100 Word Challenge: Quiet

blue sky and white cumulus clouds
August 31, 2016July 1, 2017 ~ Tara R. ~ 9 Comments

When I go on my photo walks, I sometimes miss the best photos because I’m simply sitting and watching, feeling, breathing in the incredible beauty that surrounds me. For most of these trips, I am alone… and I don’t just mean that I don’t bring one of my peeps or a friend with me, but … Continue reading 100 Word Challenge: Quiet

100 Word Challenge: Secret

August 24, 2016July 1, 2017 ~ Tara R. ~ 6 Comments

Putting my yarn organizing project to good use, I began a scarf I hope to finish in time for my mom for Christmas. Knowing how badly I procrastinate sometimes, she will be lucky to get it for Mother's Day... 2018. Since I'm showing and telling here, it will be a good chance to test if … Continue reading 100 Word Challenge: Secret

100 Word Challenge: Run-on sentence

August 17, 2016July 1, 2017 ~ Tara R. ~ 27 Comments

I’m six hours late posting this week’s prompt and I’m still trying to figure out what word to give you all. So, let’s have a little fun this time. When I was in high school, I was a bit of an English geek. I had a group of friends who would diagram sentences for fun. We … Continue reading 100 Word Challenge: Run-on sentence

100 Word Challenge: Demon

August 10, 2016July 1, 2017 ~ Tara R. ~ 8 Comments

Recently I purchased a Tibetan Spinning Meditation Ring. I have my doubts that it is actually from Tibet (it shipped from Port Charlotte, FL) and doubts on whether having it will mystically make meditation meaningful for me (I can’t seem to make my brain shut down long enough to think about ‘nothing’) but it’s a very … Continue reading 100 Word Challenge: Demon

100 Word Challenge: Letter

rusty round metal mailbox
August 3, 2016July 1, 2017 ~ Tara R. ~ 12 Comments

I have all these lofty plans to write letters, or send cards on special occasions or phone for no other reason than to hear the voice of the person on the other end of the call. But, I don’t. There is guilt. No excuses are given, no pattern of behavior altered. I’m simply a neglectful … Continue reading 100 Word Challenge: Letter

100 Word Challenge: Emotion

four kittens
July 27, 2016July 1, 2017 ~ Tara R. ~ 13 Comments

It’s been almost two weeks since my family took in five newborn kittens and their mother. The three-week old kittens are getting bottle feedings every four hours, routine sink baths (kittens are a very messy lot), and cleaned of eye boogers semi-daily. I am inundated with the smell of pee and poop, being peed and pooped on, … Continue reading 100 Word Challenge: Emotion
