Happy New Year’s Eve!

Dec31

I finally managed to get 2000 words on Protecting the White Bear, yay! and I’m on a roll. I was just trying to post everything for New Year’s Eve, so now I’m off to get some writing done!

Have a great time, stay safe, and be ready–the new year is coming! Ready or not!

Wait–How Hot is it Going to Be?

Dec30

There is no figuring out Texas weather. It was freezing yesterday morning—for us. And then today, I dressed up warmly to take the dogs out, and it’s really warm. Today, it’s supposed to be 80. This is still winter, isn’t it?

Flowers are blooming like crazy–which I love. Tomato plants are popping up in my flowerbeds. Um, I put compost from my compost bin into the flowerbeds, and low and behold, tomato seeds, warm weather, sun, and rain–make for tomato plants. lol

Okay, I’m off to get busy.

Hope your weather isn’t half as crazy as ours!

If You Ever Feel Like Things Are Off Kilter…

Dec29

Maybe they are!!!

My goal today, besides playing on Baldur’s Gate 3–and taking down the metal guard factory and freeing all the slaves, is to send Christmas photos to the kids that I’d taken and to work on another series idea. I had another one yesterday, so that makes 2. I need to make up three.

Forget New Year’s goals. I try to have goals for every day—like writing—and get them done. Gardening–planted onion and garlic seeds yesterday between thunderstorms and tornado warnings. I need to move a rosebush, so hope to do that today.

I haven’t played on BG3 since last Christmas, so I’m getting close to the end…or closer. Then I have a new game, the new Dragon Age, but I’ll probably hold off on starting it until I get some of my writing done!!! I have to admit, it’s been a nice break from writing. I needed that!

I’m off to look for those photos and start sharing so I can begin playing and brainstorming for another series idea! My goal should be the series idea first, but I’ve spent weeks thinking about this, and I just finally came up with the other idea yesterday. So, who knows how long it will take for me to think of something else that is totally unique?

Hope your world isn’t off-kilter today!

Sleepy Bear

Dec28

After all the goings-ons, do you feel like this?

Time for a nap!

I took this picture of him at the Cameron Park Zoo in Waco. Normally, I’d get a nice backend shot, so it was fun to see him facing me for a change. lol

I’m off to work on something.

Hope you’re hanging in there!

Before the New Year

Dec26

Honeybee on Salvia on Christmas Eve. Really warm. We had 3 1/2″ of rain on Christmas Eve.

So this morning, I had planned to clean out files before the New Year and organize my Christmas decorations. While I was pulling out files, the file cabinet began tilting toward me. Now, I have Christmas decorations and a big heavy glass vase on top, and I’m trying to push the cabinet back while catching everything.

Didn’t catch everything. The glass vase was a goner, shattered into a billion pieces on the tile floor. I’ve picked up the bigger pieces, swept up, vacuumed, and mopped, and still am finding glass. It shot up onto a side table and across the room to about twelve feet. So, THAT was not part of what I had planned to do this morning. lol

Anyway, I wanted to take down the decorations and clean everything really well, and then I’ll be all set to start on another book. Oh, wow, birds are on the feeders, and it started to pour rain suddenly.

And now it’s thundering.

I am off to finish up my work and then play some of Baldur’s Gate.

Hope your Christmas Day after is going great!

Merry Christmas!

Dec25

Hope your holidays are the best!

Off to celebrate with the kids in a bit. We had wild storms last night, but when I took the dogs out last night, something had torn up my patio chair cushions. Bizarre. A cougar shifter or wolf shifter that wasn’t mentioned in one of my stories?

They were torn like this on both chairs and the backs, just bizarre. A roaming neighborhood cat?

A mystery. Maybe to add to a story. Just a thought!

Hope your holidays are the best!!!

A Little Christmas Whimsy

Dec23

Hope your holidays are bright! I have to do some last-minute shopping this morning.

Got back into Baldur’s Gate 3 last night as a treat from working so hard all year. 🙂

Got to run!

Polar Bear Napping

Dec22

Whenever I visited the Omaha zoo, the polar bear would be napping. He was beautiful, but he was also very old. So, on the last visit, he had gone to polar bear heaven. I loved seeing him, even if he was a tired old bear.

I finished Stolen Highland Dreams and was working on….ta da! Cleaning my house.

Not very exciting, I know. But it had to be done. Dogs are washed and combed out.

And I haven’t played it in months, but I might even get in an hour of playing my game!

Have a terrific day!

More Polar Bears Coming–Shifter Style!

Dec19

One of the triplet brothers’ stories must be told next. Protecting the White Bear is my next project to work on!

I’m working on proofing Stolen Highland Hearts today.

Stolen Highland Dreams
The Highlanders, Book 9

Coming March 6, 2024
Finding a safe haven for her remaining family is wrought with peril.

Ella has been hiding in the Caledonian Forest with her brother and cousin since her would-be suitor massacred her family. A new lord now occupies her family’s castle and celebrates with her suitor. Can she convince MacTavish to take them in before it’s too late despite losing her voice and her enemy searching for her in the woods? Or will he turn her over to her enemy?

Dashiell MacTavish has heard tales of the wondrous creature that protects the deer in his forest and is determined to capture the mysterious and elusive woman to uncover her true identity. However, the more he learns about her, the more he understands the danger she faces, and he is prepared to confront any threat to keep her safe.

If you like Lyndsay Sands Highland romances, you’ll enjoy the Highlander Series.

Be sure to grab your copy of the next installment of the Highlanders in Stolen Highland Dreams.

I was out front, clipping back weed trees and blackberry vines, and other thorny vines. But now it’s time to get back to work. I’m going to start proofing Stolen Highland Dreams.

Hope your day is dreamy!
