WILL YOU BE MINE?

Before my eyes ever landed on yours, we had talked for hours on the phone. Remember the phones that actually had to be connected by a cord to the wall? The phones you couldn’t stray too far from so you ended up lying flat on your back on the hard floor because talking was more…

BLEED MYSELF INTO WORDS

I have written with Joshua Stewart several times and each time it has been quick and easy.  Sometimes writing styles and emotions just come together effortlessly. In fact, I think he is pretty much the male version of me. Today, I would like to give you guys a chance to get to know him a…

THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF MY YEAR ~2014

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2014 annual report for this blog. Here’s an excerpt: The concert hall at the Sydney Opera House holds 2,700 people. This blog was viewed about 56,000 times in 2014. If it were a concert at Sydney Opera House, it would take about 21 sold-out performances for that many…

BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE COOL – TWINDADDY

He has a proper name but I will forever call him Twindaddy.  We wrote our first duet together in March of 2013 when he had the blog stuphblog. Since then we have written many more and have gotten to be good friends along the way. Twindaddy (Scott) knows, better than most of us, what it…

NO ENDINGS ALLOWED

It’s been a little over 25 years since my husband and I became a couple.  I wrote this a year ago and it still holds as true today as it did then. I am NOT an endings kind of girl. Chances are if I ever loved you in any way then I still do; I…
