“It is now highly feasible to take care of everybody on Earth at a higher standard of living than any have ever known… It is a matter of converting the high technology from weaponry to livingry.”

Book

“Back in a Spell” by Lana Harper

This is the third book in the series that started with “Payback’s a Witch”. I still love the first one best, but I enjoyed visiting with these Thistle Grove characters again. The magic was fun, and I liked the parts that describe their witchbond which is similar to what my MCs experience in my novel. I hope my version will be as well-written as hers.

Best Thing of the Week

Date night consisted of watching college football and making a fabulous dinner together. We were both having a hormonal day so dinner could have been a total catastrophe, but it wasn’t. We worked well as a team on the most complicated meal we’ve had so far, and it turned out so good!

Sadly the Vols lost to the Gators, but the Buffs won The Rocky Mountain Showdown in an exciting double-overtime game. Well done Coach Prime!

Yes, I’m a Nerd

IYKYK and if you don’t, no amount of lengthy discourse will help. The Silence is missing though.

Why I Love Living Here

I laughed and told Tennessee that this was one of the reasons I loved living here. Then she told me about Barbie (as in Bar-B-Q) our neighborhood porcine resident. I have not seen her yet, but I’ll keep an eye out the next time I’m out and about.

Five of Cups – Upright

Sometimes the universe has a strange sense of humor. It’s dark, morbid, and needs to be bitch-slapped too.

I’ve really been struggling with my physical health and feeling a bit of despair and grief over the loss of my mobility. At the end of this week, I’m supposed to be going to see Pink and Brandi and I have no idea if I am physically capable of walking from the shuttle to our seats. I’ve asked Tennessee if she’d be upset if I had her take someone else. She is mulling it over.

While I’m wallowing in this feeling after pulling the card, my son calls me in a total panic. I had just texted him telling him he needed to get an emissions test before we can renew his plates. He tells me he hit something in the road yesterday and the damage that was done may cause it not to be able to pass an emissions test. Like others his age, he can barely make ends meet without having to get his car fixed, but he can’t not have a car because he drives it to make money. Panic was a natural reaction.

It’s going to be an uncomfortable week I think.

Closing Words

May you always be the one who finds joy in the little things.

Have a great week!

Be well, my friends.
