http://phyllishumby.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
The Write Break with Phyllis L Humby. Musings of a Writer. Monday, July 21, 2014. A Place to Write. Another unproductive day. I’m stymied. Most days I can shut out the outside world and write. Other days – like today – I can’t seem to get into it. My brain is surging with deadlines and that’s always counter-productive for me. Did he hear my inward groan? Yes, of course, I said. The deadline dates pinged off the inside of my forehead. My stomach cramped with guilt. It didn’t matter if I ...I’m not t...

HALF & HALF WITHOUT THE CREAM! – PM27's Blog
https://pm27.wordpress.com/2015/07/22/half-half-without-the-cream
A bit of this and that! HALF and HALF WITHOUT THE CREAM! In response to The Daily Post's weekly photo challenge: "Half and Half.". This week's challenge brought to mind some photos that I had taken at Lake Huron in a much colder season. Last year, on a very cold spring day, the ice collected along the horizon. A seasonal divider reminded us of the freezing temperatures and blizzards of previous months. This image and memory of that cold day, made a hot July afternoon seem more bearable! July 22, 2015.
