Day 31 - March SOLSC Hooray! I have made it to the finish line.  31 straight days of writing!  So why is today the day where I've typed and deleted my post over and over?  I've sat here staring at my screen, starting to type and then quickly starting over.  Today's the day I get … Continue reading Crossing the Finish Line

Day 30 - March SOLSC Poetry Friday with a poem that comes directly from a memory that's etched in my heart. The Dance What a wonderful world Starts playing He looks at me And tilts his head towards the dance floor Not too long ago I would’ve said “No way” and ran off But I … Continue reading The Dance

Day 29 - March SOLSC Today is my last day of "Solo" Spring Break.  Tomorrow my daughter will be off from school and we'll have a great "girl" day.  Since it's my last day of just me, I thought I'd take some time and think about what I'm thankful for this week.  Having this time … Continue reading Thankful Thursday

Day 28 - March SOLSC An expected problem while on Spring Break - a clogged tub drain.  For the past week or so, we've noticed the water draining a little slower than usual.  While showering, the water tends to pool over the feet.  I kept telling the hubby about it (because obviously I can't handle … Continue reading Clogged Drain

Day 27 - March SOLSC This year, my Spring Break has been a little different than past years.  No, we aren't away on any exotic vacation or anything like that.  I actually have the week off and my daughter still has school.  Now, I've only been on vacation for the past 2 days, but I've … Continue reading Spring Break thoughts…

Day 26 - March SOLSC Today is a day to celebrate! It's my "little" bro's birthday. Although, he doesn't really enjoy his birthday all that much. They just aren't the same without our biggest celebrator - Our dad. But... lucky for Bubba, he has a niece who adores him, and thinks he's the best ever. … Continue reading Happy Birthday Bubba!

Day 25 - March SOLSC It's getting late.  Didn't think I'd make it tonight.  Every time I sat down to write, something pulled me away.  I remembered that I took this picture tonight, so here's a little poem.  It's in complete draft form.  I foresee some revisions in the future, but for tonight it's all … Continue reading Sunset over the Hudson

Day 24 - March SOLSC I've always battled with anxiety since I was a young girl.  Always a worrier.  Always an over thinker.  Always nervous.  As I got older, I guess I learned coping strategies and while I would worry or get nervous in different situations, I was able to work through them.  I was … Continue reading Taking Control of my Anxiety

Day 23 - March SOLSC Ode to Coffee Oh coffee, you make my mornings just so lovely, so complete. Your aroma fills my apartment with happiness and I just can't wait until you're done brewing. Oh coffee, that first sip just makes my heart skip a beat. You're so warm and delicious. With each sip … Continue reading Ode to Coffee
