Our thoughts are mere drops in the bucket. Here are my candid views on life, marriage, motherhood, children, religion, politics, and relationships . . . and some photography and poetry mixed in for good measure. Enjoy.

The fount of words has dried and all that's left is punctuation . . . .
Several times a week I read technical reports. I review them for consistency, readability, punctuation, and grammar. I have also been reading a lot of fiction. Thrillers and suspense novels have climbed into the car with me to be devoured on a plate of pillows and pajamas. If I am given a string of words, I can make them sound better and give insight as to how to improve it. But the words I want to come forth from my hands and mind are not there. I used to write frequently and with such affection for the process, but the facility is gone. Is this truly writer's block or am I just not equipped to be a true writer. Perhaps I am meant to be an editor forever.
