Happy Friday!
It’s been a stormy week here in Florida. Just think, if I were in Minnesota, that might be snow…
Sigh.
Okay, let’s start with the FREE Christmas book from ME. One Last Storm. It’s free for one more week via this newsletter,
So, I did a silly thing…
Happy Tuesday!
I was a girl on the go last week. Sort of like this munchkin, with her travel bag and sporty glasses.
I signed up and attended a conference for film producers, screenwriters and other film makers in Orlando. (Why? Well…stay tuned. )
Except, I did a silly thing.
I know I’m ridiculous…
It’s officially Friday, which means I’m about to do something my Minnesota upbringing is demanding—I’m making Creamy White Chicken Chili (thanks, Half Baked Harvest!)
Truth is, I’m in desperate need of sweater weather vibes. Never mind that it’s still 85 degrees outside and the palm trees aren’t turning lovely shades of yellow,
I’m being watched…
I’m loving being back in Florida while we wait for our Minnesota home to be rebuilt (and our newest granddaughter to be born!)
However, I’m being stalked.
By this guy:
And this GUY:
In fact…they’re everywhere! Every night we settle into our hot tub, and apparently that’s the cue for our frog stalkers to gather for the show.
Where were we?
**First, an apology for all the typos in my last note. I was clearly suffering from heat-induced grammatical stroke**
So, last we chatted, I was sweltering in Florida, with no Air Conditioning.
Oh wait, no, HUBS was sweltering. I was at a writer’s conference with this cutie. (Sarah, who wrote THIS book,
Wait, the journey continues…
I know it’s been a hot minute since we last chatted – mostly because after the Great Flood of our Northern Home, we spend the week packing all our belonging…
And then we got into the car and headed south…
And arrived in Iowa in time to read stories to this cutie…
All.
And then this happened…
I know – it’s been a couple weeks since we last chatted. I was over in Greece, taking a nice vacation upon the deep blue Aegean waters. (if you didn’t see the pictures, head over to my personal Facebook page! Lots of goodies there).
My daughter, (who you heard from last week), jokes that whenever we leave (and she watches our dogs),
The Happy Place!
Surprise! It’s Me, Sarah, Susie‘s assistant!
As I’m sure you know by now, Susie is off in her happy place: Traveling the world with her Hubs while eating gyros and ice cream.
And while Susie is off in her happy place, I’m in mine:
That’s right! That’s FOUR dogs.
While I’m away…this is happening!
Can you believe summer is almost over? (insert crying here!) We celebrated last week with this gorgeous charcuterie board! Just in time for me to trade that in for the ULTIMATE charcuterie board—Greece! (Which is where I am right now!)
Hubs and I are off with some dear friends on an incredible Mediterranean getaway.
Loove me some fooootball!
Football has started!
If you know me, you know I love me my football –
Probably because I had two sons who played football, and spent hours upon hours for years upon years driving them to games. And then of course they had to play basketball and then run track and…
But in truth,
