Blog of a Momerath (Book) http://www.Writing.Com/main/books.php/item_id/1590966-Blog-of-a-Momerath I bought an iPhone back towards the end of October and I really love using it. Apps are quite nifty, you know! And I really enjoy having Facetime with my husband when he's on the boat. It's a wonderfully useful device! Much better than my old Samsung flip phone. However........ The woman who had my cell number before I did failed to notify ...[Read Full Post] Sat, 07 Jan 2012 19:34:59 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/743603 Sometimes I feel like an old dog learning new tricks. Quite an old phrase, but it's apt in my situation. For many years my ex-husband treated me like I was an idiot. And he was truly into playing mind games with me. Somehow it was always my fault he drank and stayed away. It was my fault he had affairs. I was the one who was crazy, according to him. He was the real victim. ...[Read Full Post] Tue, 13 Dec 2011 01:40:24 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/741676 I am truly blessed to have such a wonderful husband. He means the world to me. And I can't wait for him to come home next week. "Where is he?" I can hear y'all asking. He works as a cook on a quarters barge. And that means he has to be on that barge for 4 weeks (or longer sometimes) at a time. He does get to come home for two weeks, usually. I got luck...[Read Full Post] Tue, 06 Dec 2011 00:34:27 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/741161 I don't really wear a Miracle Ear. But I'll be the first to admit my hearing isn't what it used to be. When I was married to Robbie, he used to get really annoyed when I misheard anything he said. He would accuse me of being a smartass. Of making fun of the way he talked. I just didn't always understand what he was trying to say. Thankfully my husband Scott sees my quirk a bit differently. T...[Read Full Post] Wed, 30 Nov 2011 20:44:13 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/740769 I was going to start the whole "it's been way too long since my last post" thing, but I thought that's been overdone elsewhere (and even in my own blogs). So yeah, I'm back. Where to begin? Hmm.... I received a friend request back in mid-August on Facebook. It was from my childhood sweetheart Scott, whom I haven't had contact with since we were 14 (when I ...[Read Full Post] Tue, 29 Nov 2011 15:38:32 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/740682 I've only just realized it's been June since my last post! My word, I've been busy. We went to Missouri for our annual holiday. Stayed a few days in St. Louis, doing all the touristy stuff. We visited the Arch and went up to its top. Explored the St. Louis Transportation Museum (it made my little steampunk heart go all pitty-pat!) and took tons of p...[Read Full Post] Tue, 24 Aug 2010 19:29:51 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/704564 I'm having a mermaid summer. Dreams of salty waves and powder soft beaches have commanding center stage in my mind lately. Even though I'm not planning a seaside vacation this year, my brain has been flooded with images of mermaids. So I've decided to go with it and create artwork based on this maritime madness. Several ideas for art journal pages, ...[Read Full Post] Tue, 29 Jun 2010 18:51:18 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/700410 It seems we've shifted from winter directly into summer here in Arkansas. The weather has been in the 80s for the past couple of weeks. And all the oak trees are in full bloom. That can only mean one thing. Allergy season is upon us. It never bothered me as a child. I was in my twenties before I ever noticed I had an allergy to pollen in the ...[Read Full Post] Tue, 06 Apr 2010 20:21:04 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/692468 I'm beginning to wonder if the Powers-That-Be at my job are trying to eliminate clinic clerks all together. There's just me in Geriatrics, one lady in Primary Care and maybe two or three clerks in the Appointment Center. And they're refusing to hire on any more. Makes me really think. I'd like to know what they plan on doing once all t...[Read Full Post] Thu, 18 Mar 2010 18:39:34 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/690647 I try not to think about the logic behind my employer's motives. It makes my head ache. And even if I did find out why, it wouldn't improve my situation. Back in August, the powers-that-be took away my co-worker. They're still using her for the so-called "pilot program" that they are working on. And I've been the sole clerk in ...[Read Full Post] Tue, 02 Mar 2010 18:48:40 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/689144
