Once A Complainer…Always a Complainer… It’s simply in their nature to complain about everything. Even when that person clearly has things to be thankful for…they will find something negative, turn it around and….you got it…complain about it. It’s almost like they carry a chip on their shoulders…..ready to hand out complaints. I’ve come across so many people on a day-to-day basis that I will ask, “How are you?” Well, that was a completely loaded question, because instead of hearing a …
Who Would Have Thought? Ever since I was a young girl, I have always had the “itch” to write. Several months ago, I came across a box filled with a few short children’s stories, poems, and greeting cards that I had written many years ago. I read through everything and in doing so, it rekindled the fire in me to get back on the writing wagon. When To Start So my blogging journey began. But, to be exact…on Mar 10, …
CUPCAKES!!!!!! Be Still My Heart!! I have a guilty pleasure and that is definitely cupcakes! I don’t really know what it is about them, but they are absolutely the greatest weakness of mine!! My downfall is that when I’m watching the Food Network Channel and the cupcake competitions are on….this is when I crave them the most! I’m not really a big “sweet” eater, but it’s hard for me to pass up a cupcake! It’s kind of funny because I’m …

Did you know that July 4, 1776, was not the day that the Continental Congress decided to declare Independence? That happened on July 2, 1776. Also, it wasn’t the day that Thomas Jefferson wrote the first draft of The Declaration of Independence. That was June 1776, and it wasn’t the date it was signed. That was August 2, 1776. Do …

There simply are no words. Nothing can really be said that can lift the pain that cuts to the core of your very being. It’s a pain that is never expected, can never really be prepared for and never want. But it is a part of life, and it happens every day……… It is the end of a life……..the loss of a loved one, a friend, parent, child and even a pet. Healing grief….how does one really do that. Well, …
There’s an old Rockabilly Classic that was recorded on March 28, 1958, and released July 21, 1958, by artist Eddie Cochran. Later recorded and released by Country Star, Alan Jackson in 1994. The title is “Summertime Blues”, but the catchphrase……”There Ain’t No Cure For The Summertime Blues” is what most folks remember. It’s a great song…..right up my musical alley. However, there really is a cure for the “Summertime Blues.” It’s ALL about you and your imagination! For those that …
