Finally Back For More
Posted on 11:47am Thursday 13th October 2011
I am truly sorry as it has been awhile since my last blog. It has been total chaos for me. My son started a new school, the dog has decided she wants to go into the career path of being a thief, I am redecorating my house (painting) and psyching myself up for NaNoWriMo (National November Writing Month).

Business Review: Scrumptious Delights "Heavenly Cupcakes"
Posted on 11:40am Monday 8th August 2011
Yesterday I was on Twitter networking and the owner of Scrumptious Delights was on there talking about her business...CUPCAKES! I decided to look at her website and the pictures on there were so beautiful. I was getting hungry just looking at all these inviting cupcakes. They were calling me and the voices in my head of course said buy it...buy it...buy it.

Not Neglecting
Posted on 11:44am Sunday 7th August 2011
It has been a busy couple of weeks for me as I have been putting alot of work into my Novel, catching up with family, friends and networking. Having a child home for summer holidays takes up most my time as he has disabilities and needs to know what is going on at all times. He gets bored quite quickly and I have to step in to fill in the gaps and encourage him.

Book Review: My Body Belongs to Me By: Jill Starishevsky
Posted on 3:40pm Thursday 14th July 2011
The book “My Body Belongs to Me” is a wonderful book that teaches children who and what to do if they are have been or is suffering from Sexual Abuse. It educates them in a way with rhyme and illustrations and encourages a child that it is okay to tell an adult when you have been touched in a private area, whether it is a teacher, parents, police officer or anyone who will listen. And keep telling until someone does believe you.

Surprise it’s a Gallstone!
Posted on 11:24am Sunday 3rd July 2011
What a shocker it is to be sleeping soundly dreaming, only to be woken up by sharp pains in your stomach. I was just dreaming about pains in my stomach when I awoke to the exact same situation? It is kind of ironic. The pains came and went until 6:30 am then they seemed to have gotten worse. I was able to tolerate it until about 10:30am. My son whom has special needs, called 999 for an ambulance. I am so proud of him.

In Search of a Humorous Life
Posted on 10:46am Tuesday 14th June 2011
Anyone out there, who just wants to enjoy life, laughs and have a good time? I am now raising my hand with total enthusiasm! I do! I do! I do! I love comedians they are so smack on target about everything. I am a people watcher, as I am sure they are. I observe personalities, body language (read a book on that subject...very interesting.), and how they interact in different situations.

Organisation in a House of Chaos
Posted on 10:59am Monday 13th June 2011
I am a procrastinator by nature so when I need to be organised, it is literally like pulling teeth. I have papers everywhere, post-its on my shelf next to me, reference books and notepads all over the living room as this is my workspace. I know everything is all over but most of the time, I know where things are.

To Diet or Not to Diet
Posted on 9:07am Thursday 9th June 2011
To diet or not to diet (is that a question or a statement?). I have been using the “See Food Diet”, you know the one where you see food and you eat it! It seems to be working for me but, I am a bit confused as I believe that this diet for people who want to gain weight instead of losing it.
