Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 15 Comments/ 61

I am a fan of the good old fashioned pen and paper. Now mind you – I LOVE technology. I love my MacBook Air. I love all things that make my life easier and my computer definitely does that for me. I can’t imagine being Continue reading →

Monday Musings

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 18 Comments/ 41

Another Monday, another week, another continuation of the week before. Am I the only one who feels this way? Or is it a common feeling out there? I just feel like the weeks are running into each other with not much differentiating between them. This Continue reading →

Sometimes You Just Need a Big Ole Bowl of Chex Mix

Beth Ann Chiles/ Life stories, Writing/ 12 Comments/ 63

Chex Mix. Party Mix. Whatever you call it it is sometimes the answer to what ails me and this past week it was. I ordered all my missing ingredients on Amazon (gotta love how many Amazon boxes I have recycled since March) and before long Continue reading →

These Things I Know Are Truths

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 7 Comments/ 58

An updated version of one of my more popular posts. Enjoy. 1. Everyone has a story.  There is no doubt about it in my mind.   You may not “think” that you have a story, but daggum it, you do.   You may think that you have a boring Continue reading →

Life is All About the Adventures

Beth Ann Chiles/ Life stories, Writing/ 7 Comments/ 35

Chris and I were just talking the other day about how our life has been full of adventures. It really has. I can’t imagine living a boring and predictable life. It just isn’t us at all and I am sure that there are those who Continue reading →

10 Random Questions

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 20 Comments/ 26

If you had the world’s attention for 30 seconds, what would you say? Be kind. Just be kind. It costs nothing to smile at someone, open a door or offer assistance. Be kind in your words and your actions. Our world would just be so Continue reading →

When Parents Become Persons

Beth Ann Chiles/ Dementia, Writing/ 13 Comments/ 27

Sometimes there are quotes in books that really nudge me in a way. I have been on a reading streak lately again and one of my recent books on my nightstand was The Bookshop of Yesterdays by Amy Meyerson. I enjoyed the book and thought Continue reading →

Three Blue Rubbermaid Totes

Beth Ann Chiles/ Family, Writing/ 9 Comments/ 25

Three blue Rubbermaid totes sit in the apartment space above our garage. Three containers filled to the brim with photo albums, scrapbooks and memories from my side of the family. Years and years of memories are collected in these containers and as I carried them Continue reading →

A Prayer for Wednesday

Beth Ann Chiles/ Devotional, Spiritual, Writing/ 12 Comments/ 30

One of the things I have been doing lately is going through a lot of things that we cleaned out from my mom’s storage locker when we moved her the last time. While it is odd to go through things like this while she is Continue reading →

The Art of Social Media: Power Tips for Power Users

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

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
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...

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...
