Sherry’s Shelves #198 – Are You Ready For Some…Football & Freebies #football #freebooks

Sherry’s Shelves #198 is my blog update from 10.6.19 – 10.12.19.

LATEST HAPPENINGS

Hi All. I am watching College Gameday as I prepare this post. All I can say is GO BLUE. Do you watch football or have a favorite team? Well, not really a lot happening around the fundinmental household. Been doing some reading, some blogging, some yardwork and I had to visit the dentist. Man, oh man, do I hate doing that, but I have gotten much better. JUST DO IT and then it is done, instead of all the anticipation and dread by putting it off. We are getting some rain today. It’s just a drizzle really, cloudy and dark, but we so desperately needed it. I can’t even remember the last time it rained. Still warm and enjoying the outdoors. What’s the weather like in your neck of the woods?

Sherry Shelves #195 – Clydesdales at the Wahoos #Clydesdales #Wahoos

Sherry’s Shelves #193 is my weekly update from 7.28.19 – 8.3.19.

LATEST HAPPENINGS

Hello fellow bloggers. I hope you have all had a great week, filled with family, fun and a lot of great books. I keep meaning to catch a baseball game and was bummed that I missed a visit by the Clydesdales at the Pensacola Wahoos Friday. Mr Wonderful captured some fun photos, though. I can always count on him. Myself, I’ve been doing some reading, blogging, and movie watching. I’ve also been piddlding in the yard, one of my favorite things to do. Still can’t do too much with my bum wing, but I can do some cleanup and enjoy the pool. We sure do need some rain. How about you?

In Pensacola Florida, on 12th Street, we have a bridge that is known as Grafitti Bridge. People paint all kinds of things on it, without getting into any trouble. In honor of Shark Week, an artist added this fabulous painting and I love that noone painted over it.

Sherry’s Shelves #194 – Vacation Or Stacation?

Sherry’s Shelves #193 is my weekly update from 7.21.19 – 7.27.19.

LATEST HAPPENINGS

Hello fellow bloggers. I hope you have all had a great week, filled with family, fun and a lot of great books. I’ve been busy doing the usual, piddling around the house and the yard, doing some reading and blogging, and more reading and blogging.

As the summer winds down…OMG, July is almost over, I know a lot of you are doing school shopping and planning. I don’t have any of that to think of any more, but I do think of vacation. We tend to stacation for the summer, but as the fall approaches and the vacation season is winding down, we have begun planning. I’m not going to say where we are going, or when, but you will probably be able to tell. I will still be blogging, but it will be at a minimum and I will be posting a lot of pics after I get back.

Do you have a vacation planned? If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go?

Sherry’s Shelves #193 – Weeks Bay, Alabama #PitcherPlants

Sherry’s Shelves #193 is my weekly update from 7.14.19 – 7.20.19.

LATEST HAPPENINGS

Hello fellow bloggers. I have missed posting Sherry’s Shelves for the past few weeks. Not enough time in the day for doing everything and I knew I wouldn’t be able to respond to you in a timely fashion. Commenting and email take up so much time and I find it hard to stick to a schedule to make it easier for myself. How do you find the time?

Mr Wonderful had a freelance fishing gig and saw this sign and went in to investigate. Weeks Bay, Alabama. Now that he’s found it, he has to take me there! Pitcher Plants…I kept trying to remember what we called them as kids. We would find them in the woods around our house in Michigan…Jack in the Pulpits is what we called them. Fascinating plants.

LATEST HAPPENINGS

Hello. Welcome to another edition of Sherry’s Shelves. Well…Mardi Gras is over. Some of the family from Connecticut came down for Spring Break. I was happy Mardi Gras was still going on and we made it to New Orleans for a day of parades. We got pelted with beads…and if you know Mardi Gras…there are never enough beads. The weather started out a bit rainy but mild. Unfortunately, it changed to freezing colod for a couple of nights,but came back mild for their last day…at Pensacola Beach. I hope they enjoyed their time here as much as we enjoyed having the.

Image may contain: one or more people and outdoor

We have chosen our spot, scored some loot and are waiting for the next parade to arrive.

Image may contain: 4 people, including Shelby Ann and Eric Fundin, people smiling, people sitting, tree, sky, child and outdoor

My sister in law and niece, Sharon and Shelby look like they are having a great time. Have to remember to duck when those bags of beads are flying.

Here’s just some of the treasure we scored!

We had lunch at Peg Leg Pete’s on Pensacola Beach.

Sherry’s Shelves #182 – #Books #Weather

.

Sherry’s Shelves #182 is my weekly update from 1.27.19 – 2.2.19.

~~~

Hi Everyone. Hope you had a great week and managed to stay warm as this brutally cold weather attacks us, acting as if it is alive. The weather report for the Florida Panhandle is cloudy, cool with chances of rain throughout the weekend. DRAT. I am looking at the pool. It is now filled with leaves from the hated oak trees. I swear they shed year round. At least the wind has died down, so maybe I can get it cleaned up in between rain showers. After all, March is just around the corner and I am in it…REGARDLESS of how cold it will be. It’s my springtime ritual and I am thinking warm and sunny thoughts. How about you? What do you look forward to in the springtime? I saw a robin last weekend. Even for the south it is a bit early. Do you have anything planned for this weekend?

Kristine Mason is one of my favorite authors, ever since I read the CORE Shadow Trilogy. She writes some fantastic stories and I would like to share one of her latest in the Mechanics & Mayhem Series, Sully. Looking for a sizzling hot thriller? Sully may be for you.

SULLY (Mechanics & Mayhem Book 3)

Amazon / Goodreads

MY 56

Tears slipped down her cheeks. “Was the driver alive when you left?”

(page 56 in Word)

BOOK BEGINNINGS

DETECTIVE JANE COOPER’S heartbeat pounded in her ears as a tow truck, police cruisers and ambulances came into view. She parked along the shoulder of US-90 and drew in a deep breath, hoping the sudden wave of anxiety-induced dizziness would pass. When one of her fellow Violent Crimes Unit detectives, Keith Pierson, approached her car, she quickly wiped her sweaty palms along her pants, then exited.

GOODREADS BLURB

Army veteran and mechanic Sully Dolan spent decades avoiding a serious relationship. After how he’d been raised, he never understood why people bothered with love. Sex, sleep and food were all he needed. Then he meets Detective Jane Cooper.

Sully was supposed to be a one-night-stand. From the moment Jane gripped his hair and fell naked onto his bed, she’d told herself as much. Only one night turned into two, then three… Jane wants to be with Sully, but because of a dark secret that could destroy her if discovered, she brings their relationship to a screeching halt.

After Sully’s best friend is found unconscious on the side of a road, with a dead man next to him, Jane is thrust back into his life as lead detective for the investigation. Although bitter she ended things between them, Sully still misses her. But after too many rejections, how could he trust that she won’t stomp on his heart again? As they try to work through their differences, the past comes back to haunt Jane. Not only could her secrets be revealed and once again tear her and Sully apart, if she isn’t careful…she could lose her life.

A year later in the midst of putting his life back together, Mark finds out that his family was killed and it was…No accident.
