Page Update

Standard

I’ve made updates to the following pages:

Quotations

Snapshots in Time

Honors

as well as a couple of posts about the honors and some aspects of last week’s travel (there will definitely be more on this coming soon).

Unfortunately, the blog doesn’t automatically tell followers if a page is updated, only if there is a new post. You will notice that if you go to the Writings page, most of the pieces have a photo on the link even if there are no photos on the post itself. Most of these are my own photographs that I’ve incorporated into the essay. I intend to have more photographs posting on their own, so I look forward to any and all feedback.

So, take a look at some of the new things, and tell me what you think.

• 7 things about Myself

1. I love to travel and I love to write and I would love to have a career where I could do just that.

2. I’ve been married almost 19 years and have three kids, ages 16, 8, and 7.

3. I only joined the internet community five years ago, met people I would never have met who have become people who are lifelong friends and I can’t imagine life without them. It is truly unbelievable and incredible.

4. I count myself among the Harry Potter, Daydverse, Doctor Who, Supernatural, Star Trek, and Politics fandoms and speak many others, but I also blog about things that interest me or concern me as a person and citizen.

5. My spirit home is Wales. I don’t know why, but perhaps in a past life I was Welsh. Nothing else explains the connection.

6. I’ve never had a cavity (even as a kid).

7. I love all my kids, but my daughter is a feisty, independent, brilliant girl and I wish I were more like her. Honestly, I don’t know where she gets it from. Actually, I think she gets it from my mother-in-law who has the same traits and many more.
