My Life as a Writer. Wednesday, April 15, 2009. Never count anyone out. This is an awesome clip. The embedding has been disabled so you'll have to jump over to youtube, and search "Susan Boyle" to watch it, but if Susan Boyle can be a singer, I can be a writer! Good for her- and me. Thursday, April 9, 2009. What, do you think, is the common denominator between artists? What is the one thing that links us all together into one solitary whole being? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Flowing Brooks: May 2010
http://flowingbrooks.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Thoughts on Life and Living. Sunday, May 9, 2010. My children have tried to appreciate me today by not arguing or complaining. It has been awesome. I have loved the tranquility. The few spats have quickly diffused. All four of them have done precious and wonderful things on their own for me. However, on Mother's Day especially, I think of anot. Her mother. My daughter Daisy is from China. She was adopted when she was 18 months old. I wonder what her birth mother thinks? Wednesday, May 5, 2010. I've had l...

My Life as a Writer: Snipets from my Composition Books
http://seizethewords.blogspot.com/2011/09/snipets-from-my-composition-books.html
My Life as a Writer. Friday, September 9, 2011. Snipets from my Composition Books. I wonder what will come of these old things. Bits of stories started and never finished; freewrites; little snippets of my life. Will my children throw out the boxes of composition books when I am dead? Will they read them? Am I okay with that? You could almost call them journals but the writings are in no linear order. They're fractured, disjointed, sometimes incoherent.perfect. Thoughts on the birth of my brother, Robert.

My Life as a Writer: A Prayer to Matter
http://seizethewords.blogspot.com/2013/09/a-prayer-to-matter.html
My Life as a Writer. Monday, September 9, 2013. A Prayer to Matter. A prayer to Matter. Today help me to matter. Not to just BE matter, aimlessly taking up room on this earth, but to actually make a difference. Help me to matter in the way that brings people to you. Grant me the blessing of remembrance that I may keep in my mind this fact:. The only thing that means anything at all is Love. When the baby cries, let me hold him and kiss him a hundred times. Then I will be a mother and wife who matters.

Random thoughts and stories by a frustrated writer who is hoping this will get her creative juices flowing! Saturday, November 8, 2014. A time for memories. My brother and his teenage daughters came to visit for the weekend. Because I live so close to Washington, DC he wanted to head up there and see the sites with his girls. A day of sunny blue skies and crisp fall air lead the way for our travels. November 9, 2014 at 4:10 PM. Sad but beautiful contrast between the two memorials. My Blog usually is a pl...

Finding Joy in Simple Things. Wednesday, May 14, 2014. PWS Awareness Day 14: Enough is Never Enough. Some describe people with PWS as being always hungry. But Oscar and many others are actually better described as never full. I let him get out of bed before official wake up time. The one time. He had screen time before he was done with his homework. These breaches often end in meltdowns when denied the next time. The reason that the distinction between always hungry. No one is tempted to give Oscar more ...
