Happy Monday! Normally on Mondays, although I’ve missed a few weeks now, I put out an update on whatever I’m currently writing, when it might be out and that sort of thing. This week, something a little different. I wasn’t a cat person growing up. We had dogs out on the acreage. Big dogs. Any […]
And, we’re on the countdown to Santa’s arrival. Only 29 more sleeps! I don’t know that we have a lot of Christmas traditions in our house. Certainly, no very formal ones. Whoever’s around helps put up the tree, then the cats help pull it down. The wrapped presents go under the tree, then the cats

Only thirty more sleeps until Santa comes!!! I still have trouble sleeping Christmas Eve although, over the years, the reason has changed…somewhat. Don’t get me wrong, I’m still looking forward to the morning when I get to play with all my new toys. But, one of the things I also look forward to is other

Sometimes, life gives you an opportunity. Most people don’t see them because they come in the form of problems. I confess that I didn’t used to see them for that very reason. I couldn’t look past the immediate problem. Luckily, over the last few years, I’ve cultivated that skill and now find that the habit

It is the morning of Monday, November 23, 2020 as I write this. Only 32 more sleeps until Santa comes and just 39 days until 2020 is finished. Christmastime always makes me reflective. I like to have a mental wander through my year and, sometimes, the years that came before. It reminds me to be

I’m old enough to remember when theaters used to show a short film or cartoon before the feature you were actually there to see. As a matter of fact, one of those was my first introduction to Mr. Bean. It was the skit where he takes a final exam. The cartoon I’m posting here is
Autographs. In my pro wrestling days, I signed lots of them. For kids. For adults. I’ve never understood why anyone would want one. Not just mine; anyone’s. I mean, really, what’s the big deal about getting someone’s signature on a piece of paper? I just don’t get it. I’d much rather buy whomever a coffee
Happy Saturday! Just a couple videos that made me laugh this week. Watch mom’s face in this next one. Hilarious! Have a great Saturday!

I have always liked to read. Always. And I can read almost anything. Non-fiction, autobiography, romance, action-adventure, science fiction. So, this list will have a little bit of everything. I also personally know several of these authors (although that’s not why I include them) and the ones I don’t know would definitely be on my

Lockdown being what it is, I’ve had the chance to do an awful lot of reading lately. Right at the moment, I’m reading The Man Who Never Was by Mark Dawson. It’s the 16th book in the John Milton series. I’ve read them all and each one just seems to get better and better. I

With a lot of us sheltered in place the last few months, we’ve all had a lot of time to binge watch everything. I’m old enough to remember a time before streaming services. I remember waiting for an agonizing week to watch the next episode in whichever series had ended in a cliffhanger last week.

I’ve wanted to write fiction for as long as I can remember. I was a big reader when I was in grade school. All the Hardy Boys books had a big place on my bookshelf, and I was always ordering books from the Scholastic Book Club. Remember those order forms they always used to hand
