POD #11: The Farmer's Worldview I have a motto, "The only thing constant is change." Not that change is always easy, but endings are normal. That doesn't mean endings are not painful but they are usually necessary. Endings open the door for new beginnings. There is a commitment I know that I need to end - it is over... Continue Reading →
TPOD #7: Your Resistance Genome I read the prompt this morning, and decided I wasn't ready to conquer my resistance genome. I set my phone down, rolled over, put the blanket over my head and went back to sleep. Of course, the prompt was still there three hours later, and being a task oriented person... Continue Reading →
POD #6: Your Royal Highness: There was a time in my life that I thought I was the crowned queen of the world. It was a fantasy world that many of the members allowed me to fill. Yes, my world was small, but I believed that it revolved around me. When I became a mother,... Continue Reading →

The other group of people were yelling because the police were interfering. In the middle stood the police standing to protect those who are fighting against them and acting as a shield to...

Last month my husband bought me a new truck. Prior to getting it, I had only driven a truck twice, and have driven a small car for the past four years. It is definitely taking some getting use too in the driving department. One thing I have really enjoyed about this truck is the dashboard has... Continue Reading →
