Outlining

What is an outline? Anyone who has ever been in school, most likely has had to do an outline. So, what is it and why do it? Some people call it a tool, some say a map, or a guide. Whatever the word you want to call it, it's a way to organize and visualize …

Being In The Moment

The first thing I heard this morning was a song I like but always gets me thinking. It is called Keep Me In The Moment, by Jeremy Camp. This is something I am struggling with, because I do not like the moments I am currently in. The first lines of the song strike me deep …

Vivipary

I have learned something new to me the other weekend. When I woke and entered the kitchen, I came across something gross and fascinating all at once. I have seen vegetables do this but had no clue fruits did it. Nor did I know there was a name for it. Vivipary is a Latin term …

I Can Be So Weird

I have some weird quirks about me. Explaining them is difficult to say the least because I do not understand many of them. For instance, if I eat what a call a "real" cheeseburger, all I want is lettuce, tomato, and pickle, but if I eat a not real one (example McDonalds) I will eat …

Inspiration

I currently have none. I want to write. I like writing. I have no idea what to write about. I am going on seven months living what I call the gypsy lifestyle and it is getting hard. I am finding out just how spoiled I am from living on my own for 26 or so …

Yikes!

It has now been close to one year since last writing. My laptop turned into a dinosaur and flew off into the land of the dead and I just never replaced it, until now. I am still, as far as tests show, "clean". When last I wrote, I said I had to get out of …

Toxic Town Tale

Welcome to the Destructive District of Toxic Town, located within the borders is the lovely Poisonous Plaza, where one can visit the Malignant Mall, and find all the soul sucking, life draining, depressing, damaging, deals one would never want. Oh wait, that is my work environment. We were told Friday that we had to close …

Skipping work

It is no secret how much I have grown to abhor my j.o.b. Please do not get me wrong, I am grateful to still be getting a paycheck, especially through a pandemic, it is just the one I have is soul draining. After nine hours of nothingness and being micro-managed by a boss that lies, …

The best is yet to come….Really?

I hear this phrase a lot, yet I no longer believe it. The name of this blog is "keeplivingforward" and now I cannot seem to do that. I look back and see all the wonderful things in my past, then when I try to look to my future all I see is a deep, dark, …

What A Mess

I actually started this January 1st, but am just now getting back to it. I actually forgot about it until today (3/21/2020) when I went to start another one. Hahahaha January 1, 2020 Here we are, not just at the start of a new year, but also a new decade, and I still feel like …
