Okay– at the bottom of the page, I’m going to have blog tour information for Beneath the Stain, so don’t just tune out when I start blathering, kk? So, in yarn news, it’s been sort of a big week– for one, I finished a project, and I really love it.  It’s going to Mary-my-Mary, because… Read More

(No purpose for this– just crackedme up!) I didn’t even mean to– the week just went that fast! So, on Sunday, a friend came by, (well, officially Squish’s friend’s mom, but yes, a real life, near my house friend for MEEEEE!!!)  and we chatted, and I mentioned dying my hair like I’ve been putting off… Read More

Someday, probably right after Squish goes to college, we are going to have one of those absurdly cool days in August– 78 degrees, some humidity, the occasional shower, and that day will fall on opening day for soccer. In the meantime, since the kids go back to school in mid-August, and opening day happens right… Read More

So, as you might have guessed, jury duty did not kill me, and neither did any of the really nice people there.  But I did have some interesting experiences–which just proves, I guess, that I really should get out once in a while! Anyway, some fun things that happened during my two days of aborted… Read More

It wasn’t until I got the summons in the mail that I really felt the pressure. I mean, what’s wrong with me?  I did the eight-three job, right?  I taught high school. I wasn’t always on time, but I was on time, mostly.  How did I manage then, but not now?  Why does it freak… Read More

The Bravery of Falling in Love Whee!  I’m so excited to be doing a post for the Read a Romance Month event.  I’d seriously like to thank Lucy Monroe for asking me aboard–she’d contacted me to say hello and to let me know she liked the work, but recommending me to participate in this was really amazing of… Read More

Heh heh– can you tell I have fun with the formatting of this feature?  You should– because I really like to make everybody’s titles pop.  I know when I have a new release, it sort of consumes me.  I great about it for weeks, and every bit of feedback, good and bad, just sort of… Read More

A–August is here! B– Boredom from summer vacation has almost set in! C–Crispy children returned from camping. D–Darn it, mom, the redhead needs sunblock ALWAYS! E– Everyone wants to be at the pool. F–Finally a summer blockbuster movie! G– Guardians of the Galaxy rocked! H–Heat, hot, hellacious, hurts, horrible, hate it in hades! (But hot… Read More

So, upon my return home, I have, once again, rediscovered the peace and quiet of an empty house. And remembered why I had four children in the first place. Boy, it’s lonely here without the short people.  Mate has been working late and consumed with soccer, and although he makes an effort not to neglect… Read More

Do I look bohemian?  I should– because seriously, that was as match as I got this weekend, which sort of sucks, because it was kind of a big deal. We went to San Francisco this weekend so Mate could run the half-marathon.  It was, for us, the equivalent of all the missed date-nights of the… Read More
