Freaky Friday?

What a freaking weird week! 

I don't even know if I have any feel good beyond the normal...

But here's the list of weird...

1. The heat. Come on, man! 

2. The wildfire smoke. Holy crap is that eerie! And gross. And smelly. 

3. The parasitic diarrhea. What the hell is that about? 

4. I saw a guy carrying a fridge on his back by the post office. He was just walking down the sidewalk. 

5. I also saw an old guy taking his pants off on my way back from the post office. I didn't look. 

6. The go-cart that pulled out in front of me and almost got run over by a bus on my way to the post office. 

7. Also on my way to the post office...a guy dressed head-to-toe in a white, furry jumpsuit. Okay, it's not as hot today, but??

8. The desolate wasteland that was the office on Friday. There were only four people in the whole building after a certain time (and I was one of them). It was creepy and weird. 

I can't think of any more weird at the moment. 

Bring on the weekend! 

Behave! 

Weekend Wrap Up and All of That...

We had a weekend, right? 

I kinda don't feel like we did. Yeah, we got the housework, shopping, meal prep done and I kind of slept in one day. But it went so fast! 

We did have a great time at a friend's pool party on Saturday. The pool was glorious and so was the conversation and shenanigans.

Other than that... meh. I don't know. 

I didn't get any writing time this weekend. Which sucks, but there's nothing I can do it about it. 

It's going to be hot again this week. Yeah, I know it's summer. Yeah, I know it's July. 

That's all I have. 

Behave! 

Redemption: Sector One

Is back up on Amazon! 

Isaac Hawes lost everyone he loved in the government's attempt to take over their lives, but losing his child to their evil drained the last of his mercy. Or so he thought. When he receives one of their soldiers as a debt payment, his last flare of compassion won’t allow the woman to die. When Casey awakens with no memories except her name, he sees good in her he didn’t expect. Through Casey's self-recovery, he learns she’s the soldier that kidnapped his child. He has to decide if he can overcome his anger to trust the woman he healed, not the soldier who hurt him, and decide if it's worth the risk to use her military-induced enhancements to help him rescue other kidnapped children.

Casey used to be a soldier. Now she doesn’t know what or who she is. She doesn't even have a last name. Her slowly returning memories of the things she was forced to do devastate her, and she believes her only route to redemption is to convince Isaac to let her help rescue the children everyone thought were dead. As she learns who she is without the government's control, Casey discovers she's not the monster they forced her to be. She can only hope her newfound sense of self is enough to save her.

Together, they have to fight to figure out what is really going on and how to fix it. Through that, they discover mutual goals and a connection that goes beyond the state of their lives. Neither wants to explore or accept it, but to solve their problems, they have no choice.

Behave! 

Weekend Wrap Up...on Monday!

Thank goodness for the cool air that came with the storms. Except the storms were damaging for a lot of people. There are trees down everywhere and many people are still without power. That all sucks. 

The hot water heater has been installed and is working well. We had to make a trip to the hardware store and almost had to go a second time but found what we needed at home after a lengthy search. The whole thing took a lot longer than expected. The basement floor is almost dry now though. 

Redemption is just about ready to go up. Well, it is ready but I haven't had time to get it done yet. Soon. I'll share the cover soon! 

Other than that... I did get writing done this weekend, which was awesome. 

That's it... I don't have much else you'd care about... Ha!

Behave! 

Hotter Than Hades!

Mother of all that's holy, it's freaking HOT!!! 

I know we're all in the same boat and I know you hate it as much as I do. The stupid air conditioners aren't keeping up. Sleeping is impossible. The flowers are wilted and the sun burns your skin within seconds. 

I'm sad we're not camping but at the same time, I'm not. There is no freaking way I would be a nice person if I was sitting out in this heat. And my poor old gal would not have had a good time. She'll go out to do her business but immediately wants back inside. 

In any event, we got the camper taken care of. Tanks have been dumped (it was borrowed last weekend and the place to dump was closed until yesterday) and we dropped it off for inspection. Ran to two stores and now we are home until Sunday unless we decide to run to The Wilds to visit. That will depend on how the installation of the new water heater goes and how hot it is. 

Sunday is K5's Sweet 16 party. She already has her learner's permit, which is awesome. I'm so excited to see where this kid ends up. 

Redemption has been sent for formatting. I hope to have it up in the next few weeks. I'm not sure which one I'm doing next. I need to do some new writing, so we'll see...

That is all. 

Stay cool!

Behave! 

Feel Good Friday?

Holy Hellfire! It's hot! 

So hot that we've decided not to head to The Wilds this weekend. As much as we want to give the old gal one last camp weekend, she would not do well in the scorch and I don't want her in the creek at all. 

It sucks but it is what it is. 

And the new hot water heater is on the back porch waiting to be installed. I'm not sure how we crammed it into our vehicle but we managed. I had to sit in the backseat but it was way better than having to borrow a truck. 

On the writing front...well, it's been non-existent this week. The most I've done in the last two weeks is a critique, and go through Redemption for self publishing. I need to send it to my friend who will format it for me. The cover is ready, too. I've just been slacking this week. 

Well, not really. It's been a rough week in so very many ways that have nothing to do with the heat. 

All I know is I'm tired in every single way you can be tired. 

That is all. 

Behave! 

Oof! Long Time No See...

Or something like that!

Sorry for the silence. 

I don't have a lot to report. 

Just trying to keep my head above water with everything going on. 

And it's going to be HOT going forward. Can't say I appreciate that but I'm glad air conditioning is a thing. 

That's all. 

Behave!
