John Denver is Haunting Me...
Okay, don't shoot me, but I am not a John Denver fan. Once, in a high school, this stalker guy wrote out the lyrics of a John Denver song and left it in my car. Let's be clear, I wasn't a fan in the first place, but that pretty much ruined it for me. Now, as if I'm God's favorite punchline, my da...

New PBS Adaptation of "Les Miserables"
I can't think of a story I enjoy more than "Les Miserables." The only time I ever went to the movie on Christmas Day was when the new version came out in 2012. That was disappointing. Although I loved Eddie... Continue reading

I really haven't shopped for a long time. I probably need to totally rehash my wardrobe. I used to care about fashion, but somehow, that left me. LOL

"Old people are weird."
Last night was my company's annual Christmas party. For those of you who don't know, I work part-time for the apartment complex where I live. Every year, my bosses throw a fabulous Christmas party at the beach and we get to stay overnight in a luxurious room. We've been to the Ritz Carlton in Hal...

When life shifts... #AmWriting
Well, lovely readers, I am in the midst of a life shift. It seems I've been in this place for four or five years, but that's what happens when most of your kids are Irish twins (close in age.) And yes, I'm Irish so no cultural appropriation here. I say I have empty nest sadness, which ticks my da...
Itās kind of interesting to watch him go out on his own. It makes you appreciate how a lead singer is really only as strong as his band.

#BohemianRhapsody Again
It's no secret that I love music -- the 80's are my jam so naturally, I was excited to see "Bohemian Rhapsody" and I went to a prescreening on Halloween night. Loved it! I know it was a sanitized version of Freddie Mercury's life, but could we really handle the hard truths of such a legacy? Proba...
Haha they are amazing. Iām so sorry thatās happening there. Praying for safety.

Mom's Vikng Stove (chair is there to prevent Bob the Vacuum from getting stuck) This is my mom's stove. It's a piece of art and a pain in the bum to clean. It's also not working (the ovens) right before Thanksgiving. We are having twenty people for Thanksgiving. All of my kids, kids' friends,...

Thanks Shannon. I have to write my truth. I am legitimately not as sweet as my friends. Luckily, every friend group has that one person. š

Veronica, I think what doesn't resonate for many readers is the lack of humility in fiction. We're not perfect. We're not better than non-Christians (in fact, sometimes we have worse behavior) and I think it can be hard to relate to the lack of vulnerability. I was watching some stand-up this weekend, and I am SHOCKED at what comedians use for humor and yet, it's hilarious because it's true. I have to get back to that place where I'm not afraid to voice my truth.

I've heard this from several readers and it makes me sad. But maybe it's what God wants. Maybe we're supposed to get out of our easy chair and speak to the world. I could be wrong, and naturally, there is a place for what is being published there. It's just not my place. I'm not sure where I belong just yet, but I've got my walking papers, so it's onto what God has for me next.
