I’ve had this photo forever, taken at Balboa Park, San Diego, but never shared it. I have her standing in the grass with her ducklings, but this is the one that really shows a family together…mostly. Come on, little Duckling. You can make it.
I managed to get to 37K yesterday on Protecting the White Bear so only 3K short of my goal. Monday and Wednesday’s are normally my off days as I’m taking care of my grandson and picking up my granddaughter at school. But I don’t have them Mon-Wed because of the holiday today and school closures because of winter storm warnings.
Maybe I can get back on track! I’m going to give it my best shot.
Have a great day!

“Giving new meaning to the term alpha male where fantasy is reality.”
There were so many birds on the New Hampshire lake, I felt like I was at a birding reserve! They had loons, geese, robins, sparrows, blackbirds, and “fishing” birds, small, that skimmed the top of the water. I just wished I’d had my longer lens because they were soooooo far away, it was hard for me to get a really great shot, but it was fun watching them. And we loved listening to the loons. One actually splashed down in front of us while we were paddling, but I didn’t have a camera on me at the time. I so wished I could have gotten some shots of it as it took off, slapping its webbed feet on the water.
Well, I have both the grandkids today, but feeling better, yay!! And Wolf Bound is available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Apple, and Google Play. When I was publishing it, I forgot to finish publishing Kobo, so it should be available today. Still waiting on the print cover from the artist to finalize that. Also, I posted the next books coming up, available for preorder and I still am working on Highland Wolf. I’m nearly at 37K. Yay!
Wolf Bound
Red wolf Kira Westwood is on a mission with the United Shifter Force where she’s trying to track down kidnappers who are gray wolf shifters. What she doesn’t expect is to find a wounded gray wolf—shifter type—who’s an innocent bystander and the boy who has been taken hostage. Now her mission is complicated by leaps and bounds.
Fisher Greystoke can’t believe a walk in the national park has led to nearly being killed and meeting the prettiest red she-wolf he has ever met. But there’s no time for anything but helping her go after kidnappers and joining the United Shifter Force so he can get to know the red wolf a whole lot better while ensuring the rogue wolves don’t take them down first–permanently.
A romantic holiday vacation is just what these two wolves need to take their romance to the next level.
Arctic wolf shifters Sheri Whitmore and her boyfriend, Slade White, celebrate a festive Christmas at a cabin retreat in the forests of Minnesota. But when they run into unexpected trouble, Sheri and Slade will have to work together to put the danger to rest so they can enjoy their romantic holiday together.

I wanted to do more with this, but I have too many deadlines, so maybe later. I took the picture in a small town in Scotland that had a pretty pond and tons of birds. Really pretty. Love the bridge in the background. And I added the boat and woman.
Do you dream nice dreams? Mine seem to be nightmares. I dreamed my roof was a foot away from one of the sides of my house. Maybe because I was gluing things together that needed repaired the day before?
Anyway, baby’s coming and I’ve got to get going. Above: a picture of ducks at the Riverwalk, baby pointing to people way down below on the sidewalk and a crowned night heron, and a dream that a cougar was having that went awry.
I’m on the last 8 chapters today, but might not be able to get through all of them tonight after baby leaves.
Off to work! Hope your dreams are the stuff of…dreams, not nightmares!
It’s really important that I stay in my bear cave to finish the edits on this book. 70 pages to go. 130 done. BUT, it’s essential that I get some papers notarized, scanned, emailed, and fedexed. We’re under 2 flood river warnings and 1 flood river watch. The two are already a couple of feet over flood levels. I tried to run in last night to a post office to do the notary, but the roads were soooo badly flooded, I had to turn around, not sure I could even make it back. In retrospect, I wished I could have taken a picture, but I was too busy trying not to get hit or flood my engine.
I kept saying if they’d send the paperwork earlier, even a couple of hours earlier, we would have been fine. Nope. Had to send them in the middle of the downpour and by then, it was already too late.
So I’ve been trying to figure out another way I can get this notarized…a place nearer by will do it, IF they can even make it into work. It’s a non-essential type place so they might not. And IF I can even make it over there. We have continued rains for several hours. I can’t do anything until businesses open up at 8:30-9. So until then, I’m back to the bear cave while the thunder and lightning continues, and the rains keep coming down.
The ducks are probably laughing when they see all these cars stopped, trying to figure out if they can make it on the flooded roads. Lights flashing, they sit there, not sure what to do. Try to make it? Stall out their cars? Wait the storm out? The storm and the flood waters are not going away any time soon. Maybe tomorrow? But we have heavy rains through the weekend. Tow trucks have been out in numbers, towing cars stuck in the floodwaters.
I had to turn around while I watched a couple of other higher road vehicles plow through the water, the wet stuff as high as their headlights. I have a Ford Escape, the new models lower than the older ones, so the water was up to my headlights before I even reached the point where the water was even higher. I didn’t want to risk it. Vehicles riding lower than mine were in a real quandary. Two Suburbans sailed past me, idiots, not because they could, but because they were driving 10 mph over the speed limit as if to say ha! They could do it. There have been tons of accidents on the highways this morning, mostly due to the wet roads and flooding.
So I have to figure out this dilemma and figure out how to get it done without drowning myself in the process.
Hmmm, it sounds like the stuff for stories.
Have a super great day! Back to editing!!! 🙂
