The Little Things

Spring! I saw the above cartoon on Facebook and had to share it. Even though the "official" first day of Spring was in March, it is actually starting to feel like it here in Michigan.

Tune Tuesday – Vieni Sul Mar

I wish I could speak Italian. I have always wanted to learn. I guess I always end up talking myself into believing that I can't learn it. The older I get, the less I can remember.

Back in Time?

All writers get writer's block. I am hardly a "writer", but sometimes stare at the blank page and wonder what to write about.
