Being a child at home alone in the summer is a high-risk occupation. If you call your mother at work thirteen times an hour, she can hurt you. 
Welcome to my cozy little Blog—a place where I unapologetically untangle my thoughts, parade my so-called wisdom, and occasionally drop nuggets of information you didn’t ask for. Insightful musings? Random ramblings? I’ll write, you decide.

Hurt ~ by Johnny Cash
I hurt myself today 
To see if I still feel 
I focus on the pain 
The only thing that's real 
The needle tears a hole 
The old familiar sting 
Try to kill it all away 
But I remember, everything 
What have I become 
My sweetest friend 
Everyone I know,
goes away 
In the end 
And you could have it all 
My empire of dirt 
I will let you down 
I will make you hurt 
I wear this crown of thorns 
Upon my liar's chair 
Full of broken thoughts 
I cannot repair 
Beneath the stains of time 
The feelings disappear 
You are someone else 
I am still right here 
What have I become 
My sweetest friend 
Everyone I know 
goes away 
In the end 
And you could have it all 
My empire of dirt 
I will let you down 
I will make you hurt 
If I could start again 
A million miles away 
I would keep myself 
I would find a way
I am such a night owl.  I hate that.  I wish I was a morning person.  Up with the crack of dawn and watch the sun rise while listening to the birds.  But my creativity doesn't recognize that time of day, and even if I get up that early, I sit around like a slug.  We recently bought a patio table and I have really enjoyed sitting there when I do get up with a cup of joe and my computer. Maybe soon I will find my creative side again and start up on another story!
