This was written almost a month apart. Our prayer group does Thankful Thursday’s; this was 2 of mine. “Your Disability” I’ve never considered myself disabled. Yeah, those doctor reports come. But I do. And keep on doing. It must be done. About 10 years ago or so, I was diagnosed with tinnitus (ringing in theContinue reading “Your Disability”

You’re Fired
August 25th, 2015; where were you? This isn’t as thought provoking as asking ‘where we’re you when the Challenger exploded? Or where we you when JFK was shot? Where were you when the World Trade Center was hit?’ 8-25-2015 was a life changing day for me. I got fired. First time ever. It hurt myContinue reading “You’re Fired”

More powerful than a volcano, for it will erupt. Prisoner of the dark, bound by fire, loathing in ashes, black as coal. No force on earth canContinue reading “An Emotion”
90, 30

Flying Objects 100 words
Do you have a “side hustle”? I’m painting a 60’ X 12’ deck. My surroundings are tranquil. Once this scene was interrupted when a mixed herd ran down the hill toward a pond. I’m on a ladder; paint brush and can in either hand. Imagine my horror as thoughts of these critters racing through myContinue reading “Flying Objects 100 words”
