		<title>This Little Chair</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have decided&#8230;no, demanded!&#8230;that this will be the year that I see some of my long time dreams start to come true. To that end, I&#8217;ve been busy! Of course, one of my dreams is to be a published author of wildly popular stories. I am published - first part of that dream accomplished &#8211; the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Citizens Police Academy</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, for the past eleven weeks I have been attending my local Citizens Police Academy. It is provided cooperatively by my local city police and county sheriff&#8217;s departments and more informative than I could have ever imagined. I had a good time, learned a lot, and met a wide variety of people. There were roughly [...]]]></description>

		<title>I Gotta Be Me</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Can you guess where I am working &#8211; temporarily &#8211; right now? Yep. That&#8217;s right. I am currently imprisoned in the torturous world of Corporate America. Tall buildings, parking garages, stock portfolios, boardrooms, goal oriented cubicle stacking complete with daily office drama. The whole bit. Anyone who knows me should understand why this is a stretch for [...]]]></description>

		<title>Much Appreciation</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My much bragged-about, highly anticipated (by me), and soul satisfying day has come and gone. My first book launch event. After months of planning and preparation, stressful PR and marketing (which I&#8217;ve never been good at), and clock ticking countdowns, I am glad to say &#8211; WHEW! &#8211; it&#8217;s done and over with. If I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Pay it forward</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have always been a person who believed I had to do everything myself. I don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s just my ego telling me that nobody else can do it as well as I, or that I don&#8217;t want to waste time explaining to another person what it is that I want. When I take [...]]]></description>

		<title>What if we were naked?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[What if we all were naked. Not just for a moment, not just in our dreams, and not just when we want to &#8220;get busy.&#8221; What if every day, in all nations, all cities and every neighborhood&#8230;every one of us was naked? Would the world be different? Sure, changing things now would be&#8230;uh&#8230;challenging. We&#8217;d all [...]]]></description>

		<title>I am at peace</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am at peace. No, I&#8217;m not dead. Isn&#8217;t that what people normally say about people who have recently died&#8230;&#8221;oh that poor man, he is now finally at peace&#8230;&#8221; I never understood that. At peace? They are dead. Done living. No longer around. Gone from this world. Not dealing with life&#8217;s many wonders, stressors, pains&#8230;.oh, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Letting My &#8220;Baby&#8221; Go</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have finally reached a point in my life when I have to let my baby go. I have nurtured it, let it grow, helped create the life it will now lead as it leaves the shelter of its creator&#8217;s nest. My first story, my most treasured book. When I started writing years ago &#8211; too [...]]]></description>

		<title>Interesting Bio</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have never enjoyed talking about myself. Sure, I say this in a blog&#8230;that&#8217;s a little bit of a contradiction, right? Nah. I figure blogging is more of a babble where talking about myself is more invasive. Which brings me to my current dilemma: how do I go about writing a bio that actually makes me [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy Birthday!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Today is my birthday. My 50th birthday! Hard to believe but it&#8217;s true&#8230;hard to believe because I had a plan 2 years ago to really celebrate this one&#8230;and I mean REALLY celebrate it. So when I thought I had 2 years to plan it, I struggled and stressed for 2 years on just how I&#8217;d [...]]]></description>
