The Dead of Winter
So blessed readers (and I call you that with true intention as blessings you may need if you dare continue reading) This is Jack. Jack, as you may have noticed is no ordinary snowman. Jack is in fact a ZOMBIE snowman. I owe his presence in my life to the muse of a fellow Bedlam […]

The Saturday Sabbatical
So blessed readers, several fellow bloggers have posted recently about the importance of consciously committing to creative time. It is said great minds think alike and while I lay no claims to any form of genius, I found myself in sync with these same thoughts. Here is my post on the matter. I must admit […]

Who’s on First?
So blessed readers….a post on the Bedlam Farm Creative Group page got me thinking….. First you may note the change in my greeting. I have felt for a while now the blog intro sounded forced. To greet this virtual gathering as “dear” implies a level of amity ( look it up, it’s a word worth […]

Ode to the Zombie Pig
So, dear readers. This poem insisted on being posted. It is an inside reference to a muse of one of my Bedlam Farm Creative Group friends. It may seem mysterious to some, especially the photo orb.

Good Tidings
So dear readers, here in the Land of Lake Effect Snow we are deep into the hustle and bustle of the holiday season. It is all too easy to lose sight of the Spirit of the Season when dashing through the snow in a four horse powered all wheel drive. There are presents to purchase, […]

Chasing Rainbows
So, you know dear readers that I myself am a reader of several great blogs from fellow members of Jon Katz’ creative group. (quiltofmissingmemories.wordpress.com , treehousefoodie.com , quarryhouse.wordpress.com to list a few) The group also has many gifted photographers, poets, musicians and artists. Frankly I consider myself quite the interloper, a fool among princes, given to […]

All Good Things Conclusion
You know that quote “all good things come to those who wait” and the platitude “everything happens for a reason” which we console ourselves with when faced with crushing disappointment? If you detest them then stop reading NOW because this is the final chapter of one of THOSE stories. They talk late into the evening, […]
