I'm Putting Him On Ebay

Have I said that I really do adore my husband? Have I mentioned that he can't leave anything alone? I have been struggling with figuring out something to submit to the Chicken Soup stories. I have a choice of Chocolate, Coffee, Tea or Wine. I adore chocolate but couldn't think of any "stuffing my... Sign in to see full entry.

Feeling Like A Bad Parent

As Pam and I drove along the freeway today we had a conversation that suprised me. "Mom, just so you know, you might get a call from Mrs. B" "OK, why?"

Better Than WHO? Whom?

I was just reminded indirectly about something that Carl did/said several years ago and I thought I would share. At the time I was editing some work for a friend and I had (still do) a habit of reading in the bathtub. One evening Carl came out of the bathroom and here is the conversation to the best...

What Is Love

Inspired by Pat_B. I love the post she added to her's. Ariel does such a amazing job at explaining it but I wanted to give my take as well. I think we should appoint Pat as our writing workshop director and do a few more like these to see what everyone comes up with. I am not one of those people who... Sign in to see full entry.
