What did I do this past week?
Played with a child!
Read a book,
Played make-believe FBI agents
Took a walk and discussed picking wild raspberries
Painted some pictures
Had a contest--and he won two times!
Built a volcano
Shared a potato skin
Ate supper together
Talked about dogs
Had a full day of fun and laughter
and made some memories.
Love your family!

Rambling Friday: And to Think That I Saw These!
And to think that I saw these
in April
of all times...
A fat bunny hopping in the backyard,
playing a game of hopscotch!
A deer on a hillside
spying on me!
A flag in the sky
waving its glory for all to see!
A red-headed woodpecker
pecking for worms!
A tiny vase filled with flowers,
love and a smile!
A daffodil flower
smiling at the sun!
A man and a grandson,
sharing joy in the day!
What did you see in April?

Tidbits of My Life: Facts, Playing the Game of "Dogs," and March Contest Question
Facts:
I've been accused of being "Stuck-Up," abrupt, and unclear...
but actually, though my actions may point to these as truth...
I'm a person who loves to be with others--within limits.
I do so enjoy my alone times too.
In a hurry, too excited or worried, I tend to be abrupt,
but that's not my intention to ever hurt.
Unclear? surely not! But sometimes in my explaining or telling of an event, story, and/or experience, I try to keep it simple and tell it in my words and end up not including enough details.
But...
one of my greatest traits is my caring.
I truly do love to show others I care.

Of course that meant imaginative games and other fun things.
One of his suggestions was to play "dogs."
He gave me clear instructions:
"Gwandma, pretend I'm a dog and I get up on the sofa. Tell me I shouldn't do that and to get down."
One thing about him, he's a perfectionist
when it comes to getting it right.
Don't deviate. Don't change the wording. Don't mess up.
I'll just say this: one thing we always do:
Have fun and enjoy the time.
Isn't that what it's all about?

Writing Life Tidbits:
I'm working on Book Four of the Appleton WV Romantic Mysteries.
I've titled it: Toby's Troubles
The main protagonist is a brother to Caroline Gibson
(from book Three: Undiscovered Treasures).
He's smart and ambitious but also a flirt and tease.
He's definitely not ready to settle down
even when the cutest and sweetest girl he's ever dated
has that look in her eyes.
What's a man to do with a "ghost" to find
and a girl who's determined to be noticed...and loved?

March is such a moody, lively, fun month!
Spring is coming.
The earth is stirring.
Easter is approaching.
St. Patrick's day is this month.
So, my question this week is:
What is one thing you'd like to
change about your life--if you could--this spring?
Too hard?
Let me give you my answer:
I'd like to be just a bit younger--not that I want to relive some experiences!--
but just to give me time to do all I want to do!
Silly?
Maybe.
Now share what you'd like to change, if you could.
And don't forget to share this site!
Prizes?
A $5.00 gift card from AMAZON
and
a kindle copy of any of my books: your choice
and a lovely bookmark with an inspiring quote on it.
***
Are you ready for March?
Blessings!
