It seems as if I am slowly coming out of this mental coma I've been in for some time as you can see from the several pieces I have submitted today. The bricks of the blocking wall are coming away...one piece at a time. Stress and emotional turmoil is usually the culprit for creating that wall...yet it is amazing at how meeting a person who seems to be the twin of your soul can easily help to chip away at that wall without even really trying. The prism crack I've been used to seeing now and again has become a window of inspiration. The chaos and stress is still running amuck...but has finally been fitted with a leash and awaiting the coming of a steel cage to get control of it.

Seems I have ventured out into a slightly different type/order of writing. I'm kind of enjoying the change up...and interested in seeing what else prevails from this new muse I have found. I am currently working on another "mini-short" that I on occassion tinker with...not sure when it will be ready as it has only been started and have been hella busy lately with the havoc life creates...but hope it will be completed in a fairly decent amount of time.

My Lil Man is finally in Kindergarten. Seems that his ability to talk non-stop from the minute he gets up...to the minute he falls asleep (and sometimes during his slumber as well)has not faultered with the busy day he has...as his teacher has already attested to me. I was rather irritated at hearing that I may need to take him to a pediatrician for his "problem"...which my first thought was how you usually take them when they "don't" talk much. The idea that she gave the feeling she would rather have him medicated and sitting in class so she doesn't have to deal with trying to teach him to be quiet when class is in session didn't set well with me and I don't think she would be smart to push that idea any further with me. My daughter was the same way (until reaching the age of about 12 where she settled down in class and then made up for the hours of being quiet by speed talking when she came home) and she has grown up just fine. My kids are very social beings who enjoy talking about whatever comes across their minds...albeit it can be not so great at times depending on what is on their minds...but then again, they get it honest as I'm one to speak my mind as well.

I am currently looking for work now that Lil Man is in school and in the process of making some major changes around here. When that comes to the fore...I may be MIA for a bit (which isn't different than the time I'm away during the mental walls I've fought with)but when things are settled, I shall be back on as I usually am. So don't worry when that happens as it means I am in the process of finally becoming happy with my life. I'm not sure if it will effect the style of writing I'll be doing then...but shall be interesting to find out. Although I'm sure I'll still be doing as I've been as well for there is plenty locked inside I can gain inspiration from. So more than likely...I'll just have several different genre's to play with.

So this should bring you to where I am now...I'll post again another update after awhile as I hate to update these daily...even weekly. Just seems like "filler" when most days are the same. So I hope you enjoy my latest pieces and take care. Sending wishes of love, peace and inspiration on the wings of a gentle breeze....
