Family History
I took a picture today and thought sometimes I look at myself and I can see my family history written in my DNA.

Want Ad – Wife Needed
I am trying to live a more minimalist life. I really deep in my heart want to live with less junk, less clutter, and less time needed to be spent cleaning the house. Why? you ask. Well, the number one reason is…. I hate cleaning house. It is such a waste of time. You do it and you just have to turn around the next day and do it again. No one notices unless you don’t do it. I could do so much if I didn’t have to spend time on managing my house. Doing the same stuff over and over again day after day. Isn’t that the definition…

What I Liked In April
I love photography and I am a big Instagram fan which gave me the idea to start a new monthly post with some of my favorite photos I have seen on Instagram during the month. I am going to try to keep it to 20 photos, give or take a few. If you are not already following me on Instagram you can follow me here. If you like any of the photos I have shared from my followers below make sure to show them some love by clicking on their photos and following them. Crazy skies as the storm rolled in during the WHS JV baseball game tonight.…

D is for Daybreak in Appalachia
The mist rises up from the river Clinging to the mountains like a quilt Velvety greens and blacks held together by threads of white The valley is waking Soon the day will begin The mist will evaporate into the rays of the sun The streets will fill with cars and commotion But for now there is a grace a serene stillness In the quiet of the early morning As the mist rises and the birds wake to greet the day.

Whatever, I feel like doing that day is ok, as long as I write something. There are prompts if I want to use them for each day but I am not required to use them. Today’s prompt is “Persnickety”. An interesting word that has been applied to me frequently in my life, along with stubborn, hardheaded, perfectionist, and the dreaded word anal. My proclivity to be persnickety has been a road block to…

Burn Out
Being the rock star, the darling, the golden child Shooting through the sky like a comet Everyone watches to see what you will do Everyone wants to hitch a ride. You’re a shooting star. Like a supernova you burn bright and white hot Everyone wants to know you, be near you, use you They all want a piece Grasping and clinging You burn out Like a supernova, you implode and all that is left is a black hole. No one notices you are gone No one cares There you sit abandoned and smoldering. A black hole pulling everything inward Letting nothing escape The anger builds The isolation descends You wait…
