November Six Word Photo Story Challenge: “Happiness” — The most fun on two wheels. I got this beach cruiser for Christmas last year. At first, I was disappointed with the color because I was pretty sure we’d ordered black and pink, but when we took it out of the box, it was army green and pink. …

Jumping for joy with the letter J — An A to Z Challenge — Jigsaw puzzles I’ve always loved jigsaw puzzles. The quiet concentration. The satisfying click of a piece falling into place. I don’t have them anymore, but I can still remember my earliest puzzles — Wonder Woman and Mork & Mindy. Once I start a puzzle, I don’t want to stop until…

Indulging in images that start with the letter I — A to Z Challenge — Ice cream I’ve been craving frozen yogurt lately, but after one of our recent lunch trips my husband and I stopped by Jeremiah’s Italian Ice — this was as close to froyo as I was going to get for the time being.

October Six Word Photo Story Challenge: “Site or Sight” — Walking to ward off the blues. I’ve had a lot of nervous energy the past week and a half, and thankfully the weather is finally nice enough to allow me to get out and breathe in some fresh air. Sitting too still and letting the quiet surround me is too much right now. Besides, I’ve cleaned…

Happily highlighting things that start with H — A to Z Challenge — Hearts Whenever I tell my granddaughter about a prompt or theme for a story I’m going to write, she immediately wants to help. It makes creating photos and stories that much more fun. We were at the park last weekend, and on the way out, I asked her to take…

September Six Word Photo Story Challenge: “Shadows” — The bookish shadow solves the mystery. It’s slowly getting darker earlier. I’m ready for the cooler temps, but I still want that sunshine til 8:30p.m. I guess we can’t have it both ways. I was sitting outside yesterday, enjoying the sunshine and when I turned to come back inside, I noticed my shadow on the back…
