Welcome to my blog. I will post whatever I am working on, whether it be a creative writing piece, random blip that has made my day, or an opinion I would like to share with the world. I hope that you enjoy reading as much as I enjoy writing!

All ideas are my original work. I do not take credit for work that is not mine. I may borrow pieces such as comics, definitions, or quotations, but will never pass someone else’s work off as my own; I will either credit their source or make it clear that I am not their author. I merely use these as either bouncing boards from which my own ideas can take off, or wish to share something that I found worth repeating.


Remember, today is not simply something to get through, but something to treasure. So smile and enjoy it!!!

Word of the Moment (WOM)

     I believe that you are never too old to learn, and that you learn something new every day.  One of the most common things we are learning is vocabulary.  That knowledge is infinitely expanding.
     When I stumble upon an interesting word, or one with an unusual definition that I had not known, I like to pass it on.  Today’s WOM (Word of the Moment) is:
     Raffish-1) Cheaply or showily vulgar in appearance or nature; tawdry. 2) Charachterized by a carefree or fun-loving unconventionality; rakish.
     The costumes at the fashion show were a rather raffish display of the designer’s collection.
     What have YOU learned today?
