Swag Monday!

It may have been quite a rainy day for me, but I had a special reason to get out today: to pick up some snail mail gifts sent to me! Yeah, baby …I —heart— presents!! A little while ago, I joined PairUp! to help fight against kidney disease, and in return, the American Kidney Fund [...]

for the love of delicious fruit!

Going through the dashboard for my blog this week led me to discover some neat factoids. It had me so excited that I started taking screenshots to keep and show the moments. First superimposed 2 happenings into a single screenshot for double the fun. I found out I have 153 followers (good for my little [...]

Versus – twiharding my hunger

In this episode of Versus, we compare Twilight and The Hunger Games series. Yeah, I know, no contest some say….let’s do it, anyway. Twilight (Vs.) The Hunger Games 1. Fluff writing (dreamy stuff, in Bella’s head a good portion of the time); simplicity that allows one to finish the very long books quickly, depending on [...]

The PearLady presents her weekend report

In the spirit of Zazu from The Lion King [cue music: “The Morning Report” from the above movie title] What I accomplished this week: I found another great site, namely the Christian Bookshelf Reviews, which led me to even more book challenges (God help me – LOL). It also led me to post here again [...]

A birthday on the world wide web

My blogging friend Jenny has a birthday today She’s hocking silly stuff in her shop, hooray She cusses on her blog and people comment back with praise What in Heaven is this world coming to these days?! I’m not really upset at the sentence above, I tease and I write purely with sisterly love. ~~ [...]

What the heck were they thinking?

“Where the heck have I been lately?” you my wonder. In addition to the usual stuff (reading, eating, working, exercising), I’ve been doing a daily challenge to help my well-being. Today, it’s about doing something creative. My creative mojo has come often when I’m not near a computer (to blog or draw it), or when [...]

All about young love

Young love–what an enticing suggestion. Although, sometimes I wish for any love at all, even if is just from my dog. Other times…well, we won’t go there, for as a blog friend once reminded me, if you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all. (unless you’re like our mutual blog friend, Jenny…hehe) So, [...]

Starting another writing exercise – 1 word

I haven’t abandoned anything yet, but I think I may be having a lazy moment. Good thing is my creativity is coming back again. Bad thing is it’s not connecting to other parts…yet. Anyone have some mental glue to make this process faster? IDK either. In the meantime, at NaBloPo, this month’s theme is “in [...]

Weekly 100 Words – Accentuate the Positive

It’s no secret that I work out…although, I’m unsure if the results are real imagined as of yet.  Anyway, one of my new passions is for Zumba, the Latin-style exercise/dance. So, that’s our focus this week. It’s time for another addition of Weekly 100 Words! ~*~*~ Weekly 100 Words   As before, this blog-hopping meme [...]

Weekly 100 Words – Oh my, Christian Porn

Yes….I’ve found a good one this week to show you. He-he. First, let me preface this entry by saying I’ve enjoyed reading this author’s works many times, and particularly like how much faith her characters seem to have. With that said, I’m amazed to find this “gem”—a real play on words. Sexual? Perhaps. ~wink~ It’s [...]
