Mystery and Suspense… with a touch of romance
Nearby my house is a small sweetgum tree. Each year, its colors begin to turn long before other hardwoods. Although the change is often due to dry conditions I consider it a reminder that autumn is on the way. We had a hint of fall this week with some much needed rain and cooler temps....

Confession. After ten days of vacation, waking up to an alarm and going to work was hard. With the September days growing shorter, the sun hasn't risen before I leave the house. I made my usual stop at our local What-a-Burger for a sausage-egg biscuit and the largest iced tea they sell (need to tank... Continue Reading →
Not far from my home is a local park where locals often gather to watch their kids play soccer. There are also tennis courts, picnic tables, outdoor grills, and even a covered pavilion that can be used for large gatherings.

It's been a quiet week for the most part. The dust isn't as noticible, the triple digit temps have somewhat subsided, and I'm looking forward to a four-day weekend.

My husband and I have spent the past three days in a cabin near Broken Bow, Oklahoma. Not our fanciest vacation and certainly not... Continue Reading →
After taking two days off from my day job last week, I had a five day weekend with the Labor Day holiday. And can I say those five days went by incredibly fast? Somehow, in my busyness to finish Unknown Reasons as well as formatting another book, I lost track of the fact we had... Continue Reading →
Happy first day of May, everyone. Can't believe another month has passed us by, but April bid her farewell yesterday. She said goodbye with a vengeance in my part of Texas.
