It’s the end of April. I hope the weather has improved wherever you are. This week, the Tuesday Tales authors are writing to the word prompt SOON. I’m continuing with my romance/suspense, And Justice for All. Enjoy. “I’m afraid I probably won’t make it home tonight. I have an out-of-town case that can’t wait …Continue reading “Tuesday Tales: From the Word SOON”

April 28, 2025. Only three days left in this year’s challenge. I usually find the last three letters of the alphabet to be the most difficult ones to write about, especially when I’m limited by the theme I’ve chosen. This year, my musings have been all over the place, but these letters still seem shroudedContinue reading “2025 A to Z Challenge Blog for the Letter X”

Well, this is Day 3 post-op, the one they tell me is the hardest. I’m sore, but it’s a very different type of pain, completely different from what I had before, and while it hurts as any surgical incision does, it isn’t the bone deep ache that I had before the surgery. Of course, I’mContinue reading “Sunday Musings: Surgery Went Well”

April 26, 2025. We’re rapidly nearing the end of the month and the end of the alphabet. I’m assuming I survived Thursday’s surgery, and while I probably don’t feel great, the surgical pain will be different and of shorter duration than the arthritic pain has been. I’m curious to see if my knee will beContinue reading “2025 A to Z Challenge Blog From the Letter W”

April 25, 2025. Day 1 post-surgery. As I mentioned yesterday, these last seven posts have all been pre-written to allow me to finish the challenge this year. I’m sure I’m not the only one who has done this, but normally I would’ve written today’s post last night, instead of last week. The smell of coffeeContinue reading “2025 A to Z Challenge Blog From the Letter V”

Here we are again! Today is April 24, 2025. If everything has gone as planned it is also the day I get my new hip, so today’s blog and those that follow were written a few days ago. I know the spirit of the blog challenge is to actually write and post a blog itemContinue reading “2025 A to Z Blog Challenge for the Letter U”

April 23, 2025 Tomorrow is the big day. needless to say, I haven’t slept well the last couple of nights, hence the meme this morning. My posts are loaded to the site and ready to take you to the end of the month. I may pop in and change that, depending how I feel. We’llContinue reading “2025 A to Z Challenge Blog for the letter T”

April 22, 2025. There may be sun today, but it probably won’t be warm enough to sit outside. Sad news yesterday that Pope Francis died. It wasn’t unexpected since he had been gravely ill, but it is a blow to the millions of Roman Catholics around the world. Even a Presbyterian like myself can appreciateContinue reading “2025 A to Z Challenge Blog for the Letter S”

Good day! For those who celebrate, I hope you all had a lovely Easter. This week, the Tuesday Tales authors are writing to the word prompt, STUNNING. I’m continuing with my romance/suspense novel, And Justice for All. Enjoy! “Mona, it’s Harry Collins. Patch me through to Forensics in Ottawa.” “Yes, sir.” The polite, helpful voiceContinue reading “Tuesday Tales: From the Word STUNNING”

April 21, 2025. Good morning. It’s another cool rainy day, but we did get some sunshine if not heat yesterday for the holiday celebration. I’m in countdown mode for my surgery. My pre-op went well. The EKG verified that I have a heart and that it’s working well, I have blood, and the X-rays showedContinue reading “2025 A to Z Challenge Blog for the Letter R”
