    A Festivus for The Rest Of Us

    What’s Jack up to? Though I wanted to sleep in this Saturday but Jack was having none of it and had the DH and I up pretty early pushing his strong little body against one side of the bed, shake, shake,  then, scratch, tap, tap, running to the other side to push some more until we gave in and he got to go out. Once again we know who’s in charge here. LOL.

    Thanks to all of you who read my work, commented and voted for me in the Mills & Boon New Voices contest. It’s so hard to step out and be judged. If you haven’t had a chance to read and be all judgy there is still time. Grab a cup of tea and head on over here now. Thanks.

     

    On a lighter note…finally a rally I can get behind well just about any of us can that is if I can get off the couch. I love you Jon Stewart.

    New Soul

    Though we know this song from being a Mac and I’m all PC I still love it and the video. I think we all have the opportunity to be New Souls inside.

    Happy Friday!

    Super Duper Cute

    What’s Jack up to? Well now that school is back in session it’s back to me and Jack for the better part of the day. So we are bonding once again. Here is is trying to get me off Twitter and back on track with my writing. My own writing coach. Ok ,Jack, I get your point and I’m getting right back to work.

     

    With school back in so is my afternoon drive time with the DD doing the dance thing. And that means the fight over the car radio is back on. Every once in a while we can agree on a cute little diddy. Enjoy.

    Making Funny Outta Crazy

    Thanks to Ted.com for this wonderfully funny video from comedian Maz Jobrani that shows how we are more alike than different and yeah I happened to be in Times Square on that day too along with some friends. Small world and it’s getting smaller every day.

    Hope you have a good one.

    They are the world

    Deidra from Jumping Tandem asked over at her blog yesterday “where have you seen God lately?” And not a few hours after reading that I was at my niece Maddie’s preschool moving up ceremony surrounded by Joy and for me the spirit of God. Just click the link below and look at this radiant, beautiful, funny, fearless face singing her heart out and I dare you not to smile. (Oh and the boy next to her is so not having it. LOL)

    Metro Memories

    What’s Jack up to? Poor Jack is trying to catch a breeze just like me. It’s too hot for the dog to do anything but chill where he can.

    Happy Monday! So summer is officially here. Today the dear twins go to their summer job orientation (Yay for kids working) and I start on getting into my summer writing swing. Let’s hope I swing big.

    I hope you had a good weekend. Me? I heard this song well after midnight on Saturday night while playing Blackjack  waaaayyy past my bedtime and it brought back so many memories. Yeah, it was a fun weekend.

    Lifted we have a Wild Winner

    What’s Jack up to? As I write this Jack is tip tapping around. His little nails making lots of noise on the wood floor. Though he just got a spiffy new summer cut I think the nails could use more help. Or maybe I could use more Patience.

     Thanks to random.org the winner of the copy of Wendy Toliver’s Lifted is….

    Maria Geraci!! Congratulations Maria. Now for those of you that don’t know Maria let me introduce her. Maria is a talented author herself of 2 novels  Bunco Babes Go Wild and Bunco Babes Tell All. You can visit Maria’s site here to find out more about them and her next book The Boyfriend Club which comes out in December. I can’t wait to read it.

    In random music news you may or may not want to hear or care about. I’m all about listening to the new Erykah Badu CD. Today I need a Window Seat. I won’t post the her naked statement on the Dallas Mall video here though I do think I get it.  Maybe? If I do. I like it. I will share this song which I can’t stop singing.
