Writing Prompt: Do You Believe In Karma
I don't really have much to blog about right now. I'm off babysitting duty for a few days, and getting ready to work on a few assignments. I -may- be running out tonight, and AHS Hotel is on. Business as usual lol. I decided to do a writing prompt instead
Life After The Bursting Bubble…
(I meant to post this a while ago, but I was having issues with my browsers/laptop and had to reboot, and then I had to shut down. So it's all basically one big rambling mess. Sorry lol.)Yep, this is my life after Bubblews, and to be honest...it’s no
Why I Write Here at Persona Paper
It is not a secret that I love Persona Paper. I am not talking about a platform or features. Nor is it because they give me an opportunity to write or make a little bit of money doing so. Platforms and features are a dime-a-dozen. One can write, whethe
Can People just let People People be People People?
Strikes me these days, after what &DWDavisRSL posted about teachers spending time in meetings, that 'people people' are not being allowed to do what they do best any more. 'People people' enjoy the company of other humans. They enjoy helping them. Nur
Things Will Change
So, I'm going crazy in my current living situation. I love my family but it's not easy being here and seeing so clearly that I am the third wheel. So soon things will change. I don't know exactly how right now, but there are a few different options. 1) I
Late Night Rambling: Writing, People, Intention and Change, and the Choices We Make
On Writing I imagine that many who write or interact on the Internet maintain rather chaotic lives. Whether retired, unemployed, or working two jobs, each of us juggles so many things, and have this-or-that to fit in-between gaps and times. We
An Unexpected Offer
The last article I posted was about how I was considering moving to Colorado and I laid out both pros and cons for the move. Well, on Facebook I had posted in a couple local groups trying to sell some of my stuff, stating that I wanted to move out of stat
Vent City - The pitfalls of animal rescue
I really have to vent and it might become a ramble because I am so upset! If you read my last post (House Arrest Update) then you'll know I was planning on moving in with a friend. Well that will not be happening. AS A FAVOR TO THEM my friend asked
House Arrest Update
So, you may have noticed I haven't added to my "Day _ Of House Arrest" posts (today would be day 17 if anyone's wondering), and I want you to know it's not because I forgot about you! I just realized that my life is not THAT interesting, and those posts we
Day 5 of My House Arrest
Again, I failed to get on the treadmill today! -_- But in my defense it is a little difficult to do when the treadmill is in the living room, and you have 3 nephews (ages 1 - 7) and other family members hanging around! They are visiting Arizona from Cali f
Day 4 of my House Arrest
Oh my gosh it's only day 4!?!? Haha Well today as promised I got back on the treadmill! I did one mile in 18 minutes. I know that is slower than Day 2's run, but I had the treadmill on an incline of 3 instead of 0 like normal, so that does make it tougher
Day 3 of my House Arrest
It is 8:20pm, so my day is wrapping up, good time to sit down and write a post :) I have to start off by saying I was bad today! Today I did not get on the treadmill >.> I developed a bit of a stomach ache mid day, and I did not want to push it and
Things to Do When You're Stuck At Home
Hey guys! :) So I'm going to be having my eye surgery sometime in July. That means that I will be at home for 3 weeks. I won't be going out AT ALL, I will just be home for 3 weeks straight. I'll obviously get a lot of stuff done on the computer (maybe in
Florence Nightingale
May 12th is International Nurses Day. This day has been celebrated since 1965. The date was chosen because it is the B-Day (birthday) for Florence Nightingale, a pioneer in healthcare and health reform, and the mother of modern nursing.
If Only I Had Known
I went to primary #school with a diversity of #people who either were able to make something of their lives or had the connections to ensure they looked like they could. One of my classmates' sisters ended up being the #curator of a leading London museum.
Eye Surgery vs Down Payment
I've run into the same dilemma for the second time in my life. I have really bad eye sight, and I tried to get Lasik done at one point. Lasik would have cost me $1,000 tops. Too bad I was informed that my eye sight is so bad I do not qualify for Las
One Darn Thing After Another
You know Those #Days. Those days where nothing goes right for trying. Yup. Mr Chazer and I have - independently of the other - had one such each today. He is three colleagues down in his area. Two have leave. One has been required to spend time present
Thanks For The Mute Button, Twitter.
