Journal Entry Type #156: Just in Another Form
I recently turned a year older even though in some respects it feels like a few years older. I went home again, well my second home, and went to my dad’s memorial service. I can’t say enough how good it was to see relatives and people who knew my dad. The service was uplifting and

Poem by Ellen Brenneman
My Journey’s Just Begun Don’t think of me as gone awayMy journey’s just begunLife holds so many facetsThis earth is but oneJust think of me as restingFrom the sorrows and the tearsIn a place of warmth and comfortWhere there are no days and yearsThink of how I must be wishingThat you could know todayHow nothing

Journal Entry Type #155: Death Becomes A Part of Life
The start of 2023 didn’t happen the way I wanted it to because I went home unplanned to MN because my dad wasn’t doing so well. I’m glad I went home because the four days I was there, he passed away on my last day. It hasn’t even been a week since he has died,

Journal Entry Type #154: This Too Shall Pass As In I Survived Another Year
I have a three-day weekend due to the New Year being on a weekend this year. Before my recent job, I would’ve had to work while a lot of people were ringing in the New Year. I live in a city where many come to celebrate. It’s not as busy as NYC. I can and

Journal Entry Type #153: Are You Tired, Yet?
I don’t know if anyone has noticed but when you start a blog entry, it asks you a random question. I ignore and delete them. This one asked the equivalent of where you are today is what you envisioned last year. I would say a big no because I thought I’d be in management somewhere

Journal Entry Type #152: What Difference a Week Makes!
It’s been a long three years since I lost my job during COVID. I wasn’t able to replace what I had lost quickly. It took quite a long time and there were many instances where I was certain all the doors were closed to me. I was certain that the opportunities out there didn’t apply

Flash Fiction: When They Die In the Silence
When they try to run me off the road, my car inches over and the edge next to the cliff, far down, gets closer and closer. I dare not peek anymore. I know I’m not closer to my death because I don’t fear death the way others do. I am not afraid to die because

Journal Entry Type #151: Set and Reset
The best advice I can give someone who is just starting out in life such as in their early twenties or even early thirties, is expect the unexpected. I know I’ve said this before, but I never thought I’d be in this position I’m in now. Seriously, I’ve never thought I would be here but

Journal Entry Type #150: Don’t Underestimate Your Body
I spent yesterday watching the midterm elections. I spent today watching a minor surgery and having unexpected reaction to either food I ate earlier or the combination of watching syringes shooting lidocaine into someone and the smell of burnt flesh as the skin was cut open. This led to me having to excuse myself and

Journal Entry Type #149: Saturday Sickness
I’ve spent the last week trying to not get sick because I’ve been around sick people. Needless to say, I got sick and now have been trying to not let the virus get too out of hand, as if I even have a choice. I’ve been watching Animal Kingdom all day long and wishing I

Flash Fiction: Back Up the Truck
I’m not even touching my second novel until the new year so enjoy this FF because it’s based on a dream I recently had, which seems to be my inspiration lately because I’m not getting it anywhere else. As I watched from a distance the long semitruck back up within a tight space, I was

Journal Entry Type #147: TV Imitates Life
I used to believe the world was in front of me, full of possibilities, and while I somewhat still believe this, another part of me is less convinced the world has an infinite number of possibilities. I don’t think everyone born onto this planet (Earth at the moment) is on the same footing. It is

Journal Entry Type #146: Here We Are Again
I feel like I’ve failed again completing blog postings at the end of September, but I have a good reason, I suppose. It’s not an excuse but I’ve come to a point in life where I’m not going to apologize for living my life the way I want to, no matter how lazy I have
