I Am Still Alive

Just saying sorry. I know I haven't been around lately, which makes me like the worst host ever. Seriously, I didn't even know what this month's book was. I went to the library to get it and they wouldn't give me a card because I haven't got any mail yet with my name on it. So as soon as I get a card, I will read the book. Being unemployed gives me more free reading time.

50 Book Challenge

I just added some new books to the "Books" page on my blog. I have finished 37 books since the first of the year. I've never tried to keep track of what I read before. And I have ended up buying the same book more than once. It has been fun keeping a list, but I'm not sure I'll keep it up when the year and the challenge are ov… Continue

Rate myself as a lover?

For all my adult life I've heard both men and women boast of their superior, mind-blowing, unsurpassed abilities. But what about the bell curve? We can't all be the best. Someone has to be average. After all, doesn't average mean no better or worse than most other folks? No one has ever said to me, "Know what? I'm an inept lover. I can't beat my way out of a wet paper sack, much less find the bedroom." Instead, those who say anything at all will tell you they're the best you'll ever find. Except… Continue

Why I'm glad I'm not a housewife...

Don't get me wrong... I admire a woman who can spend all day keeping the home fires burning. At eighteen, I found myself married, living literally in the middle of nowhere. Maljamar, New Mexico is still in the middle of nowhere. Imagine my shock when June first arrived and there was no summer vacation! Every day was just like all the others. Two years later, when Edward was born, I wondered what I used to do with my time. My day revolved around taking care of him. Thomas was born two years later… Continue

Do I remember how to blog?

It's been awhile, but maybe I'll give this another try. I used to blog all the time right after my mom died. Made a good friend, too. Gotta chat with him again soon. Well, here goes some randomness... I love reading. And it all started with ABC. My mother tried to teach me my alphabet as she had two of my older siblings, to no avail. I started kindergarten knowing M and W, but not necessarily which was which. Entering first grade, I still hadn't learned them. My family thought I was slow, but o… Continue
