Week 15: Slowdown
I scheduled my words week-by-week in January, when the outlook for this year was on a completely different spectrum…. Back then I was gearing up for a breakthrough year for myself. I have spent the last few years really working on myself, and when I scheduled this word I did it specifically because I knew … Continue reading Week 15: Slowdown
Week 14: Adventure
Well well well…… here we are late AGAIN! While I do have a legitimate excuse for spacing off my word this last week, I am still a bit upset that it's late. Last week I wrote my word all in one sitting; I spent the week thinking about it and just yammered it all out … Continue reading Week 14: Adventure
Week 13: Miracle
This week's word has been an interesting one to ponder our second week into the whole social distancing, no school, stay-at-home orders (who would have ever thought I would start a blog post with this… weird shit is going down right now!)..... It is the one thing our world needs right now….. A miracle. My … Continue reading Week 13: Miracle
Week 12: Admiration
Week twelve….. Seriously!!! I am one quarter of the way through my project, and I feel like its a good time to toot my own horn… or maybe have a little admiration for myself, for my dedication and follow through to get this far. Seriously, a year ago I wouldn't have made it through week … Continue reading Week 12: Admiration

Yes, my word this week is sunshine, it makes me so happy, and I love … Continue reading Week 11: Sunshine
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
Week 8: Silly
I am so excited about this week's word, my beautiful niece chose it and I am publishing it her birthday weekend. She will be 8 this year and her word fits her to a tee! She is one of the most silly kiddos I have ever known; she is always smiling and giggling…. I can … Continue reading Week 8: Silly
Optimism is my choice.
Since starting 52 words, I have barely written anything else. I have started a few posts but haven't finished them because since I started 52, I worry I won't complete it. My follow-through has not been the best the last several years so every-time I sit to write, I feel like it has to be … Continue reading Optimism is my choice.
