I took this photo a while back. I love mushrooms. I guess they remind me of a fairy land.
Beautiful morning! Felt like 71 and it was cold to me. Which was great! I opened all the windows to blow the cool air inside which was cooler than inside the house. It’s still going to be 97 today without the index factor, so still hot.
I took my grandson for a stroller walk, weeded some out front while he was in his stroller talking away to me, came in and became extremely nauseated. I rarely ever throw up, so that wasn’t fun. I sent baby home. I haven’t eaten anything since dinner at 6 with the kids yesterday and no one else is sick, so not sure what is going on.
I’m off to rest and hopefully feel better.
Have a great day!

I felt like I slept my whole day away. Storms woke me at 5, I didn’t go to sleep until about 11 after working on edits, managed 3,000 words on Wolf on the Prowl and another 350 on Bear of a Halloween.
So then our electric came back on at 5:45, and I reset the oven clock, went back to bed, and the next thing I know it’s nearly 9 a.m. How did that happen? Poor dogs. But they were good. They didn’t bug me to go out. But also, the electric must have gone out again only I slept through it that time because my oven clock is all messed up again. We didn’t get much rain. Maybe a 1/4″. It really poured, so I was hoping for more.
Birds are happily at the bird feeders wondering what took me so long to come out with their food. lol
I’m an early bird too, so I know how they feel.
Have a happy day! I’m so glad I’m making a little progress on Wolf on the Prowl and Bear of a Halloween! And Baldur’s Gate.

Now that I have a working title, Wolf on the Prowl, I began writing the red wolf story and have 4,000 words on it! Only 76,000 to go. Woohoo!! At least it’s a beginning.
Have to run! We have another scorcher today and then hopefully it starts to cool down from 105 to 99 for the rest of the week. We’ll see.
Have a wonderful day!

A GOOD WOLF IS HARD TO FIND–Roxie Wolff’s story coming in March 5, 2024
Agent Dylan Powers tracks the bad guys right to Roxie Wolff’s ski lodge and finds love where he least expected…
Fish and Wildlife Service agent Dylan Powers is on a mission in Silver Town to catch four men hunting illegally and put them behind bars. With his heightened wolf senses, he’s right on their trail, but the hunters know he’s coming. Suddenly, Dylan finds himself in deep trouble, nearly drowned and left to die, until he’s rescued by a beautiful she-wolf.
When local ski lodge owner Roxie Wolff first found Dylan, her curiosity got the better of her. Who was this handsome wolf and how did he end up in such dire straits? Things start to heat up between Roxie and Dylan as she takes him into her home to help him recover. But with the hunters still on the run, all of Silver Town is at risk, and Roxie and Dylan team up with the Silver Town sheriff’s department to take them down before anyone else gets hurt.

“The chemistry crackles off the page.” —Publishers Weekly for Heart of the Wolf
“Essential reading for werewolf romance fans.” —Booklist for Alpha Wolf Need Not Apply
“Spear delivers a layered suspense story.” —Library Journal for Night of the Billionaire Wolf
In the meantime, I’m still working on Bear of a Halloween that is now up to 63K, no longer a short novel since I have quite a ways to go on it to finish, and okay, so I’m stuck on the DEA story. They always change my title names so I don’t bother to come up with one, normally, any more. But I need one to get me started on the story. lol
A title for a red wolf DEA Special Agent story. How can I get so stuck before I’ve even written the first word of the story. 🙂
Okay, off to work.
Have a super day!!!

Yeah, I know, you think the birds drop the seeds and voila, there’s a new sunflower, but when you’re not looking, the sunflower fairy comes and plants her garden wherever she pleases.
I’m still working on Bear of a Halloween, but I’ve got to switch to the red wolf story and get it started. So this morning at 4:30, I was lying in bed and seeing the scene unfold before my eyes. Now I need to write it down in a hurry before baby gets here and I forget the whole thing.
Have a wonderful day!!!

