Actions Louder than Words

Beth Ann Chiles/ Devotional, Writing/ 6 Comments/ 564

I read an interesting quote the other day by Christian minister Robin Meyers. It made me stop and think. “Consider this: there is not a single word in {the Sermon on the Mount} about what to believe, only words about what to do. It is Continue reading →

Obviously

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 10 Comments/ 547

I am often astounded by the labels that accompany products these days. I bought a new curling brush and saw this label on it when I unboxed it. Seriously. I guess they have to label things to avoid lawsuits but really? I would hope that Continue reading →

No Thank You!

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 26 Comments/ 573

I really should have put that title in all caps but I didn’t want to shock anyone. Last week when we were babysitting our darling grandson this was the phrase that we heard often. The favorite phrase used to be “No dis” meaning of course, Continue reading →

I’ve Got Troubles

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 30 Comments/ 708

Troubles. I’ve got a few. A couple weeks ago my internet was wonky. It’s difficult to be a social media addict and have internet woes so I sent an email to our provider to let them know that service was spotty. I went onto their Continue reading →

Stuck and Irritated

Beth Ann Chiles/ Life stories, Writing/ 26 Comments/ 863

Stuck. Irritated. That describes a lot of things but today it is a condition that I find myself in. I had a lovely salad for lunch filled with kale and cabbage and brussels sprouts and other lovely items. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Until an hour Continue reading →

When Life Isn’t Fair

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 46 Comments/ 3101

We’ve all been there at one time or another. Whether we are a child or an adult those words have most likely come out of our mouth “That’s not fair!”. I remember pairing those words with my other favorite words as a youth “I am Continue reading →

Another Motherless Mother’s Day

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 14 Comments/ 775

It’s a similar refrain for many of us, isn’t it? A Mother’s Day without our own mother. It’s especially difficult for those of us who had really great moms. Not everyone can say that and I understand how difficult the day can be for so Continue reading →

Ah Choo!

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 14 Comments/ 630

Tis the season for sneezing and allergies. This year has been the worse I have ever experienced. This morning I headed down to the dock to have my morning coffee and have some quiet time. I have had such a busy week and it was Continue reading →

Can You Read This?

Beth Ann Chiles/ Dementia, Writing/ 30 Comments/ 665

It’s been a week of appointments. Whew. Dentist. Hair cut. Eye doctor. If your area is like where we live, if you get an appointment for something you try your darnedest to keep that appointment because scheduling them is somewhat of an accomplishment. Most places Continue reading →

Job for a Day

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 22 Comments/ 555

Sometimes I like to read writing prompts and this one hit me as a good one to explore. What is a job that you would like to do for just one day? Well, that is a very good question, isn’t it? Hmmm. It got me Continue reading →

The Art of Social Media: Power Tips for Power Users

As always Guy Kawasaki has a great book with great information about all things social media. I highlighted tons of places in this book and it is definitely one that I will come back to time and time again to help me in all of the socia...
Old Girls in Low Cotton

Old Girls in Low Cotton
by Helen Childress
This short book was one that looked like it would be a fun read. I honestly did not enjoy it all that much---it was a lot of characters bickering and while some of the writing was witty and funny it was not that kind of book that made m...
The Good Girl
5 of 5 stars
The Good Girl
by Mary Kubica
I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...
All the Light We Cannot See
4 of 5 stars
All the Light We Cannot See
by Anthony Doerr
This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...
An Abundance of Katherines
5 of 5 stars
An Abundance of Katherines
by John Green
Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
