Bugs worked out
With God’s help, I think I have all the bugs worked out. Allow me to explain. I have always been jealous of people who knew from the time they could express the concept, what they wanted to be when they grew up. A few years ago, I started a blog. What better way to shareContinue reading “Bugs worked out”
Where the wind blows
Flap, flap, flap, pushed and pulled like a flag on it’s pole. ~ Blow, blow, blow, around, down and back like a plastic bag you go. ~ Up, up, up, where is the feather carried on a breeze? ~ Down, down, down, roots planted by a seed in a far away ground. ~ Cover, cover,Continue reading “Where the wind blows”

Then, I read that the parent company of Redbox is filing for bankruptcy. Which just happens to be the same company that publishes the Chicken SoupContinue reading “God, Chico and Me”
Round things – some
Never good at sports. This is my story to report. Round balls. Textured balls. Big balls. Little balls. ‘Eye roll’ why? ~ Try the discus throw. You have upper body strength galore. A constant reminder of how I got that upper body strength, no thanks. What about track? Discus throw or nothing, thanks for theContinue reading “Round things – some”
