The Giggles....

I am sitting catching up on emails and the news and I can hear my children giggling like crazy with their Grandma. Not just little chuckles but true belly giggles! It is an inspiring sound first thing in the morning! So that brings us to today's post - what makes you giggle? Not just little chuckles or small laughs. What makes you truly giggle from the tip of your toes? What causes a great big belly laugh? Write about it!

My Home Town

Where is home for you? What city or state or country do you live in? Why do you love it? What would you change if you could? Write about it!

Free Write

I was thinking - there must be something you keep saying to yourself - when is she going to have us write about XXX. Well in that I haven't managed to perfect my mind reading skills as of yet. Today I want you to write about that THING - that thing you think I should ask you about or have you write about - so WRITE!

About Writing...

If you have stuck with me this long - then you are obviously committed to journaling. If you haven't stuck with me - then I am talking to myself - which really isn't anything new! All that being said - today's entry is about journaling. Looking back on what you have written, how does it make you feel, are there any entries that are particularly meaningful to you? Do you have suggestions for future entries - feel free to leave a comment! Today write about writing - how does it make you feel and why is it important?

Today again...

We are stepping back from all the touchy feely stuff from the pat couple of days. Today it is time to write about your average typical day again. What does it look like, how much time do you spend on certain tasks? Has it changed much since the last time we did this? Write about it!

I am...

Do you ever sit down and write I statements? It is a very introspective experience! Today sit down (it doesn't have to be all at once) and write 15 or more I statements...

I am a woman
I am a business owner
I am strong
I am thin

They don't have to be true statements - perhaps they are dreams or goals - but write them as if you have already achieved them.

Excitement in the air....

There is a lot of excitement in the air around here lately. Things are going well, school has started, and I am feeling rather productive. We have visitors coming the end of the week and there is a general feel of excitement around the house. So as the weather starts to turn colder, and we all settle back into our fall routines what are you looking forward to? What are you excited about? Write about it!

Early Morning Noises...

Have you gotten up before everybody else lately? Did you have the chance to just sit and listen? It would seem that my house is alive - I can hear it brething and snoring while everyone else is still asleep. It moans and groans as it comes awake and before you know it the everyone will be up and running around. It is really very peaceful! I can still hear the crickets outside. What does your morning sound like before everyone else is awake? Write about it!

Fall...

When you read the word fall what comes to mind? Write about it!

A Good Read...

School has started and that always makes me think of new books. (In fact I just ordered 5 of them on-line a few minutes ago!) So have you read any good books lately? Are there any books you have set aside to read? How often do you try or get to read? Write a book report - okay it doesn't have to be like when you were in school! But if you have read a good book lately write about it! How did it make your feel? Did it impact your life in any way? Was it a self help book? What 'nuggets' did you take from it that you will incorporate into your everyday life?

Word Games...

When you read the word fantastic - what is the first thing that comes to mind? Is it a memory, an item, a person? Write about it!

Organization...

How do you keep yourself organized? Do you make lists? Do you carry a planner? Are you a pack rat or a purger? What works for you? Have you always been the way you are or have you had to learn your craft? Write about it!

Small World...

Have you ever had an experience that made you stop and think - WOW - small world? Bumbed into some with mutal friends or ran into someone you knew have way around the world? What are your thoughts when this happens? Write about it!

Staying up Late...

When was the last time you stayed up past Midnight? Is it something you do all the time? Are you a night owl? How do you feel the next morning?

Because I don't want to!

What chores or tasks do you have to do from time to time that you detest doing? What gets put off until you HAVE to do it because you don't enjoy the task? Is it a routine every day task or is it something more challenging?

10 years ago...

Think back ten years ago. What where you doing where did you live. Take a close look at yourself and write about what has stayed the same and what has changed! Don't just look at the physical - look at your strength, your ambitions, your tolerance, your overall attitude about life!

Feelings...

What makes you feel really good? Is it a physical act, a emotional state, or just a mood? When you are going about your daily life what makes you stop and think 'hey - I am an amazing person'?
