Hi Everyone. All right…I have been doing a lot of reading and blogging, but have also gotten out in the yard. I am getting the pool ready for swimming. I think the leaves have slacked off, so the robot can keep up with them. Now, it’s a matter of getting the chemicals up to par. I have also been cleaning up the yard a bit. It is very slow work, but slow and steady wins the race, right? I remember when I used to use a self propelling mower, walking the entire yard. HAH…those days are long gone. And that reminds me. I need to call the lawnmower repair people. We just spent a couple hundred bucks to fix it and it crapped out again. Now they want another five hundred bucks. I am still hesitant about paying for it. Maybe it’s time to get a new one. I will be really pissed if we fix it and it craps out before a year or two passes. This hits us hard, seeing Mr Wonderful no longer has a paycheck. We are playing a money game because of health insurance. We have to watch our income or we could be paying eleven hundred dollars a month. How in the hell do they expect us to do that?! Thank goodness he is getting some fantastic freelance work this week. F***** Covid! It put a hitch in our well laid plans. And speaking of Covid, I am hyping myself up to get out in the read world again. It’s hard, not only because of Covid, but because we have to watch our spending. What a bummer. To work so hard so we could not have to worry about bills and such…now it brings to mind those times we were wrapping coins to be able to go out. Life is…funny

Stay safe and wear a mask..

Hi Everyone. Drat. I keep meaning to make my own banner and forget until I am making the post. Oh well…maybe next week. Not a lot going on. Some warmer weather moved in, but I didn’t make it outside…rain and wind, so I have been reading and blogging.

Stay safe and wear a mask..

Hi Everyone. I wanted to share the release of Lizzie Borden, Zombie Hunter, in audio. I loved it. You can read my review HERE.

Celebrate the new audiobook (pre-order now, releases 2/21)  for Lizzie Borden, Zombie Hunter! Follow along on the blog tour for a chance to win a $10 gift card and the Kindle ebook is also on sale for $1.99! 

Have been messing around outside as much as the weather allows. I am determined to have the yard in pretty good shape this month or early in March. I want to get a jump on it, because it was so hot out last year, I couldn’t work outside much, but I could hang around the pool, which I DID have cleaned up. I am getting ready to make sure all the chemicals are in order, so I am trying to keep it leaf free. The oak leaves are pretty heavy because of the high winds. I haven’t had to run it a lot because of the cool weather, but with March right around the corner, I need to get it swimalicious! It’s starting to warm up. I can put my hand in the skimmer to retrieve the leaf basket and not feel like my hand is on fire. LOL I believe I have become a weather wimp down here. 🙂

Hi Everyone. Hope you are all well and having a good week. I spent a few days moving a bunch of books. I took my signed blogging books and moved them into the office and took that bookcase and put in the kitchen to use for a charging station, etc. I took my unsigned blogging books and moved them into the guest bedroom and moved that bookcase against the wall in the living room. Then I took my bought signed books and put them in another bookcase in the office. Then, I left a mess. I have to think about what comes next because we have so much stuff…that neither I nor Mr Wonderful want to get rid off. If I don’t share photos this week, I’ll take some for next week.

I am now watching the Senior Bowl that is taking place in Mobile, Alabama. We used to go to it every year, but since Covid…nope. Mr Wonderful has went to a practice and got some great shots.

Well, gotta run. Things to do………

Stay safe and wear a mask..

Hi Everyone. Hope you had a great week and are looking forward to what comes next. We have had some cold and some okay weather the past week.

We had some friends of ours drop by and had dinner on the patio. Happy to report the weather cooperated and I was only a little chilly. LOL

Most of the time I have a book in my hand, but the past couple of days I have tried to put them down more often and catch up on reviews. I don’t review a lot of the books I read, because then I wouldn’t be able to read as many. LOL I want to start reviewing more of them, so that means keeping up on R2R books. That’s hard when some of my favorite authors hand me two, three, or four books of theirs at a time. How can they manage to write faster than I can read. LOL I know some of them are from their back books, but eventually I will have caught up and be in the present…or future. I don’t review anything that doesn’t appear on my blog first, but I do rate them on Goodreads.

How about you? Do you review everything you read?

Hi Everyone. Hope everyone’s new year is off to a good start.

Well, it was a week…I didn’t get much reading done. I was reading Professor Charlatan’s Anthology in paperback and it took me a long time, along with Shade and the Pureblood Faeries, which was a long book too. Still dismantling Christmas, but I have not been in a hurry. Just gotta finish up the tree and the garland over the mantle. It looks so naked without all my beautiful lights. The weather has been chilly with sun and a warm day or two here and there. The pool is looking good…and all I have done is look at it. Mr Wonderful sucked a bunch of leaves out. We had some wind go through and all I can say is…knock those leaves off and be done with it, instead of shedding just enough to overwhelm the robot. lol

Stay safe and wear a mask..

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Well, 2021 was not the happiest of years and I don’t know if 2022 is going to be any better, so I plan on enjoying whatever is available to me each and every day. I am not gong to harp on the negative, instead, let’s talk about our weather here in the Florida Panhandle. It got up to 80 this past week with lots of sunshine. My mother in law was here for Christmas and because of the fabulous weather we went to a restaurant on the beach and it was fantastic. Only the second time I ate out in two years. We had a great visit and I was so happy Mr Wonderful went to get her. Alabama won their game, but my Michigan Wolverines fell flat. That’s okay. We cracked the Ohio Buckeyes and won the Bit Ten Title and we had been a 100 to 1 bet in Vegas at the beginning of the year. So….don’t ever count us out. Georgia was everything I was afraid they would be and I will be rooting against them again when they play Alabama.

I hope the new year is all you wish for….
