been a while since I’ve written a personal blog post and I thought I might try
to get back into it again. The trouble I have is coming up with interesting
topics to write about.
asked me the other day what a few of my favorite things were.
Favorite Things
You
might think, “Well, duh! That goes without saying.” And you’d be right. Truly, I
love spending time with the Cowboy and two Spawn. They keep me in stitches and
on my toes.
Zoe
little dog, she’s a Rat Terrier, has brought me more hours of joy than a weekend of Comedy Central. Her two
favorite words: Kill and Squirrel. ‘Nuff said.
A Beach
about the crash of waves, warm sand and sun, a beach chair and the smell of
Coppertone brings a smile to my face and relaxation to my mood. I grew up
across the street from the surf and after my family moved into town, I spent every
free summer day back at the beach tanning my hide.
Horses
When
combined with One and Three, number Four is a damn fine time! On my tenth
Christmas, my parents surprised me with a horse. Although, it wasn’t a
surprise, really. I’d asked for a horse EVERY DAY since I’d turned
five-years-old. Other than my time in college, I’ve always had a horse since.
Writing
I
started journaling when I was young, writing my feelings down about a boy I liked
or how awful I thought my mother treated me. The usual young girl thoughts. Those
early days of literary noodling led to a love of writing, which grew into what
I have today. The escape I find in creating stories and characters is the same
as what I find when reading a good book!
If
you could pick a few of your favorite items to share, what would they be?
