New Perspective

Last week, I took a vacation from writing. My family and I traveled up to North and South Dakota. We had a wonderful time visiting historical places and seeing amazing landscape.

Even after we came home I refused to do any work. I wanted to give myself a break, but I found I wanted to write, wanted to get back to work. Still I stuck to my guns and didn't write a word. (Other than a to do list.)

Now, this week I'm back at it with renewed energy and excitement.

Here's to taking a break, and don't forget to check out the pictures from my trip.

New Frontier

Over the last few days, I traveled with my family to North and South Dakota. My husband has now visited all fifty states.

We went to Ft. Abraham Lincoln which is where Lewis and Clark camped and where Custer served before going to Little Big Horn. An interesting
place to visit, we saw Custer's home and got a great view of the Missouri River.

Then we headed to Mount Rushmore and saw the four presidents. An awesome sight, I recommend seeing this place. Not only for the important
historical information, but for the sheer awesomeness of the sculpture.

Check out some of my pictures on the picture page of my website.

Memorial Day

Time to remember the wonderful men and women in the military.

I am lucky in that I have a number of family members who served in the arm forces during the WWII. Luckily, they all made it home. One uncle landed on the beach of Normandy. Another served in Japan during the reconstruction. Another one helped load the atom bomb which blew up Hiroshima.

But there were also a number of them who never made it out of the states, but they did their part to serve our country.

As you can see, I have some awesome relatives.

Have a great day,

Celebrating Lifes Events

For weeks now I've been getting ready to celebrate a special event in my son's life.
Excited by the possiblitity of every one seeing our new house, I've been planting flowers, cleaning rooms, and worrying about every detail.

On Saturday, everyone arrived. We had an awesome time visiting and sharing news. Did the flowers in the front yard matter?

No, we would have had just as good a time whether they were there or not.

You could say this is a lesson learn. Don't sweat the small stuff. But I know me, I wanted the house to look the best it could.

So..... if I had to do it again. I'll probably repeat the same journey.

Some of us never learn.

Have an awesome week.

Enjoying Spring

I am excited to say that after the bad winter we had everything is coming back nicely.

Don't you just love spring.

Have an awesome week.

A Bunch of Rocks

Thought I would give you a picture of what I spent the weekend doing.

This pile of rocks laid under my deck. These beautiful rocks had to be moved, because I'm getting a new patio poured this week. These amazing items don't appear to weigh much but it can take hours to move them. Luckily, I had help.

Here's to how a small stone can make a big ripple. My muscles can atest to the fact because they're still sore.

Hope you have an awesome week.

Exciting News

I got my first review for "Baby Decision" from Fallen Angels Reviews.

The story is centered around an eighteen year old, who is unmarried and pregnant, with the tough decision of choosing between College or a baby. I'm thrilled the reviewer liked it.
