I finished it!
My husband says that I celebrate everything. And he’s right. I do. In fact, that is really what this blog is about, celebrating even the very small joys in life. But today I have something big to celebrate. I finished my middle school novel! I am having my writer son, Caleb, (see http://www.calebmonroe.com ) and my […]
Untitled-a poem
Untitled My brain is tired; I hold the pen. the paper’s clean–the words within. I screw my face and grunt and squirm. The words won’t come—I draw a worm. They say what matters most—start writing, and so with all my heart I’m fighting. Today what matters most is writing! copyright 2005 Robin Prince Monroe […]
Laundry Chute-a poem
Maybe you like doing laundry as much as I do??? Laundry, Chute! A shrill alarm sounds in the hall, then still and quietness. I rush toward the siren call, to rescue my red dress. The latch released, I close my eyes then lunge into the dark, to free the poly-cottons from the hot breath of […]

Six Wags
Well, we finally got there. We have driven past this play park for dogs for the last five months. Today was cool enough to take a pug outside for a run so we went to Six Wags. Lucy loved it!!! First she ran all around looking back at me like she was saying, “Are you […]
Pug Emergency
My pug, Lucy, makes a habit of eating anything she can get into her tiny mouth. Last night when I took her out for her last potty she found something in the leaves. That something started her coughing and gagging. This isn’t the first time she has done this. She sees the whole world as one big […]
