FTSF – We Need More
I’m struggling this week. I’m angry. I’m frustrated. I’ve had just about enough. Why? People are mean. People are inconsiderate. People are rude. It’s true. You know it’s true.

Love in Ten Lines – Simple Love
Some of my dear bloggy friends, Ivy at Uncharted and Christina and Tony at The Plagued Parent tapped me for the Ten Lines about Love poetry challenge (or whatever the actual name is). I put it on my to-do list and promptly forgot about it. Then I wrote the poem and promptly forgot about it. So…
