post ode to my great-grandfather.... Tomorrow is going to be a rough one for me. On April 12, 1920, my great-grandparents, William Cole and Evelyn Nakin were married. Actually, they eloped. My Nana's father forbid them to marry because she was only sixteen years old. Grandpa was... Sign in to see full entry.

SWIMMING THROUGH PEA SOUP

LENA...CONTINUED

The house is damp and dark. The drapes have been drawn…a good sign. Lusia draws the infant from her shawl and slowly makes her way up the stairs. Paintings adorn the hallways and Lusia wonders if the house belonged to the woman in them. In the master bedroom, Lusia does exactly as she was told. The... Sign in to see full entry.

A DANGEROUS STRANGER....CONTINUED

And now...At long last...The adventure continues!!!! "What happened, Nick?" The skin around the hospital bracelet was chafed, the wounds fresh. What have I gotten myself into? Something I'd regret for the rest of my life, I was certain. Nick just lay there looking up at me with unfocused eyes.... Sign in to see full entry.

HOW MUCH IS THAT DOGGIE IN THE WINDOW?

I want a dog…I love dogs!! I’ve had them in my life ever since I can remember. In the apartment complex where I live, we’re not allowed to own one. In many ways, I can see the reasons behind it. In the first place, the apartments here are extremely small…Especially once you move the furniture in!!... Sign in to see full entry.
