Chillin’ and watching shows I have in my DVR. A few of them are Warehouse 13, Golden Boy, Scandal, Elementary, NCIS, Chicago Fire, Criminal Minds, and Blue Bloods. Lots of shows to watch and will take me the weekend to watch them all. Also plan to watch some movies. Then will finish my day with reading a book. Have lots of books in my e-reader. I’m way behind in reading. How is your Saturday? Hope you all have a relaxing and fun Saturday.

Chillin’, DVR, movies and reading…
Saturday, May 11th, 2013Another rainy day…
Friday, May 10th, 2013Another rainy day…well afternoon. I’m enjoying it. Did my word count earlier today then went out to do some errands. Now I’m sitting in my comfy chair under a blanket and listening to the sound of rain against the windows. 
Getting very sleepy. Maybe I’ll take a nap. …or ready a book. Choices…choices. Hmmm…I can do both nap then read and nap again. That is the plan for the rest of the day.
Happy Friday!
A good conversation…
Wednesday, April 24th, 2013Today is my one of my nephew’s birthday and I’ve been trying to call him all day. It’s Carnival back home so my big sister and her family has been out having fun. I finally got in touch with my nephew and this is how part of the conversation went.
Me: Happy Birthday old man.
My nephew: Thanks, young lady.
Then we both laughed. *grin* We like to tease each other and decided that I’d get younger as he got older. LOL. He told me about his day and how he was tired. I told him that was a sign of his old age. *snicker* Of course he had a snappy come back. LOL. My nephew is funny. He and my big sister and brother in law will be here in a little over two months for their yearly trip to come see me. I can’t wait to see them. When my big sister, nephew and brother-in-law get together there is a lot of fun we get into. I’m already plotting…um…planning the wicked…um… nice things we will do. Who am I kidding there will be mayhem and mischief. ROFLMAO.
Rollercoaster day…
Thursday, April 11th, 2013Yesterday was a weird rollercoaster day. Started good then….as I posted I’ve been thinking about stuff. But the day ended with some much needed clarity. I had a long conversation with my big sister. And the one of the many things I count on her for is her blunt honesty. We have that in common. Tell it like it is and you do with it as you choose to.
After we talked about what I was thinking about these last few weeks, I was much more settled mentally. Today I’m much better frame of mind and looking upward and onward to better days.
Deep thinking…
Wednesday, April 10th, 2013I’ve been doing some thinking these last few weeks about some of the relationships I have. One in particular that feels as if it has changed and I’m sad that it has. It’s hard for me when I have someone in my life who is not good to be around. 
Grooving and singing Sunday…
Sunday, April 7th, 2013A wonderful Sunday. I was listening to my MP3 player and one of my favorite songs came on-Superwoman by Karyn White. It brought back memories of the first time I heard it on the radio. I loved the song so much I had to get it then wanted to know all the words. I replayed the song writing the words until I knew it word for word. Today when it played I was singing along (yep I remembered all the words) and grooving to the song. I replayed it a few times dancing up a storm. Then when I finally stop hitting reply guess what came on. Secret Rendezvous by Karyn White another great song. It’s a dancing and singing day. Happy Sunday!
Happy Valentine’s Day! and fav love moments
Thursday, February 14th, 2013Happy Valentine’s Day! In honor of today I decided to re-post some of my list of my fav books that have those I love you moments that made me grin like a fool or laugh out loud.
JD Robb’s In Death Series – when Eve tells Roarke she love him. She doesn’t say it often but when she does it is lovely. Doesn’t matter though I still want Roarke for my own. {Grin)
Raynetta Mannes’ All for Love – when Dare tells Angela he loves her. Dare is a hero that is just scrumptious and the story sweet and passionate.
Janet Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum series – Ranger telling Stephanie he has her listed under his entertainment budget. Heck it might not be the typical I love you declaration but dude it’s Ranger. Nough said.
Aliyah Burke, any one of her books. Heroine’s to root for and men to salivate over. Passion, love and mostly set around military men. I love me a man in uniform.
