Hurricane Irma
If you are anywhere in Irma's path, you're in my thoughts. I hope you are safe, or safe as you can be if you stayed. My family stayed. My brother and his family are in the Tampa area. My mom and grandmother are in central Florida between Ocala and the Gulf of Mexico....
Bout of Books 20 Tally and What I’m Planning Next
So, my tally for Bout of Books 20 isn't as high as I'd hoped it would be. I made it through 3 1/2 of the Magic and Mayhem books by Robyn Peterman. I had wanted to make it through all 5, but life happens. I don't feel too terribly bad because I came into it so late,...
Music Monday – Right Here Waiting
My son started his senior year of high school today. It's a bittersweet day for me. He's my youngest. So, this will be the last time we have a year together like this. He plans to go to college here in Charlotte and won't be moving out for a while, but there is a...
I’m Participating in Bout of Books 20
Hello my dear Readers... I've been reading a lot. I will post a list of books that I've read soon-ish. But, in the course of reading a lot, and I've started following a lot of readers and other book obsessed people on Instagram and Twitter the last few months and it's...
Mark Your Calendars for the October 21st #readathon
Back in April, I joined in on a #readathon on Twitter organized by 24hourreadathon.com. I came into it late with no plan of what books I was going to read, snacks, what to do with the family so I wasn't disturbed, a good night's sleep before so I could stay awake for...

Music Monday – Imagine Dragons: Demons
This is for my son who turned 18 yesterday... He has always been about music that moves him and touches him. No one he goes to school with listens to what he does, be it Imagine Dragons, RED, Chevelle, Breaking Benjamin, etc... He's always been his own person, with...
Music Monday – Harry Styles: Sign of the Times
I'm going to confess something here. I was shocked and amazed and completely speechless after watching Harry Styles' performance on Saturday Night Live a week or so ago. His song Sign of the Times has been stuck in my head ever since. As I was working on this post and...
Music Monday – Lady Gaga: Million Reasons
I've been listening to a lot of different music lately. And when I say different, I mean, I'm all over the place. I haven't gotten crazy, but I've been stepping into alternate comfort zones with what I'm listening to and what I'm searching for... Lady Gaga is one of...
Let’s Talk Bear Shifters…
Because there seems to be some confusion. In the beginning of Bear Haven, I said this: The ride in general isn’t over, but the ride in the Southern Shifters Kindle World, for me, is. At least for these characters. At least for the foreseeable future. So, lets clarify...
