  • Plagued by Headaches

    The last couple of days, I have been feeling pretty crappy. Mostly, it’s the headaches. No matter what I take (Excedrin, Aleve, Ibuprofen) or what I do (Neti-pot, sit with ice pack, heating pad), nothing seems to get rid of it. I have no idea if it’s an allergy thing or a sinus thing or a tension thing. /shrug. All I know is that it hurts. This morning is actually better, but the headaches have been setting in around 3 or 4 and not letting go for the rest of the night. In fact, last night I took a benadryl…

  • Productivity Booster

    No matter how hard you work, there is always more that needs to get done. So much so that it can get overwhelming pretty fast. When I feel overwhelmed or I feel like there’s so much to do that I will never be able to finish it or reach my goals, my first reaction is to freeze. I’m not saying it’s logical, but it happens. Doing nothing at all is the worst thing I could do, and yet that’s my typical reaction. Unless something forces me into action like a payment due or a meeting that I just can’t miss,…

  • Resident Evil: Afterlife 3D

    Zombies in 3D? Pure awesome. But first, an update on my life. I haven’t been updating much, I know. I’m sorry! I have been working on several big projects and thinking about starting a new blog that is less random and more specific. I have started a new novel I’m calling BEAUTIFUL DEMONS. I put PANDEMIC aside for now and am letting it sit before I go back to revise again. Things are good, just busy. I just wanted to write a quick post to say how much I enjoyed the newest Resident Evil movie. This is the 4th movie…

  • Update: My Vision Board

    I finished! Here’s a look at my personal vision board: It is full of affirmations and goals and dreams of what my future will be. I know that I already have the most important ingredient for my own happiness – my amazing husband. He’s everything I ever dreamed of in a life partner, and more. Now, it’s just a matter of us working together to achieve the rest of our dreams. Hopefully this vision board will help us to focus on those goals and get motivated to work toward them every day!

  • Creating My Vision Board

    My goal for today is to create a “vision board”. So what is a vision board? As I understand it, it’s a place where I can put my goals and where I want to be in the future into visual images and affirmations. For example, I want to focus on losing weight and getting healthy. In the future, I see myself as someone who is thin, beautiful, and healthy. Last night, I cut out pictures of healthy food, exercise equipment I want to use, and words like ‘beautiful’ and ‘go the extra mile’. Weight loss is just one part of…

  • Book 15: NAKED IN DEATH

    I know I’ve lost count at this point. I’ve definitely read more than fifteen books this year, but I have failed to write reviews on my site about them. /sigh. It was a good idea, but I’ve definitely fallen short on getting every book up here. This one, however, I wanted to mention for a variety of reasons. ‘Naked in Death’ by J.D. Robb was an awesome book. I read it over the course of four or five nights, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Eve Dallas, the main protagonist of the series, is a cop in the 2050’s. She’s tough-as-nails,…
