• Happy Halloween!

  Each year this holiday comes around I am always amazed at how fast the year has flown by! Candy is fun. Hocus Pocus is a fave tradition in our household. Also Michael Jackson’s thriller is a must. It brings back so much nostalgia. Enjoyed movies and tacos with my little family tonight. Only had three…

• 🫧Mermaids,and book three😏

  

  I started this journey with an idea. A love of the little mermaid. Now it has evolved into a trilogy and it’s wonderful, amazing, fun. I have not figured out everything yet. I have started outlining again. Third book is super important, more important then the other two. It is the conclusion and the end…it…

• What is in a name…🙃

  

  I am a nerd in all things. So researching names is a fun hobby for me. It is fascinating how names have meanings, colors, history. Each name I chose doesn’t just sound cool it has meaning behind it too! That way it’s more memorable. I think names can be very magical. Also stereotypical. However they…

• 🎄Favorite Christmas movies and favorite memories…❤️

  

  Every year we watch certain movies that evoke Christmas for us. It does not feel like Christmas until we see and hear them. My favorite book of all time is “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens… it is such a beautiful story about redemption and second chances… My favorite version of this book is a…

• Crazy times….for Black Friday sales or something?

  

  It has never made sense to me why people trample each other for socks sales? I am all for good deals…at the expense of someone else’s life or injury…not worth. I can honestly say I haven’t been to Black Friday sales since I was a twenty something…I have since shopped on line for years. I…

• Gratitude…a simple thing means so much.

  

  It’s always a time of reflection when thanksgiving comes along. I always think of my grandma Leone… she loved any excuse to have us come over… she wanted family around at all times…it’s been twenty eight years since she died..I still think of her all the time… She taught us so much… kindness, humility, joy,…