When you follow people you have known for years on Twitter, and they say things you're not thrilled with, it is not always easy to unfollow them. You don't want to unfollow someone you've known for a while just because of something you don't agree with, an
Selling Online
I have a lot of stuff I could be selling right now and I have tried listing them on multiple sites. First I tried selling on StoreEnvy. I really liked the idea of them because the site doesn't take a fee out of what you make (unlike Ebay and Amazon). But
Ask Me Anything
I believe this is one good thing to come out of Bubblews. This was a post first introduced there, and I think it'll be good to bring the tradition here to PersonalPaper. This is a great way for all of us to get to know each other better, maybe make
An 11 Year Old Kills a 2 Month Old Baby
I just came across this story on the computer, and it is extremely disturbing, to say the least. A woman left her 2 month old daughter with a friend she had known for 5-6 years so she could have a break. This is completely understandable in my book. Mothe
A Good Marriage by Stephen King
Apparently this story was published in Stephen King's collection "Full Dark, No Stars," which I did read but for some reason I have no recollection of this story. I honestly didn't enjoy any of the stories in that collection, I remember them being just too
I Don't Know YOU So STOP Asking to be My Facebook Friend
When I rejoined Facebook after deleting my account, I had changed a lot. I have become more reclusive than ever before. The only thing is I am active on several Facebook pages which could undoubtedly reap unsolicited messages to my other inb
Stay out of trouble
I'm not someone who enjoys being in trouble or to start trouble. I'm a peaceful loving creature who likes to enjoy chatting with friends and talk about just anything and everything under the sun. Recently, I noticed that no matter how I try to stay
Third Times The Charm!
It took me 3 batches, but I finally got it right!!! :) The batter for my first batch was too thin to make cookies, so I made doggy muffins instead. Silly me didn't refrigerate them, so they got moldy! I experimented with the second batch and they a
People can be so strange sometimes!
Reading &quickchai's post this morning, I realized that though we may live in different countries, some things are universal and one of those things is the relationship between daughter-in-law and her mum-in-law. No matter how long a girl has bee
5 Things On My Computer "Desk"
I just saw this challenge by &JeanC and am happy to join in! Now my computer "desk" right now is my kitchen island, I don't have an actual desk lol. So here is my list of 5 things currently on my kitchen island/computer desk. 1. My DSLR camera
I Don't Need Any More Friends
A lone woman is walking on a rainy day and on this day it is Christmas Eve. She doesn't notice that a motorist has noticed her for a quarter of a mile. Feeling bad for her, the motorist takes a chance and drives up past her and stops in an open
I Am Beyond Mad
I am so mad! As some of you know I co-direct an animal rescue. Well, I have been emailing a guy who was interested in one of our dogs for over a week - even assuring him that he had first chance at this dog. Today was supposed to be a meet and greet (the
Early Morning Thoughts
I usually think I'm one of the most fortunate people in Canada. I live in one of the most beautiful places that can be imagined, next to the Pacific ocean, in a lovely neighborhood of very friendly people. Our home is on one level, and very easy to look af
80 and 94 Years Old, Respectively
Today, January 6th, marks the 80th birthday for my dad. That's the big 8 and 0. Pretty impressive for a man who has never seen a doctor in this country unless it was an emergency. Dad comes from a full blooded heritage line of Spaniard
No world for poor animals
In many poor and under developed countries, there is very little awareness about the importance of #wildlife conservation and saving the eco-system. Wildlife is not considered a precious national asset and is often seen as a means of earning a quick #profi
Loving People
I love people. There are no exceptions to this rule. Regardless of what people may say about someone, I'm still willing to get to know them with an open arms and open heart, then draw my own conclusions. We meet beautiful people everyday. Sweet, rude, kin
Deliver Me From Used Car Salesmen
It was time to purchase a new-to-me car that would be a used car, or pre-owned vehicle, as the lingo goes these days. I did my homework, checked out the used car inventory of several dealerships, read the CarFax on the autos in which I had an interest an

How Loud Is Loud
How loud is loud? Or, how loud is enough? Just asking this because I was wondering how sensitive the human ears are. There's a group of youngsters whose hangout is just below the building unit where I currently live. We are at the third f
POVERTY BY CHANCE OR BY CHOICE?
I hear of people being poor and not having anything to eat, not even a place to call a home. I hear others say poverty is disease but how. Another section of society believes that poverty is a curse. Others even believe poverty is by choice. I am confused
Nothing Has Changed
I got special appointment today with my former boss regarding a new job orders he received. Since, I will be out of the city for almost a month starting next week, I accepted the task. It's just preparation of documents for registration and accredita
