100 Word Challenge: Lost

August 9, 2017August 15, 2017 ~ Tara R. ~ 6 Comments

I can’t fly, nor read minds. I can’t render myself invisible nor do I have extraordinary strength. I do, however; have a unique superpower. I can find all the lost things. If something is un-find-able, come to me. It can be a specific tool (menfolk territory), a book, or article of clothing that was never … Continue reading 100 Word Challenge: Lost

100 Word Challenge: Diary

August 2, 2017August 9, 2017 ~ Tara R. ~ 16 Comments

Been doing this bullet journal thing for about six months now, and am actually surprised I’ve kept up with it this long. I’ve tried journaling before and I was woefully inattentive to it, this just clicked with me. It’s gone through many variations, morphing from single page - single day, to a weekly double-page layout, … Continue reading 100 Word Challenge: Diary

100 Word Challenge: Water

July 26, 2017August 1, 2017 ~ Tara R. ~ 10 Comments

I’m not going to get very fancy for this week’s prompt. We sprung a major water leak over the weekend in a line that runs under our driveway. Finding a local contractor who can do the job has not been easy. Basically, we’ve been without running water since Saturday. A contractor was finally able to … Continue reading 100 Word Challenge: Water

100 Word Challenge: Sing

July 19, 2017November 22, 2017 ~ Tara R. ~ 6 Comments

A few days ago, the Mister was reading a Sports Illustrated piece about the Best Names of Recruiting Class 2017 (read: unusual to fantastical.) He got to Zacchaeus, and it triggered a childhood memory of a Sunday School song from long ago. A song that was a perennial favorite throughout my religious upbringing. A song … Continue reading 100 Word Challenge: Sing

100 Word Challenge: Common

July 12, 2017July 18, 2017 ~ Tara R. ~ 6 Comments

My husband and I are very different. Where he is pragmatic, I can be irascible. He is annoyingly stoic, I am perilously temperamental. He is a hopeless romantic, I can’t remember birthday or anniversary dates. I love seafood, he doesn't want to eat anything that swims in its own pee. I've started leaning politically toward … Continue reading 100 Word Challenge: Common

100 Word Challenge: Honey

July 5, 2017July 12, 2017 ~ Tara R. ~ 10 Comments

In March of this year, for the first time, a species of bumble bee was declared endangered by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The Rusty Patched Bumble Bee, once abundant in 28 U.S. states and two Canadian provinces, has seen its numbers drop nearly 90% since the 1990s and is now in danger of … Continue reading 100 Word Challenge: Honey
