A misty beach When I reached the beach last Saturday morning, the tide was out, but the mist was in. Too chilly to photograph. This is what I painted on a previously misty morning.
It's hard to get life insurance if you're an Apollo astronaut! I found this online: I wondered whether it was true, so I did some searching. Apparently this was not just done by the Apollo 11 astronauts. Crew members from subsequent Apollo missions did this as well. Several days before their respective... (...)
A moment reflectionSometimes, I am sad that I don't have a significant other to share my life with. But then, I look at everything I have done all on my own without anyone. I own a home. I have what I need when I need it. I don't have to check with anyone else when I... (...)
Need some books.... I for whatever reason don't keep them, once they've been read. Rarely read one twice. That stack fourth one I've taken to this thrift store sells second hand stuff to support a hospice. Mose of their selection of books...were mine

Stressful morning already but a good stressSo we officially put in a offer on the house without a fireplace. Like I said other than that it is prefect for us. And the realtor thinks it might be set up for one they just covered it up because the last owner didn't want one. We are going in... (...)
Text from GrandmaI am so happy I'll be able to send more time with the kids this summer. It will be so fun. I cleaned up the toy room, got a lot of Joel's old toys out for them to play with. I got my vcr ready because I found a box of old Disney movies and... (...)
How different are you from your siblings?I have an older brother who is older by three years. We used to be close as kids but we took different paths as we got older. He went to college and works for a mortgage company. He's married with kids and has a nice house in a nice part of town with... (...)
Where do you think I’m from based on my accent? I’m really curious where I sound like I’m from I’ve had people tell me multiple different things. I do use several words interchangeably so if I say more than one option that’s why. I’d really appreciate y’all giving my video a listen and letting me... (...)
Para el olvido. Que ganas de que una de esas pociones mágicas para el olvido existieran de verdad. O una que reprima las emociones hasta no recordar el motivo que nos preocupa.
Romans 5:8-11, 2 Corinthians 2:14...... EDITED..... When I first became schizophrenic, I couldn't believe that I was actually hearing demonic voices telling me I had sold my soul! At first I could feel what felt like rain drops upon my skin, not knowing that it was really the blood of Christ washing... (...)
Guess I never gave much thoughtTo the weight of a glass of water. Take a sip.... it's physical load goes unnoticed Hold that glass full for an hour An your arm will feel its burden Grasp it all day long and your arm begins To ache.... Much like the problems we face in... (...)
Freedom of expression I sat down for the first time today and watched myself..i noticed the curv3s of my chest, the beautifully painted lips, the hair that always messes up into curls. I applied my makeup and pearls, and i faced this dsy with sassy moments. I stood up and... (...)
Family meetingEvery Sunday night before the boys go to bed we have a family meeting to talk about the following week. It's mostly for our daughter. She needs routine and schedule. She needs time to prepare for any changes in the week. She has a calendar that... (...)
It gets exhaustingTo post thoughts only to have people come and want to simply argue. I don't mind healthy debate, but good god. Life is more than black and white. It isn't either or. It is oftentimes both or all. Life is nuanced and it is so disappointing that people... (...)
Why is eating healthy so expensive??You would think you'd get a break, beings you're trying to stay away from doctors rather than be on all sorts of meds for chloresterol, high blood pressure, obesity, etc. But it's the exact opposite. For what I just spent on healthy foods, I could... (...)
"My love for you will never end." Psalm 100:5 The unwavering love and grace of God is a way of reminding the saved and unsaved alike, that God's love is steadfast, not conditional on our actions or even our feelings. God does not keep track of every wrong. He came to love and forgive, not to... (...)
Does anyone here remember Sodahead?It was a a social site for a while. Profiles had photo albums and a music library. One day they just cut off everyone’s access. They now provide polling technology.
~ I still keep checking on you.Not because I’m hoping for a reply, but because some part of me still wants to know if you’re okay, even from a distance. I scroll through your name, your updates, your photos, like maybe I’ll find a piece of you that still remembers me. I don’t... (...)
guess who's not getting burger king anymore?Today for lunch I decided to grab an impossible whopper and some fries for a treat. Fries were fine but the burger was not because there was hair in it. Not just like oops someone shed a hair that fell out there were many strands and it was under the... (...)
The guilt is still there even though it happened last year.The first crime was exploiting the knowledge that my mom is notorious for shutting her car door on her seatbelt which means it never really latches. She kept a crazy amount of change in her cupholders to the point it was beginning to overflow. I... (...)
Why no one likes meI'm 20 yo female, I honestly would say I'm like a 6.5/10 or sometimes a 7, but for some reason, no guy likes me, I had so many guys online who were interested in me but in real life? Never. Idk if I'm not approachable or what cause I do look mean,... (...)
A dilemma, homeless stuffI went for a walk this morning at the local swamp. There were garbage bags full of clothing in a heap near the entrance. Looked like maybe 5 or 6 bags of stuff. There was also a duffel bag sitting on top that looked newer. It was open so I looked... (...)
Do you laugh at yourself?Me searching for old movies- “A car named Desiree?” My husband- “you mean desire?” And then we both laugh and laugh at me until I have tears streaming down my face. Why am I so dumb sometimes
