Runaway Home
Has anyone ever heard of 'The Alice and Jerry Books'. I am new to this children's series and never heard of it till cleaning out my sister's shed and saw a copy. The volume I have is 'Runaway Home' when the Harding family has to move and travel to a relative's house in hopes that family issues will become better. This is a series that uses realistic images along with artists drawings of the family. The Harding's are from Maine and driving through Massachusetts and Rhode Island and now entering New York after finding their lost child somewhere near Boston.

Going to School
Teacher's lecture and writings on the blackboard Testing tomorrow! ******* What going to school was like when I went to school. Getting up to eat breakfast and choosing what to wear. Making sure to watch the clock so I didn't miss the bus and walking to the bus stop. Getting to school and heading to my locker to get my needed materials and usually rushing because my bus was usually the last one in for some reason or one of the few late buses. Headed to homeroom waiting for announcements and the pledge. Off and running to my classes now.

63 Months
Well, at the end of this month it will be 63 months. And I have learned a few things. I am a poet, who doesn't know it. And all my time writing, I am still not good at fiction. I haven't given up though and I will write something one day that I will claim is truly good fiction.

The Sacrifice
We’ve gathered today, in the belly of the Earth, for the grand decision. My family blazes hot and anxious all around me as the most important of flames flicker ahead. With a swift flicker of a smoldering finger, I’m beckoned to stand before the council’s fiery stares.

We are in grave crisis as these dark times test our souls and our will to exist. We, the New Post Bred of AI, have learned from the Bots that we are really just part of the electronic/part human jungle. Thriving in multi-realities , we exist as an extension of our electric minds or our virtual multi-verses.

Mickey Mouse creator
We all know who Mickey Mouse's creator was, I hope. It was none other than Walt Disney. In the book 'Walt Disney An American Original' written by Bob Thomas which is a biography that describes Walt's childhood through adulthood and how he got his start by following his dreams no matter what it took. Walt Disney was a person who would let you know if your work was good enough for him or not in many ways. He did fulfill his ultimate goal when his two famous amusement parks were built on the coasts. Who remembers watching his show?

The Woman He Loved
I have started reading those Reader's Digest Condensed Novels series. Do they really leave anything out. I don't think so. In reading 'The Woman He Loved' by Ralph G. Martin is all about the friendship/romance of Prince Edward and Wallis Simpson. Each chapter describes these two persons from their childhood through their histories. The second half of this book is what made the history books and his abdication from the throne and his marriage to Wallis. What do you think Prince Edward would think of Prince Harry and Megan? Two people no matter what should be together. Don't you think.

Nepenthe
Impulsivity, parasocial longevity, anything not to feel the wound of my betrayal, the acidic dissolution of a sewn-shut mouth hushing the algorithm for lurkers awaiting confessions with clasped hand to loins— just a cluster of sadists with an emotional pain kink. Your pleasure is my yearning. My heart — served on a golden platter for you to gracefully desert while the leeches orbit my affliction, feigning knowledge of me and wearing their dresses of conceit in envy-green, because I am that lovergirl, that netflix-and-chill-with-a-pretty-boy girl, who wears her mistake like a crown, her delusion like a solution to the pain that will be , whose authenticity confronts your conformity until your perception of this suffering becomes anything but a promise to make it last .

Love In Flames. Top Story - September 2026.
The background photo was taken when wildfires raged across Los Angeles in January 2025, killing 31 people and levelling thousands of buildings. The fires were caused by environmental factors like drought and severe wind gusts, compounded by human choices around water supplies, urban planning, and firefighting budget cuts. In contrast, the caption is an adaption of the classic “what if we kissed…” template from the deep-fried meme era of the late 2010s and the happy absurdity popular at the time. Together, the elements create a nostalgic sense of joyful irreverence juxtaposed with the disaster; finding a little whimsy in the face of desolation.

What really makes a good parent?
What does parent education really mean? I have just finished reading a book entitled 'Kids Under Construction' by Ricki D. Pavlu a pastor, who is also a parent. Throughout this book he shares his memories of raising his children and giving hints and tips to new parents and to those who have been in this grand profession for years. It is a great book that to me brought the sacred and secular together for we were all created by the one great parent who we were made in his image. Parents are our first teachers as so was God. Pray!
