Thursday Travels – Writing Space

Standard

image

Today I am in a writing place. Sometimes, the traveling is far, and sometimes it’s close by. I’ve had this on my mind to write since July, and I’ve finally say down with my computer to start it. Twelve hundred words in and its started. Writing places are special. They can be at desks, tables, coffee shops, parks, and in beds. I’ll get back there this afternoon.

Movie Wednesday – Harry Potter and The Sorcerer’s Stone

Standard

As today was my middle son’s middle school orientation and yesterday was September 1st, the day the Hogwarts Express left Kings Cross, taking Harry Potter and friends to the Scottish Highlands to the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry for the first time with the publication of the first book in 1997, I thought this was a good choice for today’s movie day.

In real time, Harry’s oldest son got his own letter and left Platform 9 3/4 yesterday. Good luck, James.

Have you received your letter?

Tasty Tuesday – Anniversary Dinner

Standard

Last week was my twenty-first anniversary. My husband and I went to the movies (The Man from U.N.C.L.E.) and out to dinner at a Japanese bistro restaurant. The food was amazing, both in presentation and taste. I honestly can’t remember the last time I enjoyed a meal this much.
