I'm back

I had a lot of personal stuff going on and I temporarily stopped writing and blogging. Everything is good and I'm writing up a storm.. so now I'm going to get back to my blogs.

As much as I love the concept, I have come to realize that I just cannot keep up with the scavenger hunts. I hope to be able to add them back again sometime in the future.

My intention is to create a couple puzzles each week and add one or two new and interesting puzzles from other sources weekly. Feel free to yell at me if I don't keep up with this. LOL.

Puzzles is my hobby.. but I'm a writer, so I tend to get consumed with that and don't take the time for fun stuff.

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving Subscribers & Readers :)

I hope this Thanksgiving, you and your family will find you are blessed as you think on all that you have to be thankful for.

I am thankful for many things...

1. The newest addition to my family, a second granddaughter was born in September. And I was there for her birth.

2. My youngest sister has come back into our lives after years of estrangement.

3. My son-in-law was able to come home from Afghanistan for the birth of his daughter and being able to hug him and see his face was a huge blessing.

4. My two year old granddaughter is the joy of my life and she feeds my soul.

5. My 14 year old daughter is growing up into a wise, talented and interesting young lady.

6. My 16 year old, who is mature beyond her years, is being a good friend of mine.. what all mothers want of their daughters as they grow older..

7. My 22 year old daughter is finally (lol) thinking before she acts and she comes to me for advice and since she is no longer hormonal, she actually enjoys my company (LOL)

8. I'm writing my first novel and it is coming along great! I'm participating in NaNoWriMo.org's annual writing event through the month of November. I am no where near completing the challenge, but I am proud of my accomplishments thus far. I have learned so much through this process and noveling is no longer scary to me. I'm planning on finding a literary agent and seeking publication once this novel is completed.

9. I've finally embraced that my work is writing. I'm working towards writing daily online content articles, attempting to keep up with my blogs and find myself encouraged to write further novels.

10. My husband, who works so hard for too little money and shoulders the financial burdens of this household. Without his support of my writing, I would not have the peace needed to continue.
