Great Weekend. Great Books.
I'm reviewing "Fortune's Fool" by Sara Dennis for Romance Divas. I really liked this book. The author does a nice job of creating sweet romance and agonizing conflict. She's also having a contest on her website for the release of this book. Have a look. http://saradennis.com. Cobblestone Press is sure getting the best of the best.
I've been very lucky to have some time to read. Thanks to Romance Divas, I have books before their release date and I get a sneak peak at some really good stuff! I hope I can be helpful as a reviewer.
This weekend was a total blast. I got to relax and just be for a little while. I got to connect with some people that I haven't been able to see lately. It was wonderful.
I don't always realize how stressful things are until those things aren't there. I've got a redneck husband working 60 hours a week on a hillside that's probably going to slide. I've got a four year old, a five year old, an eighteen year old and a twenty-one year old (all boys) all living with me and none of them listen to me. *Sigh*. My five year old is going to have to do Kindergarten again. My four year old has broken two windows, a big wheel and the entertainment center door in the last four months. My best friend (who now lives with me) is trying to deal with her son's diagnosis of muscular dystrophy. I'm totally overloaded these days. And the testosterone! Whew! Even the dog is male. LOL. I keep waiting for things to calm down. This weekend, I felt free of decision making, mothering and housekeeping.
It's funny. I don't think I'm very good at any of those things, yet somehow it's my job. I don't know how I got off on this tangent.
So here's a challenge for y'all. Michelle and I joke about some of the words I use that aren't in regular everyday vocabulary. Examples? Conundrum, fodder, faux pau (which I forget how to spell but it sounds good), nonsequiter and a few others (which I can't think of). So your assignment should you choose to accept it--what words do you use that aren't in everyday vocabulary and has everyone looking at you like you've grown cabbages out your ears?--This tape will self destruct in five seconds. (not really)
