While I loved the song, "Rewrite the Stars" I didn't like the movie. I didn't think it realistically portrayed P.T. Barnum, his companions, or his world. Even his number of daughters, as well as the ages of the two daughters the movie did include, was incorrect. But that one song was really beautifu...

"Andrei, I know you loved her, but she passed away over a decade ago. It's perfectly fine to still love her and miss her, but you need to move forward with your life. You need to let her go." Kaylena looked at her best friend for a long time. She knew what Andrei was thinking, even if he couldn't ad...

"Awwww.. another cat! She's lovely, Brianna! Thank you for bringing her " February smiles broadly. She can't stop herself and wouldn't want to. "I'm going with a Cinderella theme this year, and I'm turning my pumpkin into a mouse, similar to a companion she had. Hey, wait a second. Brianna, did you ...

I'm watching all 16 seasons of Grey's Anatomy for about the 6th time. I really miss Derek Shepherd and Cristina Yang, but the show does a great job at casting new actors, which is probably why it's still on the air I love Supernatural. Only a handful of episodes left before it ends after 15 seasons ...

I was really struck by the concept of Hope being a two sided coin, with Pain on one side and Pleasure on the other and Balance being the key. I have a close relative with an eating disorder. His weight has ballooned to over 450 pounds. He eats with gusto, and he eats often. For him, the subsequent w...

Happy Birthday! Hope it's magical!

In October, many of us love to wear costumes and have fun going to parties or doing some trick or treating. Lots of us honor our Houses and wear our colors with pride, or we choose to join some friends and dress up as characters from another Fandom. Many of us will choose the always popular witch or...

Happy Birthday! Hope it's magical!

February looks around at all the lovely pumpkins. "Oh, I hope we get to carve some jack-o-lanterns!" she wonders to herself. When Sin asks her to help pass out some carving utensils, she knows that's definitely the plan! "Certainly! I'm on it!" Feb responds. She walks around the classroom, handing o...

"Yes, please!" February grins as she strokes Orion. "I'm so glad Hogwarts allows us to bring cats!" "The Big Dipper is another great constellation! That one is visible all year. My other favorite is Cassiopeia. All I can identify is her "throne" which to me looks like the letter m. She's always ther...

Such a beautiful, crisp, Autumn day! Perfect for my daily walk in the woods. Trees are standing, their roots in the ground, many of them preparing for the upcoming fall show. One thing nature never fails to remind me is that all trees different but all trees are equal. River Birch, with their fascin...

"He's gorgeous, Brianna!" February beams. She loves cats :wub: "Orion is a great name! I'm no fan of cool weather, but one of the sights I enjoy most is the return of the constellation Orion. That belt was the first group of stars I ever learned how to pick out in the night sky, and I always look fo...

That's a really good question! This term, I have 2 classes which have assignments due every month, so I do my best to have those assignments completed and submitted the first week of the month. 3 of my classes have everything due at the end of the term, so I'll select one at a time and focus in unti...

Mine is Cinderella. She makes the best of a really bad situation and never sees herself as a victim. She takes responsibility for what she can. When she can go to the Ball, she does, and everything good lines up to support her. She even gets her happy ending.

"That's a great question! Ollivander told Harry about a Mahogany wand choosing James Potter while he was in his shop, so I think Ollivander sold at least one Mahogany wand. That seems to be the only mention of it. How interesting!"

"That's very interesting, Tarma! I had never considered Mahogany's protective qualities before. My own wand is Rowan, which also has a deep connection to protective energies and that particular quality is important to me, so you may be on to something! Maybe that is a big reason why I enjoy the Beat...

In mid chomp with her mouth full of delicious pastry, February grins at Sindor. After finishing her treat and trying to talk herself out of a second one, she realizes what he's said. "Wait. These flavors are based on Florean's favorite ice cream recipes?? No wonder they're so delicious! Sin, you hav...

Happy Birthday Katelin! Hope it's magical!

My every year goal is 30, and my chances of actually making that depend on what I pick up. If it's a novel, it may take me a month. If it's true crime, or a "how-to, or psychology, or about dogs or animals, I can finish a book in a week.

Happy birthday Celeste! Hope it's magical!
