When we last chatted, I was diving in to catch up on work and writing after abandoning my characters in a blizzard in Alaska to head north and hang with these two cuties.
They just warm my heart.
I emerged two days later, manuscript finished, to go for a celebratory dinner on the beach with Hubs (at our favorite restaurant – Squid Lips!
Happy Friday! Free book in the PS.
BUT first, it’s been a bit of a crazy week. You may or may not have noticed that there was no Tuesday note.
That’s because my sweet daughter-in-law went into labor on Sunday afternoon. I missed the initial phone call, and about 30 mins later,
Happy Hot Tuesday! We had a fun weekend hanging out with our grandson…it was HOT…so we cooled down the tub and made it into a swimming pool. Here’s our race car driver crashing into his Pops.

Happy Tuesday! Let’s start with this sweet snapshot from Sunday’s beach day with some (not all!) of my favorite people.

Happy Friday! I’m back from my travels, into the warmth of Florida (and it’s a gorgeous 70+ out today!)
