100 Word Challenge: Speak

May 29, 2019July 4, 2019 ~ Tara R. ~ 1 Comment

I’ve been on a tear recently with this reading thing. Up to book 11 since the beginning of May and will most likely finish numbers 12 and 13 by the end of this week. I’m kind of digging “No TV” during the day, too. Right now, I am on book nine of a 16 book … Continue reading 100 Word Challenge: Speak

100 Word Challenge: Boxes

I may have to change days for this prompt. Too much crazy stuff keeps happening around here on Wednesdays. THIS WEEK… my millennial son moved back home and apparently all the crap he had when he initially left has exponentially multiplied in the three months he’s been away. My house is about to burst at … Continue reading 100 Word Challenge: Boxes

Mister worked on purging the wanker Tuesday and we thought it was good to go. Wednesday morning I open my laptop and that virulent rat bastard was still there, mocking me. The laptop wasn’t … Continue reading 100 Word Challenge: Holy

100 Word Challenge: Interrupted

May 1, 2019 ~ Tara R. ~ 2 Comments

Until I was so rudely interrupted last week, along with my congratulatory accolades to the previous week's submitters, I had intended to report on how my Lenten closet purge went… you know the one, remove one thing each day and donate the pile at the end of 40 days. It was remarkably easy, even though … Continue reading 100 Word Challenge: Interrupted

100 Word Challenge: Guilt

April 24, 2019 ~ Tara R. ~ 6 Comments

I had this whole post planned. I was going to congratulate all last week’s participants and say how great their submissions were, especially since I stifled them with the prohibition of using the letter D. They all wrote seamlessly. If you didn’t know they couldn't use that letter, you would not have missed it. Then… something happened … Continue reading 100 Word Challenge: Guilt
