Fathers

What was your fathers full name? When was he born? Do you know any details surrounding his birth? Do you know how, why, and who named him? If your father is living ask him for details, if he is not, fill in as many details as you know so his grandchildren will eventually know also!

Mothers...

What was your mothers full name? When was she born? Do you know any details surrounding her birth? Do you know how, why, and who named her? If your mother is living ask her for details, if she is not, fill in as many details as you know so her grandchildren will eventually know also!

Brothers and Sisters....

And I don't mean the TV show!!!! Name your brothers and sisters and their years of birth. Are you the oldest or youngest? If you are the oldest do you have any memories of when they were born? If you are the youngest ask them if they have any memories of when you were born. If you are an only child - did you ever wish you had brothers and sisters or are you pleased as punch to be an only?

Birthday...

What was your day and date of birth? Is there a story behind your birth? Were you born in the 'olden days' when Dad wasn't allowed in the delivery room? Or does it seem that in the family history it was pretty much a day like any other?

Why write....

Today I want you to write about writing. Why do you think it is important to write and leave a history? Why these questions and why this blog? Feel free to share your answer in the comments section!

New Years...

I don't generally make New Years resolutions per say - however I do try to set some on going goals for myself. So today I want you to stop what you are doing and sit and think what you would like to accomplish in the next year and then write it down!!!

Are you ready?

What are your feelings today right now as you sit and read this? I am guessing if you are reading my blog and are taking the time to write then this adventure is either very important to you or you are pretty much ready for the holidays and aren't feeling too much pressure. So write about your thoughts and feelings today, what you still need to get done, what you have said forget it to.

Holiday Season

In one week we will have celebrated all of the 'major' December holidays. So today I want you to write about (I feel like a teacher whenever I type that - LOL) what your expectations are for your celebrations. Do you have great fantasies and thoughts about the day(s) or are you a take it as it come type of person? How do you think you will feel the day after?

Flowers...

There aren't too many flowers around right now - at least where I live. So I have been thinking about them a lot! So today I want you to write about your favorite flower. What do you love about it - is it the look, the way it grows, the way it smells, or what it symbolizes. When was the last time you received one or saw one? What emotions does this particular flower evoke in you?

Space the final fontier...

Okay I am not talking Star Trek! Here is your question for the day....What events in space explorations occurred in your lifetime? How did these events shape you and the world in general?

The Mother of Invention...

What do you think have been the most important inventions in the twentieth century? How have they impacted you life? Do you use them daily, or due you not use it al all but it protects the world?

Ring Ring...

What would your life be like without a phone? Do you have a cell phone? Have you become dependent on your cell phone? Do you sometimes wish you could just turn the phone off for the weekend?

And 5 more and 4 more and 3 more....

Do you excercise regularly? What type of excercise to you do? Have you fallen off the wagon? Did you use to have a good work out routine 'before life happened'? Write about the excercise habits whether they are good bad or ugly or write about goals you would like to set for improving you exercise regime!

Coffee, Tea, or none of the above...

Are you a coffee, tea, or hot cocoa drinker? Is your preference due to strong beliefs or just what you like? Do you have to have your drink of choice first thing when you wake up or is it a special treat every once in a while? Do you drink it all day long or limit yourself to one cup? Write about it!

Passing it on...

What favorite possession of yours do you want to pass on to your children or someone close to you? Why is it important to you to pass it on?

Liar Liar...

Have you ever told a lie to get out of trouble or to get out of doing something you didn't want to do? Did you feel guilty about it later? Do you think white lies are okay or is a lie a lie? Have you ever felt like you had to tell a lie to keep from hurting someone? Have you ever gotten caught in a lie? Have you told the same lie for so long that you now believe it to be true?

Books...Part 3

Okay - so I am stuck on books - I promise tomorrow a new topic! But for today I want you to make a list of at least 5 books but would love it if you did 10 or more books that you would like to read in 2007. Have fun making your list then go to your library get a card and start checking them out!

Books...Part 2

Yesterday I had you write about what you are reading right now. Today I want you to write about your all time favorite book. Why did you like it so much? Did you identify with one of the characters? When you hear or write about the title of the book does it invoke other powerful memories about the time when you read the book?

Books...Part 1

I love to read! So I want you to write about what book you are reading right now. If you aren't reading a book what about a magazine? Is the book you are reading any good? Is it a business book, non-fiction, fiction?

Lost and Found...

Have you ever lost something very important to you? What was your reaction? Did you ever find it later? What was your reaction to finding it? If you never found it did you replace it or was it irreplaceable?

Early or Late?

Are you an early riser or do you like to sleep in? Do you jump out of bed ready to take on the world, or do you slowly roll out after hitting the snooze alarm and don't really wake up until after a hot shower? Write about it - you know what I am talking about - how does your day start?

It's December...

Happy December!!! So if I tell you that you can’t write about Christmas, Hanukah, or Kwanza, but ask you to write about December memories can you think of something? Today I want you to write about the month of December. It can be about the rush of the month, the weather, a special memory, it can be about getting ready for one of the holidays, but it can’t be specifically about the holiday. Do you spend time baking? When you hear December do you instantly think of the smell of gingerbread? Whatever it is – write about it!
