The first thing that comes to mind when I hear the word vigilant is a wolf pack with a very watchful alpha or an old silverback looking after his troop ( I looked it up! It's really a troop…. I may have thought it was actually called a congress because of a meme I once … Continue reading Week 10: Vigilant

The Rocks on my Desk
I am beginning to understand what they mean when they say writing is a process…. I have to adjust everything around me and set myself a tone before I actually sit to write. I need to get my mind turning in a creative motion… I always find myself rearranging my rocks before I can start … Continue reading The Rocks on my Desk
Week 9: Resilient
To be resilient is to be flexible yet hearty, buoyant...adaptable. A resilient person is someone who tends to recover from or adjust to misfortune or change. I bet we all have someone who pops to mind, or maybe even a few come to mind. I know, for myself, a few people come to mind. As … Continue reading Week 9: Resilient

It is a tough word; it feels very brutal, actually. I don't relate to it, and it makes me wrinkle my nose honestly. It is … Continue reading Week 6: Conquer
Week 5: Dedicated

Week 4: Courage
So when I started this challenge I got a total of 52 words, then I started placing them on different weeks. Some of the dates will go with the word; some I tried to place to make myself stop and think…. I gotta say I thought this would be much easier than it is. It … Continue reading Week 4: Courage
Week 3 Creative
Week 3 CREATIVE Creativity is the word of the week- that was due last Monday….. But here I am this many days late! It is what it is, I got sick. Just a bump in the road- but it took me out for almost 2 full weeks. I kinda feel like things happen how they … Continue reading Week 3 Creative
