Sporadic posting lately is caused by some health issues absorbing my attention. Nothing too serious, however, and I'll be back on track before you know it. These kinds of things keep us on our toes in life. Not to mention make us appreciate good health and to feel grateful for all that we have. The… Continue reading Checking In

Finding Peace Through Gratitude
Writing fiction has always been my passion. Mysteries, cozy mysteries, suspense, contemporary fiction, it doesn't matter. I love getting lost in the land of make believe, creating characters, settings, and stories, living vicariously through them. And when I read a story, it's all about being transported into the world of which I'm reading, feeling like… Continue reading Finding Peace Through Gratitude
Detour Home
A while back I mentioned my new online home, where I've also transferred my blog. That being said, I neglected to include a sign up/follow button on my new site. It took me a while to get around to doing that, but it's now done. I would absolutely love to have you visit me over… Continue reading Detour Home
Gratitude…for All and for One
Sometimes I get so caught up in being the best at something I lose my focus on what's really important. Of course, being the Type A that I am, I'm usually killing myself striving to be the best at everything. And it's here that I get into trouble. Striving to be my own personal best and striving to be… Continue reading Gratitude…for All and for One
Prioritizing Priorities
I've come to realize--again--that I'm not super-human and have conceded to the fact that I need to prioritize my life a bit. I'm confidant I'm not alone in that I tend to keep taking on more and more, often without realizing it, until life becomes a little bit of everything done somewhat well and nothing done well. There's… Continue reading Prioritizing Priorities
My Writing Process

“Z” is for…
Zoey and Zig Ziglar Yes, you read that correctly. My favorite "Z" word in the whole world is Zoey, my precious granddaughter. There is none so perfect as she. 🙂 Especially in her sassy little leopard print dress. And Zig Ziglar? I couldn't think of a better way to end this remarkable blog challenge than… Continue reading “Z” is for…
“X” is for…
X-tra ready for the challenge to be over...Okay, so that may be cheating a bit. But the truth is there all the same. 🙂 This challenge has been an amazing journey. It's taught me that even when I am sure I have nothing to say or my mind feels blocked from thinking of something interesting to… Continue reading “X” is for…
Calm Before the Storm
Since I was at the NCW Writers Conference--which was amazing, by the way--and using every molecule of brain power trying to absorb everything I could, I didn't post my last usual Gratitude Friday and Weekend Quote posts. But rest assured, tomorrow begins April and the A-Z Blogging Challenge, for 26 posts in 30 days. God… Continue reading Calm Before the Storm
Who’s Up For a Challenge?
The Blogging From A to Z Challenge, that is. Arlee Bird began this challenge, which entails participants to post something on his/her blog every day in April except Sundays. The fun gets even better - the topic for each day's post follows the letters of the alphabet, meaning there are 26 letters in the alphabet… Continue reading Who’s Up For a Challenge?
