COMMUNICATION IS WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT! (Book) https://www.Writing.Com/main/profile.php/blog/sandywrite Today is August 6, 2026. I want to know where July went? I feel that time is moving faster. Is it possible? The way I look at it is, the seconds are moving faster. No, I can't prove it but I truly believe time is moving faster. How, maybe God is ready to send His beloved son back to us? No, I don't really feel that He would need to adjust the clock or its function, but for many of us, it seems time is slipping away much faster. When I was ...[Read Full Post] Thu, 06 Aug 2026 09:21:23 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1120707 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1120707 Aug. 3, 2026 I use to live in California. I was born there. Recently, I was watching a program about logging. The issue of maintaining the forests and the importance of it got me going. I think of the fires that occur each year and the losses people face. Yes, some fires cannot be prevented but maintaining the forests helps to cut down on the disasters that occur. It seems common since that if you keep the area of your property clean, you have a bett...[Read Full Post] Mon, 03 Aug 2026 13:03:01 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1120559 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1120559 Well, I got reinstated but with no real explanation or apology. These days it is the computer's fault. You would think that somewhere out in our big world that the computer just evolved on its own. It breaths, functions on its own, doesn't know how to say, "I am sorry that I shook your tree. But, in the event we don't get our money on time, we know how to chop your tree's limbs off." Enough said! ...[Read Full Post] Sun, 02 Aug 2026 06:51:37 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1120475 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1120475 Insurance Companies I am MAD! I received in the mail a letter from my home insurance company stating that my home insurance has lapsed. The date of the lapsed was July 17. I received the letter on July 24, a Friday afternoon. I immediately called the insurance company but it appeared all went home for the day. The letter itself was dated three days after the lapsed? Not at anytime did I received a phone call? I had no intention to allo...[Read Full Post] Sat, 25 Jul 2026 09:37:05 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1120026 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1120026 July 11, 2026 How do you all do so well in your daily blogging? I have tried to keep a schedule and it just never seems to work out. I marvel at those who can "stick to it". Maybe it is the desire that I lack. I want to but do I want to enough? It has been two months since I have blogged; embarrassing! I have several interest and I guess my writing is not at the very top of that list. At least, I am showing that it isn't by not keeping t...[Read Full Post] Sat, 11 Jul 2026 09:21:59 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1119288 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1119288 April 27, 2026 Termites - OMG! Today, I had the bug people spray for termites. We saw a small amount of debris that indicated termites, the swarming kind that somehow got into a front closet. I see visions of these creatures carrying away my house. Since only a small evidence was found, we decided to do a spot spray instead of the tent application that the first bug company wanted me to do ($1900). I can think of many more fun ways to spend $1900 dol...[Read Full Post] Mon, 27 Apr 2026 20:26:15 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1114520 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1114520 Prompt #F219: The Garden of Statues. A character realizes the statues in the park move only when no one is looking, and theyâre getting closer to the exit. It was a bright sunny Sunday morning and I decided to take a walk in my grandfather's garden. I drove over from my hometown, only about twenty minutes away and parked on the street. Grandfather created this garden in the late seventies. He had a thing about statues. He wanted them positioned in a ce...[Read Full Post] Sat, 25 Apr 2026 10:27:15 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1114292 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1114292 Prompt #54: Which of your five senses would you be most distraught to lose? If you had to pick one to lose, which would it be? Oh my, that is tough but I do know which one I would select that I must keep, my sight. I love nature and to think that I could not see the big Sequoia trees, or the ocean or my son's smile again, would be a killer for me. When I am in a grocery store, I just love to flirt with the babies moms bring in the stores. What a ...[Read Full Post] Wed, 15 Apr 2026 10:00:16 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1113455 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1113455 Prompt #213: The Gift of Time. If you were given an extra three hours every day that could only be used for leisure, how would you spend them? Easy, this one. I would split it between playing the piano, watercolors, writing and chess. These are my loves. I love music and listening and playing. I am not a master at the piano, but have taught myself several chords and can read the easy chord books. I try to play a little each day. I paint in w...[Read Full Post] Thu, 09 Apr 2026 20:25:38 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1112884 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1112884 Prompt #209: The Ghost of Your Potential. If you had followed the career path you dreamt of at age seven, what would your typical Tuesday look like right now? Digging! I wanted to be an Archaeologist. I have always been fascinated with old things, especially rocks, bones, shells and the history of it all. I came from a poor family and did not get any encouragement from my parents regarding college and how to get there. So, never came close on my o...[Read Full Post] Thu, 09 Apr 2026 09:42:27 EDT https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1112845 https://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/1112845