Red Garnier, any book of her books. Okay so I still have a few to get but those I read well let’s say alpha hero, spunky women and heat up the whazoo. And it’s Red. Be prepared to jump your loved one.
Julie Garwood’s The Secret when Iain casually told Judith he loved her. A hot Scottish man and a headstrong heroine.
Lauren Dane, any of her books. Still working my way through reading all of her books but from those I read be prepared to be swept away with the worlds, characters and everything. Be warned hot sexy men will make you lose all sense and want them.
Christine Feehan, any book of her books. I fell for the Carpathians, got captured by the ghost walkers, cheered for the drake sister, and then danced for all the other books. When each man said I love you to their heroine was a moment I’ll never forget. I love me some Feehan.
McKenna Jeffries’ Conquering Jazz when Reese told Jazz those glorious words. This isn’t pubbed yet but I am waiting to read the pubbed version. From the opening proposition to the end it was heat, passion, family and of course seduction. {Quiver} The Hamlin men make me hot for the rest of the series.
L.A. Banks’ Vampire Huntress series. Carlos loving Damali. Heck they knew they loved each other but things kept them apart time and time again. Yet when they got together they brought the house down. Now they are committed I love it. And I can’t even get started on the other characters. The entire series is so deep on so many levels.
Sherrilyn Kenyon’s Hunter Legends Series. Men not expecting the one who not only find her but it’s not as they expected. Love is never said easily for the hunters but when they do look out. Bring on the year of Acheron. I’m waiting for Ash’s book with greedy anticipation.
Brenda Jackson, any of her books and series. The Madaris Family Series was my first love affair with Brenda’s books which continues as she brings out another book. Then the rest of her books encompass me. All the men in Brenda’s books treat a woman like a lady and love them with a fierceness that is breathtaking. When they say I love you they mean it and you feel it.
Francis Ray’s the Grayson’s of New Mexico and Taggart/Falcon Series. The men are dynamic with so much passion, closeness and brings you in. I love you to them isn’t easy but when they give in look out and be prepared for a lifetime.
Laurell K. Hamilton’s Anita Blake series. Jean-Claude declaration of love to his ma petite – Anita – was about the hottest thing.
Laurell K. Hamliton’s Merry Gentry series. The Darkness (shiver). Oh gosh I think I had a moment. Gimmie a sec to clear my head. {a moment of silence) Okay I’m good if I don’t say his name again. When you know who told Merry he loved her. Not saying his name does not help. I still have the moment. God I need a drink. I’m going to have to chance it. The Darkness (shudder) in all his glory of love. I luv me some.
Whew I have to stop after that one. There are so many more I could go on and on. There it is my list of fav moment’s of love. Now come and share what are you fav moments of love in books.
Something New
Monday, January 21st, 2013This year I am working on trying some new things. Getting outside my comfort zone. It is fun, exhilarating and scary all at once but I love the feeling. I love to challenge myself to do and try new things. I already have some ideas of the new things I will try but for others I haven’t decided yet. Something new is a good way of getting your heart racing and mind clear.
Another new is the new plans on my 2013 writing calendar, which is already filled with wonderful stories I plan to write this year. I have lots of plans for books I want to write this year and my mind is filled and I can’t wait to get started. But…I will. One of my something new this year is I promised myself I will take January off from writing anything new. This month will be all about relaxing and then the last week or so I will be preparing for my upcoming writing projects. Taking a break is something I’ve been lax in doing lately so 2013 and going forward I have made my writing schedule so I can do that and still keep the writing plans I have.
2013 is the year of something new.
Happy 2013!
Tuesday, January 1st, 2013Happy 2013! Here’s to a safe, a little bit naughty and most off all fun filled year.
As usual I’m feeling lots of anticipation for 2013. Very excited about the opportunities coming.
This year I am reaffirming my one main goal from which all the others flow out. The main goal:
Write.
So get ready for a sizzling year. (grin)
What are your goals/resolutions for 2013?
