266 Days
I have been off social media for 266 days. That is 266 days of no mindless scrolling. There are three exceptions to my social media fast. When someone says “Hey did you see I posted…?” I have gone to look at particular posts. Almost all of them from my family with a few, very few…

Morning? Night? Neither.
Morning or night? It depends on what it is I have to do at the time. If it is to spend time with my husband, I am an anytime person. If I have to go to work and I really do like my job, I am a morning person. If it is a lunch date…

Grudge? Well….
Are you holding a grudge? About? I can hold grudges. I try not to hold on to negative things, but sometimes I catch myself complaining about past hurts. I say to myself, “Wait a minute, maybe I didn’t actually let that one go.” To hold a grudge is to be human. To forgive is divine.…

Home
Share a story about the furthest you’ve ever traveled from home. My first thought is home is in Florida. I’ve been to England, so for distance that’s the furthest. I was six. My grandfather kept telling me, “When you get to London you will have tea with the Queen.” I believed him. The first time…

Honey, Child let me tell ya….

Do I Enjoy Writing?
What do you enjoy most about writing? I’m not so sure that I enjoy writing. It’s something I am compelled to do. When I don’t write I get irritable. It’s like a compulsion. I would relate writing to eating. I can skip a meal, but can’t go long without food. Writing is like that for…

The Color of Water
What do you love about where you live? I love that I can be anywhere I need to be in five or ten minutes. Even this is a short drive away. I love it here. To be here is home. Light & Love, Lori

Depends on the Goal
How do you plan your goals? I have always been a fly by the seat of my pants sort of human in my personal life. I spend a lot of time in my day job and career working toward goals and targets, so in my home life I prefer spontaneity. My life is very much…

Seriously , Bruh
What is a word you feel that too many people use? I cringe every time I hear “Seriously!” It is so over used. While I’m complaining, let me add that “Bruh” is a sound not a word. Stop saying it. What happened to elegant conversation with meaningful words? One of the many degradations of society…
