| Pompeii: After |
What does this have to do with anything? It only reinforces the fact that no matter how bad you've got it, things could always be worse. Too hot in south Florida to even step outside? Not as hot as being buried in lava. My son refusing to poopy on the big potty? Better than mushroom clouds and 3" pumice hailstones. So be encouraged, people. And if you happen to live near an active volcano...well, vaya con Dios.
On an up note, some super nice people have invited me to post at their blogs, so today, you can find me at...
I Am Alive, wherein I discuss my bucket list of favorite literary settings
Finding Bliss, wherein I share some useful self-publishing tips
Keyboard & Camera, wherein I wax philosophical with the 15-year-old Becca
A Writer's Muses, wherein I ponder the similarities between stories and soup
Have a productive, uplifting, and non-apocalyptic week!

Somewhere between there and here I must have lost, or gained(?) a couple of words? Could have sworn that I saw something about mushroom clouds? Was I mistaken?
When you put a hot summer up against lava, hot summer is the choice every time! :-)
You are SO right. I always try to be grateful for what I have because I know, were it not for the grace of God, I could just as easily be homeless...
So true?
Having trouble formatting? Frustrated at the pressure of putting out more books?
At least you're not buried under hot lava!
Love it. :)
Well, I er, feel better now? *Yay no apocalypse*
You are so right there. Hot lava is a son of a gun.
What an excellent post! I agree with you. It is important to stop and think about the great things in your life. There are awful things that happen- we need to be thankful for what we have. :)

So true, Becca! Appreciate where you are in life, because it could be much worse.
When I hear someone say they had the worst day ever, I always think "really?"
went to a Writer's Muse - excellent post -- well written and so informative-I learned a lot
LOL, Becca. Thanks for the perspective and the laugh. Pompeii is so fascinating. I hope to go there one day.
And you and Angela are staying so busy! Congrats on all that you've accomplished from your amazing work.

VERY good reminder!
So basically, no matter how bad it gets, at least there's not a massive volcano erupting somewhere, eh? ;)
Thx, SP! My husband and I went to Italy for our ten year anniversary and Pompeii was my second favorite spot (Capri was #1). It was really fascinating.
I am now glad that nothing explosive happened this week. :)
Gotta watch out for those steaming hot volcanoes!! Have a great time on your blog visits!!
I guess that puts things in perspective. : )
