Meet Bob

The stench of frozen rotted meat is in the air! Welcome to the Winter of Zombie Blog Tour 2014, with 10 of the best zombie authors spreading the disease in the month of November.

Horrified Press- Are you KIDDING ME?

Recently, I have been involved in a facebook discussion about a specific company and their practice of not providing contributor copies to the authors that work with them. Now, initially, I didn't even jump in to the conversation. I simply watched with interest as several authors and the publisher hashed it out. However, I started …

Cancerversary

Today is Spencer's Cancerversary. I like to think I made that word up. It has been exactly one year since he was diagnosed with Pre B Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia. One year ago today, Chris and I were informed that our little boy, who was going to turn three in two days had cancer. I …

Resolutions

    Two days ago, I called an informal meeting and gathered the guinea pigs...I mean the family. I presented them with an idea and after a couple rounds of eyeball rolling, they seemed to warm up to the idea. My plan, I told them, was to come up with a set of resolutions that …

Out of the Norm

6/22/2012 I have started the first portion of my journey. I have dropped off Spencer with my grandparents and have been dropped off at the Portland airport. I have passed through security, purchased some headphones so the poor person next to me is not subjected to Barry Manilow and am sitting at my gate unable …

All the Way to the Scene of the Crash…

Last night, once again, I fell asleep on the couch. I was waiting for the laundry to be done washing and I passed out. I woke up at about two thirty this morning, changed the laundry over to the dryer and headed up the stairs to go to bed. No sooner had I walked into …

A Little V.A. Mayhem

Today was a very, very, VERY long day. Not really an I've-been-working-all-day-on-lifting-boulders-the-size-of-Kentucky kind of day. More of an I've-been-sitting-in-office-chairs-all-freaking-day-long kind of day. My husband and I spent six hours at the Veteran's Administration today. That was for three appointments. My husband, who has been awake since 9 am yesterday morning, was running on 32 hours …

Hot Dog!

We are watching back to back episodes of Mickey Mouse Clubhouse this morning. Spencer loves the Hot Dog Dance at the end. He has also discovered (with my help) that he can watch the 'hot gog' dance on YouTube. We also watch Mana Mana and Beaker's Ode to Joy. He giggles so  much! I went …

In a fog

I am totally exhausted today. Last night, despite the fact that Spencer actually went to bed at a normal time last night, I was awake until 1 a.m. I am still reeling that my name was in Writer's Digest. I promise that I am not going to bring this up for the rest of my …