We had a burst of rain yesterday! And the sun was shining. I was thrilled to get a little rain. But it’s still mucho hot out. This morning at 7, it felt like 95. And no rain in the foreseeable future or any cool down soon.
I was playing around with this scrap art this morning, and still working on Bear of a Halloween. Managed 2,000 words yesterday, and got stuck in a fight with creatures in the Underdark in Baldur’s Gate 3. With the goblins massing at the front door, I was able to find another way in, and the big boss was just back on his altar, so I wasn’t facing the swarm there. But to get to the back door, I had to fight a swarm out front.
But I got stuck in the Underdark when I eliminated I think there were 3 of the guys I needed to take care of, but one other is invisible. She wouldn’t fight, so I couldn’t figure out where she was. I clicked on her profile, but I don’t have anything to toss around to break her invisibility concentration. I tried using fire spells and arrows, but that’s tedious when you have no idea where she is. Sooooo, I’m hoping after I explore more of the Underdark and return, she won’t be invisible and I can finish that quest.
In the meantime, I’m working on my own story!
Hope your day is fun-filled!

Space exploration brought a space traveler into a world of dinosaurs in an alternate reality or another planet that isn’t as advanced as us–or at least that we like to think we are. What if man had to live by his wits? The raptor reflected in his space helmet is looking for a meal.
Can the astronaut figure out a way to survive?
I’m still running around the first part of Baldur’s Gate 3, though I managed to eradicate the goblin problem. Before I forge ahead, I was picking up stuff I could sell and trying to fortify myself for the underdark. My son said you could explore the mountain pass first, so I’m thinking of trying that. He said he had to go back and do that. So not sure.
If you use the worm to help you control someone’s thoughts, is that a bad thing? I leveled up to 5 and have so much more power, for now. I swore I missed things more than I hit things when I was at level 4 and only had one chance to use a weapon. Sooo, things are looking up.
I’m off to work on a story for a little bit, then back to adventuring.
Hope your day is grand!

I still can’t believe the phone can take such great shots of it.
Well, I’m off to write. Managed 1,000 words yesterday. I’m nearly at 58K, which makes it a short novel instead of a novella, so it’s nearly triple in size. I’m happy. It tells more of a story then.
Hope your weekend is going great. We have more of the same heat…and on and on and on. When I write the DEA red wolf story, it’s in the summer, so it will be easier to write than when there’s snow on the ground and we’re sweltering in the heat!

Carnivorous plant. Hmm, maybe that’s how I could get rid of my gnat problem!
Taking my son to the airport and he’ll be back to Okinawa hours and hours and hours from now.
And I need to get some writing done because I didn’t get anything done yesterday. But I do have a three-day weekend to work. We had a blast though and that’s all that matters!
Okay, off to feed the dogs and birds before we run.
Have a fun day!

Tonight it’s supposed to be its fullest but I took a picture of it yesterday afternoon with my phone and was amazed how well it turned out.
We saw the new Indiana Jones movie, loved it, but I’m ready for them to quit having the old guys from the original movies in the new ones. Let’s get some new blood into the films. And while we’re on the subject, can we please have some new stories? Why the same old stories regurgitated forever?
We had a lovely day and a great dinner and ice cream afterwards. Today, we’re running errands with baby if he’s not sick. My son can’t get some things in Japan, so we’re going to do some shopping.
I finally, as much as I hated to, removed DAZ3D from my computer. I had like 36-65 GB left on my hard drive and couldn’t even create anything with it any more, couldn’t play Baldor’s Gate that finally was fully released–which needed 87 GB or so. When I removed DAZ3D, it freed up 500 GB!
Okay, so with my son here and the baby here today, and still picking up my granddaughter from school every afternoon, and having dinners with family, I’m not getting very far on the story. NOT to mention, I started playing Baldor’s Gate in between a few times, and ooooooh, so much fun. I haven’t played games in probably two years. But it’s all worth it. Life is too short not to have fun!
Well, before my grandson gets here, I’m doing some edits on the story, and hope to maybe get close to 1,000 today.
Have beautiful day!
