Dorothy Parker quotes are my favorite.

Time to step up! LOL

For those who celebrate Happy Hanukkah. Enjoy your Eight Crazy Nights.

I'm finally nearing the end of rewriting the second book. One of my favorite parts about writing is getting to use slang from the 1920s. Today's slang doesn't hold a candle to slang from the 20s 30s or 40s.

I feel this so much today 🤣.

Redid the entire centerpiece. Last time, I just freshened it up, and that was 7 years ago. So it was about time. My big brother worked at a florist shop through high school and college, and I would watch him make floral arrangements. He was very talented. It is hard to believe he has been gone 27 years. Miss him every day.

Happy December!

Christmas movie night. A magical movie. Violent Night. My son's choice 😂.

An old Fashion made with homemade bitters and homemade hibiscus simple syrup. Perfect for a vintage lowball glass and stirer. Yes, that's a duck on that glass stirrer. Ain't he cute.

I had such a great time at the Renfest this weekend. Beautiful weather and great entertainment.

On my way to the Texas Renaissance Fair. It is Celtic Christmas theme this weekend. Dressing up / cosplay is part of the fun!

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope y'all enjoy your turkey day. Time for pumpkin pie.

Kiki thinks I'm spending too much time working and not enough time with her. Kiki's plan is to sit on my lap while I attempt to write. Silly girl.

Be kind to each other.

Happy Veterans Day. Thank you all that served. This is my Dad he served in WW2. The second picture is his thank you for service letter signed by Harry S. Truman.

And it's only Wednesday

2 more books for my library. I'm looking forward to learning more and creating too.

Have a great weekend!

Today was a successful day of edits. Im getting so close to having Moon in the Cards completed. I'm not just excited for myself but to share Zelda's latest adventure and mystery. If you haven't yet read It's in the Cards you can find it on Amazon and KDP.

Ask me how the first day of NANOWRIMO went. Well, the jackhammering of the cement for the new shower for the kiddos kind of put a damper on things to start. I also forgot how loud a sawzall was. Today is a new day, and I have ear plugs now. Stay writing, my friends!

Well it's true.

Wild is the music of autumn winds amongst the faded wood. - William Wordsworth

One of my current reads. The Drunken Botanist by Amy Stewart. I am looking forward to delving deep into this book and trying out some recipes. It is facinating book so far.

Me and my baby shark at Trunk or Treat

Fixed my dehydrator finally. It was such an easy fix. I can't believe I didn't do it sooner. Ignore my messy kitchen, please. lol. Now, on to a few more chores before I can sit down to write.

While mommy and daddy are getting their scare on at haunted houses, the little guy and I are watching a spooky movie. Wallace and Gromit and the Ledgend of the Wererabbit. 👻👻👻

Looky what my thoughtful daughter gave me for my birthday! A Fibromyalgia Plushie Dreadful. It is so soft and huggable and just like me has pain areas. A bunny to make you feel better, mainly because my kid put in so much thought into the gift. www.plushiedreadfuls.com

Late night walk on the beach.
