For More Info on BE Society and Our July Writing Prompts Click here :) I am pre-writing my posts and as of writing this post, I hate to admit but I haven't read anything this month! How Crazy random and sad is that? I am the gal with a million books Regular & E! I am however planning to do the Trial of the Amazon Kindle Library thingy that they just announced, so hopefully I will be able to change my tune when it comes to reading. Actually.. one of the reasons I am pre-writing these posts involves me having more time to read :) I will let you all know how it goes! I know that the Amazon thingy doesn't have a lot of the books I am looking for but hopefully they will expand and in the mean time it looks like there are lots of awesome choices to choose from. I know that I generally read the teen books and just in that category alone it is up in the thousands ..>will be nice to expand my horizons a little bit at the same time and read some new stuff :) I have the gift or the … [Read more...]
the hodge podges
Hey There! Yesterday was a hodge podge day where I was into a million things but didn't really accomplish a whole lot! I also was a lazy bum and slept in! Today I am trying to make up for it! I was trying to thwart my mother from visiting but I don't think I am going to be able to be successful lol. She only comes over when I am flat out up to my eyes in stuff to do.. If i was sitting here bored out of my mind she wouldn't come at all lol ... It is all good, I suppose I could use a bit of a break! I did of course get up when David left for work.. I have been cleaning out old lists and fine tuning them and writing a few posts and what not here an there and all that kind of thing! I am def. fueled by coffee today lol. I have been working on pitches and BE group stuff and .. a review! The review is my main goal and I am hoping to have it up today or tomorrow because I have one right behind it that I need to get done as well. They aren't hard and I have done quite a bit on each of … [Read more...]

29/31 Writing Challenge with @thebesociety -Balance #besociety #bejulychallenge
For more info about BE, our Writing Challenge & more click here :) Well to me these things all kind of tie into each other! One thing that I know that I do that helps is I try to not be blogging after David gets home from work! I might be online on BE facebook group or finishing something up randomly but as far as sitting and writing posts and really concentrating on online stuff... I try to NOT do it unless he is spending time with his brother or playing a game on his gaming system. I try to work out where evenings are for us to watch t.v and relax :) Though...as I say I am never far away from the computer so if I want to be on it is not an issue or anything I just try to be more available to him during those times .. or at least for a few hours after he first gets home or even by going to bed early and just working from the ipad. It not only helps me and him spend time together it helps me calm down and relax and stuff like that. I also tend to not do a lot of these things on … [Read more...]
I can tell it is monday!
Hey Everyone! Well yesterday was spent watching copious amounts of t.v and not much else, but I am fine with that! I am really hoping that ONE weekend I can get to Boone before the end of summer! I know I have been saying it a while but it s bad when you are dreaming about shopping in the Boone walmart ha ha! That is where I buy all my appstate goodies for the most part and I really could use more shirts and a new hoodie for the winter. I am half tempted to borrow my moms car one day and go myself while david is at work or something lol...and I HATE driving! I have always found that trip to be relaxing and a fun drive though .. maybe because it reminds me of the good ole days or I have made that trip so many times...*sigh* We did go eat at the Pizza buffet, but I ended up just doing wings and the salad bar this time. I really really like the other pizza buffet that is about 10 minutes away but by the time we would have got ready and went up there it would have been over because … [Read more...]
