Stream of Consciousness Sunday: Things I Can’t Say

March 25, 2012

Before you get your knickers in a twist, I know that there is a blog out there called Things I Can’t Say. It’s written by fellow Carolina girl, Shell (@shellthings) and I think she is an AMAZING writer. But her title was too good not to steal, or borrow, or imitate. It is the best [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: Is Your Heart Where You Live?

March 18, 2012

What a difference a week makes… Last Saturday, I wrote my stream of consciousness post in NYC at the airport still reeling from the fact that I was six rows away from Meryl Streep and Hillary Clinton. I was still in awe over the fact that I met Debra Winger and Ingrid Michaelson at a [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: Past My Prime?

March 11, 2012

What an amazing weekend. It was a whirlwind I’ll never forget and never want to forget but it sure gave me a lot of food for thought. Like you, when I have so much on my mind, sometimes I just need to spend five minutes and let it all pour out of my head. Today’s [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: Who is your Trust Agent?

March 4, 2012

Sometimes, I know exactly what I want to write. Sometimes, like today, my brain literally felt empty. Well, maybe not empty. More like dull. Nothing interesting to say. I started thinking about what’s been going on in the news and was reminded of the shootings in Ohio. And I thought that i was going to [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: The Season of Your Life

February 26, 2012

Some of you know I’m spending some time in Nashville at the BlissDom conference. I went with no expectations or preconceived notions. I actually attended with the same general naivete or oblivion that seems to have taken me this far in blogging. I sensed it might be a little touchy-feely for me, even though I’ve [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: Let’s Talk about Fate, Baby

February 19, 2012

I’ve got to admit that I had no less than 3 topics go through my head today for the writing prompt. What I ended up with is none of the three. I suppose that’s what happens when you finally clean yourself up and shove off to a party for a few hours. I come home [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: The Death of a Celebrity

February 12, 2012

I wasn’t feeling angry when I wrote this post but I can see how it might come off that way. I think I was just feeling a little bit of the unfairness in life. It’s something we can’t do anything about but sometimes it’s worth stopping and acknowledging. Today’s (Optional) Writing Prompt: Celebrities and drugs [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: Saying Goodbye to my Carpet

February 5, 2012

I love my house but I’ve needed new carpet for several years. It’s not that we don’t take care of the carpet. It’s that I’ve had many geriatric pets over the years who have had their share of “accidents.” So when we finally took the financial plunge to get the carpet replaced so we can [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: Take It Easy

January 29, 2012

I had a birthday party today. Well, I didn’t have a birthday party. My 5 year old little boy had a birthday party and I played hostess. I thought to myself, no problem. He wanted a bowling party and I was more than happy to oblige. A little bit of cash would save me a [...]

Stream of Consciousness Sunday: Charles Kuralt and Sunday Mornings

January 22, 2012

I often don’t think about the writing prompt I want to offer up until I sit down to write. But today’s prompt came to me while I was taking a bath. While I was soaking in our garden tub, my husband and son laid on the bed watching an old black and white movie with [...]
