I know I have a lot of catching up with comments today. Pam came and spent the night with me last night, so of course I had bigger priorities. It's so wonderful to have an adult child who is also your best friend. Pam and I were having a conversation in the car today and here is what transpired. I... Sign in to see full entry.

And We Have Lost Another Great One
I just read that Lauren Bacall passed away today at the age of 89. I am saddened by the death but not pained. She lived a great life and I bet Bogie is waiting for her at heavens gate. Robin Williams has hit me hard. I'm a pretty reasonable person and the death of celebrities while it can sadden me... Sign in to see full entry.

Happily Ever After...At Last
Wow it's been almost two years since I posted my last entry here. I last posted from Minnesota and now I am back home in Michigan. I was single, too far away from my daughter and my brother and if I am totally honest I was terribly unhappy and lonely. I lived with a roomate from hell who spent most... Sign in to see full entry.

Nice Day
The new job went nicely. I like the people I work with and it's a fun place to be. It's been a hectic day. I started a new job, had an eye appointment and got new glasses (literally had the new ones in 2 hours). I love, love, love the new glasses. Then I went over the Macy's and got myself a nice...

Oh Yeah, I Used To Really Like That...
I am having a slight case of nerves. I start my new job tomorrow and like any new job, I am a little nervous but I am also very excited. I went to a Writer's Meetup today. I really enjoyed it. One of the things I love about Blogit, is being in the company of others who know that writing is not... Sign in to see full entry.

Why Boys Suck--The Rest Of The Story
This is probably the only place, I will share the entire story as I have no desire to embarrass Pam nor do I have any desire to slame Carl in a public way. We all know what happened and hopefully, we have all learned to do better the next time. I would bear witness over the next few years as Pam... Sign in to see full entry.

Writing Versus Storytelling
I am not a great writer. Before you all start debating with me let me say this. When it comes to the technical end of writing, I know the rules and when I feel like it, I follow most of them. With that said: I detest editing, when I begin writing the voices in my head take over and the minor details... Sign in to see full entry.

Why Boys Suck
The inspiration as I begin writing my book for Pam and all the young women in my life. I hope you enjoy. I will catch up with everyone over the weekend. Several years ago my daughter had a shoe box that held her various treasures. I don’t know that she kept anything of material value in that box,... Sign in to see full entry.

Decoding Social Media
I am not a huge fan of social media. As a matter of fact, I simply don't understand it but as a person who is trying to get a business off the ground and the majority of my business comes from word of mouth and the internet, I am forced to use things like Twitter (what is the point of that anyway),...

Doctors, Time Off Work And A Wake Up Call
So it comes down to this: I'm on restrictive duty by the doctor after taking a nasty fall at work. I personally think the doctor is milking a very minor issue so they can make money but I can't go against doctors orders in the even an issue arises down the road. Besides, Starbucks is worried about... Sign in to see full entry.
