  • Day 21: Song of Solomon Chapter 4 Did You Marry Your Sister?

    The great irony of this entire experiment is the first day I had an official day off from work is the day that I did not remember or was too busy to post, so now I have to post twice today. Perhaps even more annoying is I have plenty of drafts in the cue to…

  • Day 19: Top 10 Sci-Fi/Fantasy Novels I’ve Read

    Ok so this list expanded from top 5’s to top 10 and perhaps the great irony of this list is I thought I had read a lot more Sci-Fi and Fantasy Novels than I have. Truth be told I actually have not read that much which kind of makes this list in a way silly.…

  • Day 10: Top 5 Comedic Fiction Novels I’ve Read

    Perhaps some of you don’t know that over the last several years I have really been taken to reading and really have accepted 2 genres as my chosen genres to read. 1) Sci Fi and 2) comedic fiction. I guess a third would be biographies or memoirs. And then 4th poetry. I also have developed…

  • Day 8: Song of Songs Chapter 2: Lillies Galore

    Today we have round 2 of walking through Song of Solomon. Day 8 of blogging. I’ll admit it is more of a challenge than I thought. But some days writing is simply discipline. Break out the book and song and lets go for a quick walk. V. 1 she compares herself to a flower. Whenever…

    So it’s November 5th which means it’s my best friend Brian Lane’s birthday. He’s turning 70. And since one of the other things I’m doing this month is sharing top 5 lists from the last decade, I figured what better way to start my top 5’s off with hiking trips since all of my top…
