I Am

This week for the Writers Workshop I am using this generator and writing an I Am poem.  I am not good at writing poetry but since this one is easier to do because all I had to do was fill in the blanks I figured I would give it shot.

I am creative & focused
I wonder what babies dream about
I hear a fly flying around
I see leaves blowing in the wind
I want to be happy
I am creative & focused

I pretend that people don’t get me down
I feel my heart beat
I touch soft cat fur
I worry about my job
I cry when I get let down
I am creative & focused

I understand my life so far
I say the truth
I dream about my friends
I try to be happy and positive
I hope for happiness
I am creative & focused

Submerged

About

A sabotaged plane. Two dead deep-water divers.
Yancey, Alaska was a quiet town . . . until the truth of what was hidden in the depths off the coast began to appear.
Bailey Craig vowed never to set foot in Yancey again. She has a past, and a reputation–and Yancey’s a small town. She’s returned to bury a loved one killed in the plane crash and is determined not to stay even an hour more than necessary. But then dark evidence emerges and Bailey’s own expertise becomes invaluable for the case. Cole McKenna can handle the deep-sea dives and helping the police recover evidence. He can even handle the fact that a murderer
has settled in his town and doesn’t appear to be moving on. But dealing with the reality of Bailey’s reappearance is a tougher challenge.  She broke his heart, but she is not the same girl who left Yancey. He let her down, but he’s not the same guy she left behind. Can they move beyond the hurts of their pasts and find a future together?

My Review

I loved everything about this book.  The minute I started the book I couldn’t put it down and read it all in one  day.  The characters instantly came alive to me.  The author did a great job of grabbing my attention right away and held it through out the entire book.  They made all the places and characters come alive.  It had great suspense and kept me on the edge of my seat until it was over.

#Poppit

I am not sure if you guys have heard about Pogo before but let me tell you that I love the site.  I actually have used the site since I was in a freshman in college.  I found it one night when I didn’t want to study so I was looking for something to entertain me because who really wants to study and do homework when you can find a great game to play.

The first game I found on Pogo.com was Poppit and let me tell you to this day I will always play this game.  It is a fast paced game and is so much fun to play when you need to take a break from working or if you are just looking for something to entertain you.  I can’t even tell you the hours I have spent playing this game.  Once I start playing it I forget that anything else is going on in the world.  Since I am writing a post about it all I want to do is stop and play the game instead of work.

I am sure most of you know by now that I always seem to be on the computer working but I also take time to just relax and take time for me and with that time I am always playing games.  Online games are great because they are easy to use and I can also play they from my phone if I happen to be at an appointment or something like that.

I have included the game below so you can play it.  I knew I better put it at the bottom of the post because if I say it at the top of  the post I wouldn’t get to reading the post because I would be to busy playing the game.  You really need to check out Pogo.com and play Poppit!

“I was compensated for this post.  All opinions expressed are my own.”

Race against the clock and pop as many balloons as you can. To play the Poppit!™ Sprint puzzle game, all you have to do is pop groups of two or more balloons of the same color in one minute. Fast pops of three or more balloons of the same color increase your multiplier and score.

Changes Over The Last Year

Wow this past year has changed me in so many ways. I can’t even imagine where I would be if my life hadn’t changed that much.  I am going to write about the changes over the last year for me and some of the people in my life. All the changes has been so good for me and also for the people that are in my life.

It was this time last year that they let Misti go at work. I still remember the day they let her go like it was yesterday even though I still wish that is was just a bad dream and that I could wake up for it. I don’t know that it will ever be the same here without her being here. It is even harder to wrap my head around the fact that she has had a baby and is now a mother.

Also anyone who has followed my blog from the start will know that my daughters birthday is coming up and that always makes it a tough time of year for me. I am finding that this year is going to be harder than some of the past years have been. It is always hard to gauge how a year will be for me but I think this is going to be hard for me.

Well that was quite the tangent so lets get back to the post. Other than those things I am still pretty much blogging about the same things. I really haven’t changed what I blog about because I have always just blogged about my life and for the most part my life doesn’t change that much.

How has the past year been for you?
