That Feeling When…
You drive to work in a snow storm, work 12.5 hours, finally thaw your car out, and when you’re one street from home… Someone slides into your car. 🙄 What a way to end your 60 hour work week. 😄 Howdy, folks. Hope everyone is well. As I stated up top, this was my long…

100K All The Way
A bit behind the past few days due to multiple issues, but on the same day I made my 1,000th post I also got the following notification: I won’t bore you all and wax poetic for too long this time around, but I would be remiss if I did not extend a huge “thank you”…

For My 1000th Post
I would just like to take the opportunity to say… When I started this thing about 11 some odd months ago, I had no idea I’d still be doing it at this point in time. Quite frankly, I figured I would either get totally bored with it in very short order, or I would ditch…

Two Days Late
If this question had come up two days ago, my answer would have been much different. But after the events of yesterday, I am feeling a bit more jaded. Been doin’ a lot of thinkin’ Two days ago, my answer probably would have involved, at least to some degree, a few words about embracing creativity…

A Morning of Disappointment
I had logged into the platform this morning with the intention of getting caught up on comments, reading and maybe getting a post out there. What I got instead was a boatload of disappointment. I am sure several of you have seen Laura’s post by now and know that I had the unfortunate honor of…

Another In The W Column!
Hot on the heels of my 50K notification from WP, comes this little gem. Thank you, one and all! I am truly thrilled and honored that so many of you have enjoyed coming here and reading my special brand of silliness. I am very, very grateful for each and every one of you, and I…

Thirty Freaking Minutes
That is all I saw for 30 freaking minutes last night when I clicked on anything. And I was not having a problem with any other web pages at all. Just the same, I cleared everything, logged out and back in, etc. Nada. After about half an hour, I gave up and called it a…

Another blogger MIA
Reblogging Alice’s post, as I too, hope Renard is ok. While it is certainly possible he just said the heck with it and bailed, Renard seemed to be a very committed blogger who was in it for the long haul. If anyone knows, and/or can share, is he ok? I don’t know if anyone has…

A little Saturday rant
You know… Far be it from me to assume something would work correctly. So, I was replying to some comments, and I accidentally send one to the spam folder. Ok, fine. No biggie, I’ll just go retrieve it. Now, admittedly, I don’t check my spam folder often, but imagine my surprise when I found about…

Wandering Wednesday (02/21/24)
Happy Hump Day, everyone! We’ve once again reached the halfway point and it’s all downhill from here! I hope the week has treated everyone well thus far. It’s time for our weekly wander through the silly images in my head and, of course, through the WordPress Multiverse. Last week, I posted links to a few…

Andrea’s Story
Hi all, Some of you may already know Andrea, AKA: Skepticalvalentino. She is a children’s book illustrator who regularly posts extremely funny pics and sometimes asks for captions from her followers here on WP. Today, however, she posted a very personal story which touched me deeply, and also has a goal to help a friend,…

Follow The Leader (Prompt: 01/19/24)
As someone who has been a leader for the past 4-plus years, you’d think I would have a lot to say on this topic, but at the moment I really don’t. I think right now there’s just a part of me that’s cut that portion of my life loose and is happy not to think…

Let Me Count The Ways
I don’t think there’s any one example I could, or would, want to give for this prompt. I mean, really, love comes in so many forms that it’s hard for me to place value on any one example of love over the other. I’ve been lucky enough to be the recipient of love from my…

Happy 100!
Yesterday morning, I was very surprised to see that I had surpassed 100 follows here on WP! When I started this blog, I wasn’t really sure what I wanted it to be (one could probably argue that I still don’t 😄), other than I wanted to try and have a positive impact on people’s lives.…

Junk It All (Prompt: 01/16/24)
There are a ton of ways this can be interpreted. Physically, mentally, emotionally, etc. Funny thing is about two months ago, I went on a tear and threw a bunch of stuff out that had been hanging around forever. Finally got sick of it and tossed it. Ironically, about a week before I got fired…

I’ll Send An SOS To The World (Prompt: 01/13/24)
Now that my needless compulsion to sneak a song reference into most everything has been satisfied, I can move onto the question at hand. How do I communicate online? This one is actually going to be quick and easy. Outside of texting, this blog is pretty much it. When I was working, I was on…
