I've just posted an open apology to everyone at the other site. I hope they'll forgive me. Truth be told, I don't often feel deserving of the attention people pay me. Have you ever felt that way? Sign in to see full entry.

I haven't done much writing at that other site I signed up for. The responses I've had thus far have been gracious and kind, but I'm still feeling a bit out of place. It isn't that I don't want to write there...I do, otherwise I wouldn't have signed up...but I feel like I've been cheating on y'all!... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm so ticked! Friday, I wrote this absolutely fantastic short story...and when I say short, I mean SHORT for me...story on the mundanities of the life of a water beetle. We've got tons of 'em where I live, and I find them absolutely disgusting! It was a completely fictional piece of work, and one I... Sign in to see full entry.

My loyal subject cry for it, so it's back to the slave and grind of story writing! LOL...Not really...I'm having a blast! Actually, I'm really pleased that I've been able to keep up with this one as long as I have! I hope I make Uncle Ben proud of me. After all, I'm writing this for him with all my...

I've had a good supper, so I'm feeling slightly better than I did when I wrote that last post. Less stressed out and ticked off, anyway! Also, Becky called earlier...we always manage to make one another split each other's sides with laughter. God bless her! I'm going to google in a few minutes and... Sign in to see full entry.

Poor Roommie! Her nephew's birthday is Thursday, and of course we made time for her to go to her sister's house to be with him for a couple of days. She was supposed to leave tomorrow, but then on Monday Belle rang and said she'd rather have her come on Thursday to help with the party planning.... Sign in to see full entry.

Hi again gang... I just wanted to take a minute to apologise to a couple of fellow bloggers(I'm sure they know who they are)who've sent me emails. I haven't answered them obviously, and quite frankly I'm not sure when I'll get round to it. The reason for my non reply is that I'm having difficulty... Sign in to see full entry.

I feel so lazy today. I do want to write more, and indeed I will. But the sun is shining and I long to be outside. Unfortunately, it hasn't been very warm at all and I'm already stiff so I've had to stay indoors. At the moment, I need to go upstairs and change out of my pajamas! Thankfully, I don't...

Good morning everyone... I can't fathom this...is it Tuesday already??? I feel so out of place this morning! Maybe it's because I'm not fully awake yet. I'm sure I'll come round sooner or later. I've just realised that I need to hurry up and send out one or two things for the writer's competition!... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm going to post Ben's story from the beginning again gang...but only to give others a chance to read it who may not have yet. I know it's a bit long, so please forgive me and enjoy all the same!...

I keep thinking about that dream I had last night. I've been so twisted in knots that I haven't been able to concentrate on much of anything else today. I thought working on Ben's story would help me...but it didn't. I keep trying to make out the face, but I can't. Maybe he isn't meant to be... Sign in to see full entry.

Here's the next bit of Uncle Ben's story, gang...Enjoy! It’s well past the hour of midnight, but neither of them feels like sleeping. Hamish is sitting in Ben’s old office, flipping through photographs of his many travels. Ben finishes the washing up and slips on a pair of comfortable shoes. “I’m... Sign in to see full entry.

I had the strangest dream again! I hate dreams like this because I either end up remembering none of it, or all of it...and I usually end up crying. The tears came again just a few minutes ago. Please allow me to explain... In the dream, I was standing on a rooftop overlooking the most exquisite... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning gang... I hope everyone had a great weekend. Yesterday we didn't get much done since we slept in...didn't get to bed until after midnight on Saturday. When I got home I wasn't tired straight off, so we didn't go right to bed. Anyway, here I sit on this Monday morning pondering a few... Sign in to see full entry.

Hi gang... I hope you all had a fantastic Saturday! We had a fantastic time with Julie as always, but it ended far too soon. A. couldn't make it this time, but has promised to come next time. We'll see what comes of it! The food was delicious as always. But there's one waitress there who always... Sign in to see full entry.

Hi gang... Well, today's the day...our dinner date with Julie. And I can't wait for it! It's so long in between the times that we get to see her that we always look forward to it. And I know she does too. I'm still not sure if A. will be joining us or not. If he doesn't, it's his loss, not any of... Sign in to see full entry.

Wow, I can't believe its been eight hours since I last posted here. It took me FOREVER to get my shower in today, and since then I've had practically no energy whatsoever. Alas, this is why there have been no further story postings. I'll try to get a bit in before bed tonight. Our sunny day turned... Sign in to see full entry.
