Sandy's Extraordinary Journey
In the tranquil suburbia where Sandy's family resided, the smart young Golden Retriever, his boundless curiosity often led him on adventures that danced along the fine line between mischief and wonder.

A Wild Canasta
Have you ever played Canasta? It calls for at least four players, multiple decks of cards, and all players to be completely dialled in. There is a list of hands that have to be played in order to win. Each card is worth its' number in points. In order to complete a red canasta you must play seven of a kind together; this hand is preferred over the black canasta, which is completed with wild cards. The highest valued canasta, however, is the wild canasta: All cards are either twos or jokers. It is an extremely random hand, because the assorted decks have varying facets.

So last night I had a self-proclaimed "night-howler" up in the middle of the night for a few hours and didn't get my full amount of sleep, but hey... that is normal around here. I was surprised, however, when no one woke me up at the crack of dawn!
The Schizophrenic MomPublished 2 months ago in Families- Content Warning
"Every Love Story is a Ghost Story"
I’ve been reading a book of great importance to me. It’s not the content that’s important so much as the person the book belonged to, but we’ll get to that. This is perhaps the fifth or sixth time I have picked this book up and started through it. Sometimes I finish it, sometimes I don’t, sometimes I skip around and read only what I want. No matter the time I devote to it, I always find something new. David Foster Wallace had a way of doing that with his writing. Whether it’s because his sentences can take pages to reach a period, or his lexicon leaves you reaching for your dictionary every few words, or because the works he wrote were layered and complex, revealing small personal truths over a longer period of processing and digestion, DFW consistently makes people slow down and think. For better or worse, Wallace highlighted the most depraved aspects of humanity and his soul. Oblivion is no exception to this rule.
Dear Mother
Dear Mother, In the solemn stillness of my thoughts, I reach out through this letter, a vessel for the words that weigh heavily upon my soul. What can I say, Mother? The words 'I love you' from your lips often come shrouded in the aftermath of scolding, their warmth lost in the chill of discipline.

The Colors Of My Dragon's Scales
I saw her as the most stunningly beautiful creature imaginable. Graceful in her movements, confident in her melodic voice, with bright shining eyes that could captivate your soul. She stood out from the ordinary creatures around her; the sunlight dancing across the rainbow jewellike scales along her back. When she spread her pearlescent wings wide, the world would stop and stare in awe. I had the fortune of growing up in the shadow of those wings.

One of the first people that can be there to inspire a woman is their mother. Anyone who grows up with their mother around them is given their first possibility for a role model, someone who brought them into the world and will help to lead them through it as they grow up. I was lucky enough to have my mother with me throughout my life, so there are many stories I could write about my experience with her.
