Ch-ch-ch-changes.
An attitude adjustment. . . . Hi there. It’s SnapDragon. Remember me? January has almost passed us by, and I feel especially unfulfilled as an artist. I feel . . . heavy, even though I’ve lost all the baby weight. I feel . . . an odd mix of mindfulness and dissatisfaction at all that…

On The Dark.
SnapDragon originally posted this on Wise & Shine, formerly known as Pointless Overthinking. . . . I’m afraid of the dark. Like, for real. And it’s not because I think there are trolls in the basement, or Civil War ghosts in the attic. (But—ahem—now that I’ve revived that thought, I might crawl into bed even earlier tonight.)…

Just Another Day in Paradise, Yo. . . . Hi. How are you, Dear Reader? How do you feel today: body, mind, and soul? Pause. Think. Answer honestly. Me? I’m doing just fine, thanks.

Unpeeled.
Hi. . . . Hello there, Dear Reader. Whoever and wherever you are, love. How magical it is that we’re meeting here in cyberspace. Complete strangers, living our little lives. Perhaps we’re a continent or two apart. Or maybe we’re neighbors unbeknownst. Yet we’re in each other’s homes, in each other’s lives. Here. Now. And…

Whatcha Been Up To?
‘Cuz we all whittle away the days somehow. . . . I feel like every time someone asks, What’ve you been up to? I’m at a loss for a substantial answer. I mean, what have I been up to? The days seem to blur together in a stream of chores and worry, interrupted momentarily by…

Just a Little Hello.
(smiles and waves) . . . Hello, Dear Reader. And greetings from our Sweet-Baby Berkshire RV! The SnapDragon Family is nearing a week on the open road, and well, it’s been a rainy one. But that shall not dampen our spirits! We’ve seen bits and pieces of this country—the tiniest samplings of the American southeast—and…
