Is it just me? Or does it seem like this is the month that never ends? There’s almost an entire week left in August, believe it or not, and I haven’t gotten nearly as much done as I was supposed to. A month since the RWA conference and I still am not ready to send my manuscript out to NYC. I guess I should be grateful that the month is not over yet. It still gives me time to say I got this sent out in August. But to be honest, I’m ready for it to be over. I’m ready…
Ever since I got back from my vacation visiting family and friends last week, I’ve had a hard time getting back into the swing of things. But I feel the energy and the passion to write and work toward my goals coming back. Today is going to be a writing day. I could feel it the moment I got up this morning.

I can’t tell you how many nights I’ve stayed up writing down goal sheets and marking up a plan…
Coming home from a mini-vacation always means having to find my way back into some semblance of a routine. Not that I’m ever great at following a proper routine, but getting back into it is such a pain. I had a wonderful time on my trip to see my family and my best friend. I spent time with both of my beautiful nieces and all of my immediate family (including a steak dinner from my parents!), and then got to spend a few days hanging out with T and her beautiful family. The best part of being home is being…
Yay! After Wednesday night’s performance finale, I rushed to my phone and dialed the number to vote for Jeanine at least 100 times. I think I must have gotten through at least 20 times! I was so happy when she was announced as Season 5’s winner of So You Think You Can Dance. She really deserved it! After the elimination of my personal favorites this season (Janette and Kupono), Jeanine was really the only dancer I got super excited about watching. To see both her and Brandon standing up there as the top 2 made me very happy. Both of…
