Hi Everyone. I’m going to start by saying I have read some of the most fabulous books. No, they are not romantic suspense or thrillers of my normal murder and mayhem type, except for D V Berkom’s latest Leina Basso Thriller, Terminal Threat. These are fantasy, paranormal and apocalytpic stories that are off the charts. One is Unleashed, Defiant Dragons, Book I by Aria Glaski. She is an author I have been following for years and this may be favorite book of hers to date. I am so happy it will be a series. Another is the Hell’s Angels Series by Olivia Boothe. I am so happy I signed up for Book Sirens, because I have found and been found by some fabulous authors. Her work is BLOWING MY MIND. The Hell’s Angels series needs to be read in order and if you sign up for her newsletter, you get a prequel that will definitely whet your appetite for more. Oh, and if you are looking for some laughs with your vampires, Mimi Jean Pamfiloff has a good supply in Vampire In The Jungle. The reason I am mentioning these specifi books is because they were all 5 STAR reads for me. I find myself so lucky to be pretty darn good at finding those books that fit me.

Also, if you are looking for some great kids books, I recently read two 5 STAR books, Grace and the Golden Rule and Sammy & Scarlett’s Coral Reef Adventure.

Well, now for my TV binging. Does anyone watch Below Deck? They are having a bit of a marathon this weekend and, even though I have seen these episodes over and over, I’m watching them over again. LOL

I don’t have much planned this week. Mr Wonderful has been working the ball game at the Pensacola Blue Wahoos. They are in the playoffs, so he will be doing those too. It was so hot, I didn’t get to a game this year. Maybe I’ll make it for a playoff game, seeing it’s beginning to cool down. He’s doing some West Florida University football games and some Pensacola Ice Flyers hockey games.

Wow, I did ramble on a bit. Most of the time I keep things short and sweet(?).

Take care and stay safe.

LATEST HAPPENINGS

Hello fellow bloggers. I hope you have all had a great week, filled with family, fun and a lot of great books. I keep meaning to catch a baseball game and was bummed that I missed a visit by the Clydesdales at the Pensacola Wahoos Friday. Mr Wonderful captured some fun photos, though. I can always count on him. Myself, I’ve been doing some reading, blogging, and movie watching. I’ve also been piddlding in the yard, one of my favorite things to do. Still can’t do too much with my bum wing, but I can do some cleanup and enjoy the pool. We sure do need some rain. How about you?

In Pensacola Florida, on 12th Street, we have a bridge that is known as Grafitti Bridge. People paint all kinds of things on it, without getting into any trouble. In honor of Shark Week, an artist added this fabulous painting and I love that noone painted over it.

Stormy weather with Stevie Ray Vaughn

Posted on July 30, 2015 by fundinmental

These shots and video were taken by Mr Wonderful and me over the last several days.

Thursday – The clouds rolled in and I mean that literally. I have been watching the skies since Thursday, when the crackling boom of thunder surrounded the house and I opened the front door to investigate. Funny how the bad weather is out front and the sun shines on the pool and patio. *all photos not to be used without permission*

Friday – We had an itch to visit the beach and had to scratch it. We hadn’t been to Hooters for a while, so a wing call was in order. Hooters is on Pensacola Bay, with a view of the piers for boats and, of course, our signature white, sandy beach. It is a great place to people watch, especially as this storm rolls in. I can certainly see why we are the lightning capital and so many people are struck by lightning. Check out the video and you will see why for yourself.

Actually, I can’t remember if me or Mr Wonderful took this, but I am think three strikes and we may be out.

Hubby took this from a video. It looks like someone opened up a portal in the sky and said, “Hey you dumbasses, get off the beach.”

Saturday – Mr Wonderful was working the Pensacola Wahoos baseball game, but the starting time was delayed. As the cloud rolls in, the tarp rolls out.

This is just your typical Florida weather.

What’s the weather like in your neck of the woods?

Mr. Wonderful is working a Wahoos baseball game here in Pensacola, while I am watching Lavatrantula, blogging and playing some games on Facebook. We have a good life and truly appreciate where we are now. All our hard work is paying off.

During the Wahoo baseball games, they have quirky fun games to keep the kiddies happy, with some unlikely stars. Everyone begins early in the morning…

FREE BOOKS

Still free at time of posting, but check for the “0”.

I subscribe to Julia Crane’s newsletter and this one was short and sweet.

I spotted this gem on Alex J Cavanaugh’s twitter feed.

Then I hopped over to Katie Dolye’s website and grabbed the buy links.

A J Cosmo’s children’s books are amazing. The beautiful pictures will grab anyone’s attention and the lessons shown to the younger can still refresh the older…us.
