Flying Objects

Every now and then I repost something from when I first started my blog to share. This was first posted Sept. 24, 2022.

“You were right in your assumption,” she spoke louder so he could hear her. “Never?” “No.” “I envy you.” He drew a sharp breath as the cold water caressed his face. “You know nothing about my personal life, don’t envy me.” “You have freedom.” He reached out and touchedContinue reading “Coreopsis 6-e”

My last weight loss journey: here we go again

Growing up, my dad suffered with horrible acid reflux. He called it the ‘strong neck’ or ‘sour neck’. The 2 were interchangeable. Many years ago I went to the doctor and had a barium swallow performed. I was in my early 30’s? Scared and stupid. Had to drink this chalky white stuff, got strapped to aContinue reading “My last weight loss journey: here we go again”

Cottage Cheese Fudge?

Am I kidding? No. And this is really good. My only complaint is that I couldn’t get the cottage cheese creamy enough. My fudge was a little lumpy. 1 bag of chocolate chips, melted. I melted mine double boiler style. You can melt them in a microwave; just make sure not to cook them. 1Continue reading “Cottage Cheese Fudge?”

Big black dog, nipping at my heals. I know you. You chase me. Bite me. Catch me. Smother me. Your weight is more than I can bare. We fight. Wrestle. I run. You chase. I hide. You sniff me out.

When he didn’t answer, she looked up. He was breathing heavily, “Orion?” “Nothing,” he thought for a moment. “What colorContinue reading “Coreopsis 6-d”

Pour art 2

I did another pour art project and I hated it.

Coreopsis 6-c

Sarah studied Orion’s face as he stared at his glass of wine. He didn’t look happy at all. There were no little laugh lines around his mouth or eyes. The flesh around his eyes looked dark and sunk in. He reminded her of a sack of bones. Every time he moved it seemed toContinue reading “Coreopsis 6-c”

Pour art 1

As I was scrolling through YouTube, I came across a video of someone doing a pour painting. As I watched; the thought filled my head, “I can do that.”

Lost Past; A Star Trek Story

Paramount Global owns the Star Trek franchise. This is a piece of fan fiction based on Star Trek the Next Generation. Who’s dreaming now? Westerfield appeared to be sleeping soundly in his bed. He let out a moan. “No, no.” His dream was more intense than any dream he had ever had. VoicesContinue reading “Lost Past; A Star Trek Story”
