Years and years and years ago…. I was dating online, when it was taboo, weird or downright crazy. I was less than savvy; however, I thought it was a super concept and so I thought ‘what the hell’ and signed up. I had perused the profiles of several interesting gents…
I am in a real pickle. I’m in an awesome relationship; however, he has shaped a completely incorrect view of me. We started out more than grand; however, extenuating circumstances marred that blissful beginning. Where do I go from here? Is it worth setting the record straight OR do I…

It is never easy stepping into new water; however, there is definitely something new in the air. I would love to be able to tell you exactly what is going on, yet, I myself do not know either. I am sure that in time it will come to fruition, yet,…
Well, it’s no secret that Kenny Rogers’ song Coward of the County will always bring a tear to my eye; however, the title above has little to nothing to do with the Gatlin boys or Becky (listen to the song if you don’t know what I’m talking about). In talking…
I’ve always been an optimist and although some may think that I am unaware of the parade of crazies that I’ve allowed through my heart.. I still do believe in happily ever after. I am not thoroughly convinced that I am destined to be single forever, yet, I am less…
For any of you that know me, you know that my exterior is tough, yet, my heart and empathy for others runs deeper than those who do not know me would think. I have always rooted for the underdog, defended the weak and am dedicated to righting a wrong. Due…
It has been quite some time since an Imaginary Friend was in order; however, I’m to the point where I feel I have one. I can see him, I can hear him and on chance occurrences he’s close enough to touch… but, is he really there? It has been 4 days now…

It’s no secret that I’m a long-time Country Music fan; however, what you may not know is that Country Music has not just been something for me to listen to… the lyrics in songs have dictated many of my thoughts, perceptions and in truth, feelings. I would be hard-pressed to…
When something is going right, time flies; however, when you’re enduring something horrendous that little fast clock changes to something slower than Christmas. Why is that?

Yours is a tale of rebellion and adventure! Your life has been exciting and fulfilling. While you have experienced some ups and downs, you managed to remain resilient and learned how to smile in the face of fear. “The Diary of a Travelling Renegade” is a legendary account of your…
One of the kindest people I know, will always remain true to himself – in his own way. He will not say something, just, to make YOU feel better; however, he will not make you feel bad on purpose either. He has extreme disdain for those who do not work;…
I’m not sure how often I would send out a newsletter; however, I’m writing this post to promote the option. If I am unclear as to why I have a website, I should be equally confused as to why I would send out a newsletter, yet – here it is….
