Hard Work Makes Me Sleepy

This morning I said that I would push myself to work on this manuscript. I've revised portions of it so many times that it's caused me to not go further into the manuscript than I normally would at this particular point in time. That irritates me, but my client is pleased and said she'd rather … Continue reading Hard Work Makes Me Sleepy

The World Really IS Full Of Idiots!

Author's Note: This does not pertain to the non-idiots of the world, of which the ratio seems to be smaller by the day.  Patience is not my strong suit. It's a fact, so I'm being clear about it.

Special songs have special meanings. We don’t even have to look to see who is calling, we … Continue reading Be Honest

Break, Not Broken

Break, Not Broken I came into this world intolerant of fake people, lies, and bullshit. This has only become more pronounced as I’ve gotten older. There are actual photos of me as a baby, newly home from the hospital, and the expression on my face is priceless. I know exactly what I was thinking in … Continue reading Break, Not Broken
