Connie's Corner

Just thinking....

It is pouring rain here in Gainesville, Florida, this morning and in the 60s, but in Delaware where I was born and raised, it is cold and snowy. Here is the boardwalk at Rehoboth, http://www.rehobothbeachcam.com/, where I spent many a happy summer day. Very pretty but I wouldn't want to be there just now.

Thankfully, I've no place to go today, but yesterday I enjoyed a very nice lunch with a couple of book club friends. The weather was windy but beautiful.

At my eye appointment a week ago, I finally picked out new glasses and expect to pick them up soon...oh the sticker shock. And my pressure was up so doc changed my drops to something new...and I like them much better. I have to go back the 11th of March to see if they are working.

My writing critique pod meets next Tuesday and I have no clue for my story yet. I keep pouring over memoir prompts through Google but nothing has "popped". The pressure is on. I'm thinking of writing about one of my aunts, just need a focal point. Because I had a working mom, I spent parts of summer vacation with aunts, one time going on a trip to Suffern, New York, to see an artist friend. She lived in a converted barn in rolling hills with little wooden bridges that only one car could travel across at a time. I was from a flat, small town in Delaware, and awestruck by the different lifestyle and landscape. Yep, I think that will be my story.....

until next time...c
