Hi Everyone. My week in pics.

May be an image of 1 person, standing, flower and outdoors
I made it to The Masters for the second time in 2006.
May be an image of 1 person, outdoors and text that says 'B330'
My favorite golfer of all time.
May be an image of 3 people, people standing and outdoors
Tiger has made a historic impact on the game of golf. I love him and am so impressed that he has come back so quickly. I hope he continues to play for many years to come.

The other day, The Mentalist was on all day, so I binge watched it. I love the show, but I rarely get the chance to watch any reruns. I had hoped it would run to the end of the series, but it didn’t. I tried to catch the opening, but I didn’t think to take a pic.

Mentalist: noun, someone who uses mental acuity, hypnosis/and or suggestion. A master manipulator of thoughts and behavior.

Mr Wonderful is working for the Blue Wahoos, Pensacola’s minor league baseball team and will be at the ballfield today and tomorrow, so I will be binge watching Twilight…again. I just can’t help myself.

I also wanted to share with you a giveaway from a favorite author of mine Chrys Fey. If you would like to check out her books and how I felt, drop by HERE.

Chrys Fey is hosting a GIVEAWAY for a signed paperback of her romantic-suspense novella A Fighting Chance and other goodies!

Hi Everyone. We have had some wild weather this week. Everything from calm winds and sunny skies to severe thunderstorms. Typical spring weather for the south…except the bad weather seems to be more frequent than it used to. Maybe it’s just me. Either way, I am happy to see summer on its way. Mr Wonderful and I have been working outside and enjoying it. Hope you had a great week and have a good one coming up.

Hi Everyone. Not much new going on. Had some storms go through. No big deal. It is spring in the south, so that is normal. Some wind, some rain and best of all, some sun. Today it is bright and chilly, but it will warm up and I will be doing some cleanup around the pool and patio. If there is a leaf, it finds the pool. Have a super week.

Hi Everyone. Not a whole lot to talk about. The weeks and months are seeming to run together, though I am excited about working outside…in the pollen. LOL I did some work but remembered to wear my mask, so my allergies weren’t too bad. I did leave a wheelbarrow full of leaves and it is raining, so I’m sure that will be one soggy mess. Oh well, I least I got some cleanup done.

Did some reading and caught up on writing reviews for the books I have read. I am doing pretty good about keeping up with them. I have plenty sitting in my draft folder, ready to go. I was going to try and review everything I read, but I am having a hard time working them in.

How about you? What have you been up to? Any great books you want to share? Have you been traveling…yet? I was actually out a couple times this week. We went to the bank to have Mr Wonderful’s application for retirements notarized and went to the beach to see the Blue Angel’s come home from California. It was chilly that day, but so nice to be out and about. Right now, it’s raining, a steady downpour. It is spring in the south, so that is to be expected. We were lucky the last week. We had some steady rain, but not a huge accumulation, and lots of wind. Knocked the last of the leaves off the trees, so that is a good thing. lol

Hi Everyone. It has been a quiet week. Mr Wonderful worked some freelance, we cleaned the pool, though it is full of leaves again. We had some great weather, but rain has moved in. We are supposed to have some severe weather in the next day or two, but that is normal for this time of year. Time to hunker down, binge on Below Deck and watch some of The Players Tournament, that is having lots of weather too.

Hi Everyone. All right…I have been doing a lot of reading and blogging, but have also gotten out in the yard. I am getting the pool ready for swimming. I think the leaves have slacked off, so the robot can keep up with them. Now, it’s a matter of getting the chemicals up to par. I have also been cleaning up the yard a bit. It is very slow work, but slow and steady wins the race, right? I remember when I used to use a self propelling mower, walking the entire yard. HAH…those days are long gone. And that reminds me. I need to call the lawnmower repair people. We just spent a couple hundred bucks to fix it and it crapped out again. Now they want another five hundred bucks. I am still hesitant about paying for it. Maybe it’s time to get a new one. I will be really pissed if we fix it and it craps out before a year or two passes. This hits us hard, seeing Mr Wonderful no longer has a paycheck. We are playing a money game because of health insurance. We have to watch our income or we could be paying eleven hundred dollars a month. How in the hell do they expect us to do that?! Thank goodness he is getting some fantastic freelance work this week. F***** Covid! It put a hitch in our well laid plans. And speaking of Covid, I am hyping myself up to get out in the read world again. It’s hard, not only because of Covid, but because we have to watch our spending. What a bummer. To work so hard so we could not have to worry about bills and such…now it brings to mind those times we were wrapping coins to be able to go out. Life is…funny

Hi Everyone. Drat. I keep meaning to make my own banner and forget until I am making the post. Oh well…maybe next week. Not a lot going on. Some warmer weather moved in, but I didn’t make it outside…rain and wind, so I have been reading and blogging.

Hi Everyone. I wanted to share the release of Lizzie Borden, Zombie Hunter, in audio. I loved it. You can read my review HERE.

Celebrate the new audiobook (pre-order now, releases 2/21)  for Lizzie Borden, Zombie Hunter! Follow along on the blog tour for a chance to win a $10 gift card and the Kindle ebook is also on sale for $1.99! 

Have been messing around outside as much as the weather allows. I am determined to have the yard in pretty good shape this month or early in March. I want to get a jump on it, because it was so hot out last year, I couldn’t work outside much, but I could hang around the pool, which I DID have cleaned up. I am getting ready to make sure all the chemicals are in order, so I am trying to keep it leaf free. The oak leaves are pretty heavy because of the high winds. I haven’t had to run it a lot because of the cool weather, but with March right around the corner, I need to get it swimalicious! It’s starting to warm up. I can put my hand in the skimmer to retrieve the leaf basket and not feel like my hand is on fire. LOL I believe I have become a weather wimp down here. 🙂

Hi All. I have made some changes to the blog and still want to make my own banner for Sherry’s Shelves. I have added some of my own pics to the header and updated some other stuff. I am staying current on writing reviews, pretty much writing them as soon as I finish reading the book. I am going to try and review everything I read, but I’m not sure how that will work out. I have some reviews sitting, waiting, because I think we will be making our trip north this year and blogging will be hit and miss. I have wanted to go to Michigan for two years and put it off because of Covid. This year we plan on ‘business as usual’ with safety in mind. It makes me a bit anxious, but I am not a spring chicken, so I am ready to GO.

Our Azaleas are blooming like crazy.

The International Space Station flew over the house on 2.6.22. How cool is that?

Hi Everyone. Hope you are all well and having a good week. I spent a few days moving a bunch of books. I took my signed blogging books and moved them into the office and took that bookcase and put in the kitchen to use for a charging station, etc. I took my unsigned blogging books and moved them into the guest bedroom and moved that bookcase against the wall in the living room. Then I took my bought signed books and put them in another bookcase in the office. Then, I left a mess. I have to think about what comes next because we have so much stuff…that neither I nor Mr Wonderful want to get rid off. If I don’t share photos this week, I’ll take some for next week.

May be an image of 1 person and outdoors

I am now watching the Senior Bowl that is taking place in Mobile, Alabama. We used to go to it every year, but since Covid…nope. Mr Wonderful has went to a practice and got some great shots.

No photo description available.

Well, gotta run. Things to do………
