WAITING FOR THE FOG TO LIFT

Hi everyone... I haven't written anything since yesterday? Goodness! The dragon story will return soon. I just need to get the next bit sorted out in my head before I start writing it. Saturday, at the latest. I won't be able to write much tomorrow until the evening. Margaret and I have decided to... Sign in to see full entry.

A LOVING TRIBUTE

I'm still so sad. I'm still beyond stunned. I know he's gone, but I just can't fathom that the world no longer has Robin Williams in it. Still, I honestly believe that our loss is Heaven's gain. I went to amazon Monday night in the hopes of ordering the first season of MORK AND MINDY. To my sadness,... Sign in to see full entry.

MORE DRAGON REVEALED

You see, Queen Elisa was not only favored by her parents, she was also a dragon tamer. In time, even the most cold hearted dragon could give her their trust and learn to love her. As the princesses grew older, Morla became increasingly jealous of her younger sister. They were three years apart in... Sign in to see full entry.

IN TIME

Like so many of you, my dear friends, I am stunned and saddened beyond words by the sudden death of Robin Williams. He possessed such a beautifully loving and giving soul. The sun sank a bit yesterday afternoon. In a way, it will never shine in the same way or even as brightly as it did while he was... Sign in to see full entry.

DISNEY CALLING?

Thank you all so much for your kind words for our dragon story. I must say, I've been having loads of fun writing it. Thank you, lady kabu for posing the question, "What lives in your trees?" You set my wheels turning...LOL! I decided on a dragon rather than fairies for two reasons. First of all, my... Sign in to see full entry.

OUR TAIL CONTINUES

Many centuries ago, when dragon was still very young, (he was now four thousand years old!) he lived in a beautiful cloud forest with his mother and father and grandparents and great-grandparents. Yes, dragons have families, too! “It was such a happy time to be a dragon!” he said. “The little ones... Sign in to see full entry.

SCHOOL BELLS WILL SOON BE RINGING

Good morning everyone... Margaret has gone off to do a bit of shopping at Walmart, bless her. I wish I could have gone with her, as she's not feeling well. Neither of us got much sleep last night. I think it must have had something to do with the beautiful super moon. LOL! So, I'm on my own for a... Sign in to see full entry.

THE TEASE COMES TO AN END...FOR NOW!

A DRAGON! Ever since I was a little girl of about six or seven years old, I had always wished I could see a real dragon! Maybe even keep one as a pet. Remember, I told you at the beginning of our story, some dragons are nice, not mean. He was just about the biggest dragon you’d ever see. He was so... Sign in to see full entry.

DRAGONS TO COME, BUT FIRST A MESSAGE

Happy birthday, Derek! I hope you had an AWESOME day today! Whether you like it or not, you're still just a big old cuddly wuddly teddy bear! Love ya! Sign in to see full entry.

HANGING FROM A CLIFF????

LOL. I had to laugh at Grandmummy kabu's comment on my post of our dragon's tail last night! Indeed, I did leave you all hanging from the side of a cliff, but I assure you, it's for a very good reason! The story will continue soon, I promise! Sign in to see full entry.

FOR C C T, BECAUSE HE ASKED SO NICELY

Why should I scream, I thought? Surely, whatever the tree creature becomes, it can’t be THAT hideous or frightening, can it? But again, the tree creature implored me, pitifully. “I don’t like it when I hear screams,” it said. “screams remind me of the forest of the shrieking trees, you see. I don’t...

WHILE THE SUN IS SHINING

Hi everyone... I hope you're all having an awesome Saturday! It's a beautiful day here. My trees seem to be smiling at me today. Even the sun seems cheery. I love days like this. Sunny is nestled sleepily on the couch next to me as I write this. He's gotten so fat and lazy, and he's only just two... Sign in to see full entry.

PURE DRAGON DRUNGE

“Are you deaf? I said go away and leave me in peace! And never, EVER steal fruit from another tree in this forest so long as you live!” I know I shouldn’t have, but I couldn’t help laughing a bit nervously. “Just what’s so funny?” The tree’s voice grew angrier by the minute. I did my best to stop... Sign in to see full entry.

TOPSY TURVEY!

Holy cow! A couple of hours ago, something happened to me that hasn't happened for months now. I fell... Now, before anyone goes worrying, I'm fine. Nothing got hurt really except my pride. To be honest, I don't know how or why I fell in the first place! One moment I'm standing...next thing I know... Sign in to see full entry.

KINDNESS IS TRULY ITS OWN REWARD

My Grammy has a friend named Janette. Sadly, this lady's children have nothing to do with her. If they do speak to her, they are extremely abusive. Janette is mildly mentally challenged, but it does not affect her ability to live on her own or to care for herself. It angers and saddens me to know... Sign in to see full entry.

ON THE HARD DAYS

OUR DRAGON'S TAIL CONTINUES

The water was so delicious I couldn’t help drinking a bit more. As I was wiping my chin, I realised I was getting hungry. Maybe there are some fruit trees in this forest? I walked back in the direction of the purple-leaved trees, and surely enough, fruit trees were among them. One of the prettiest... Sign in to see full entry.

THANKFUL IT'S THURSDAY

Hi everyone... I hope you're all doing well and having a fantastic Thursday! It's a beautiful day here, but for some reason, my feet are cold! No big worry, I have socks on! I suspect it has something to do with the long term edema. That can really screw up a person's circulation! I've had bad... Sign in to see full entry.

STRANDS FULL OF LOVE

My youngest sister works in New York the mentally ill and the elderly. One of her clients is a lady who is in her late eighties or early nineties. She loves to crochet and knit! Sadly, because of her limited Social Security benefits, she's only able to afford one or two small skeins of yarn each... Sign in to see full entry.

THE FIRST SMALL STEP IN A NEW, LONG JOURNEY

Hi everyone... Please continue to pray for Sarah. She has been moved from ICU to a room, and this morning she let everyone know that she decided to look at her leg. She asked that the hospital chaplain be present, and I'm glad. This first small step was the hardest and I'm glad she wasn't alone when... Sign in to see full entry.
