October Bash~

Hey, y'all,

Long time no speak!! I've been real busy with school, work, & home stuff and haven't had time to come on here. I probably wouldn't have posted anything for September anyway, because writing has been so slow!!

I finished "Promised." All that is left is editing, and who knows when that will get done. Only God knows, really. I postponed writing "Stay Alive," because I'm not that interested in writing it yet. I tried writing a story called "Life As We Know It," but I'm not real sure where to go with it from here. I also am half finished writing a book called "Home To You," but I haven't had time to really think about what else I could put in besides the 60-some pages I've already written. I HAVE, however, been reading a lot. I opt to read at least one chapter every morning before breakfast. It works pretty well, because then I can start my days off better that way. In fact, reading over my morning coffee--or in this case, morning breakfast--has always been a mini-dream of mine.

But anyway, any book ideas would be appreciated. The most I've been writing lately are school papers, if anything, and we all know how boring those can be. I read the book "Avalon High" by Meg Cabot twice. It's a superb book, and I highly recommend it!! So if you get some spare time, check out your local bookstore and rent it or buy it!! Whatever comes first, really. My sister recommended it to me, and now there's a movie of it coming out in the fall!! I'm so excited, besides Part 1 of Harry Potter 7 coming out at the end of November, of course!! :) I'm a huge Harry Potter fan. Not as big as I am a fan of God, but anyway, that's pretty much all the book news I have lately!! God bless and take care, y'all!! Everyone depend on God with all your heart, body, & soul, and hopefully I will be back next month to give y'all more exciting news!! :D

Ta!! :)

P.S.> In the mean time, check out the new layout for my blog!! :) I made the layout that way, because I LOVE antique stuff and it reminds me of my late great-grandmother and my two grandmothers. Also, I think it fits best with my blog genre, don't you?? :) Ta!!

Month of July~

Hey, y'all! 
Here I am at work eating my lunch, and thinking about how great people are. J. K. Rowlling, for example, was obviously a fantastic author. Look how fabulous the Harry Potter movies have become because of her books. I wish I had a brain like hers to write. This month on either July 15th or the 17th, not sure which date since I have one or the other dates; but anyway, on this date, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is coming out. My sisters and I are so excited to see it. It's truly going to be a work of art. I am reading the book of it right now. I haven't read the other books, since I've seen all the movies and my sisters have explained everything. But this book is definitely going to tempt me to read the last one for sure, and maybe even the rest of them sometime in the future, despite me knowing what happens in all five of them. Personally for me, I can't wait to see what will happen between Ron and Hermione. I am definitely fans of those two, and even the actor and actress portraying them. I am very excited for the movie, and I think you should all know that. 
My mom, cousin, and sisters are lately at the county fair right now. We go every year, and I'd been a f-4-H-er for several years, but retired from it a few years ago. I am now a 4-H alumni, and get excited to see my sisters and cousin do their sheep shows every year. It is definitely fun, except I'm left doing all the chores at home when they're busy camping out at the fair. I think that's required. But anyways, I do all the chores. It's not that hard of work, although I dread it only because it takes a bit to get everything done. God willing, I won't have to chase our jumping sheep ewe all over the barn. She is obsessed with eating, so she sails gates and fences like nothing. If we're lucky, she leaves the pens alone, especially if she and her ewe friends are in the pasture eating. But once she's inside with the rest of them, I better darn well make sure that the pen I daily feed, that door, is always closed. Which is a bummer, because that way, the lambs in the pen don't get much sunshine. I'm hoping that'll change in the future most definitely, because of course they love the outdoors. 
So, I'd ask again if y'all please pray for this ewe to be somehow reckoned with, and that the job I have with chores, including some household chores, to be easy for me until the rest of the clan gets back Sunday evening. I am definitely praying and hoping myself. 
Ta! for now! If any of you is a big HP fan, I hope you enjoy the movie coming up. :)
