NO MORE PUTTING IT OFF FOR SURE THIS TIME

I have decided today is the day to begin writing my story I started over twelve years ago and to make enough headway on it that I should be able to finish it in a few weeks. My son wrote and published a book recently and it is selling steadily. My brother wrote two books and have them published so I believe writing is in the blood. My blood anyway. I think the problem is that I want to write about what happened to my son's dog but as I wasn't there during the event, I have been reluctant to go on with the story. I am going to write it and fill in the parts with fiction. So it will be a story based on actual events. I pray it will be a real blessing to animal lovers everywhere. I wrote a story for a magazine a few years ago regarding this particular dog. It is on pawfrienly.com. A story about Prince Duke and his "kids" 

I pray for good results and no obstacles to hinder my progress. I shall keep all my blog readers posted with updates on the story as I start my journey. 

Here I go.

ENID & JASON

My baby girl is getting married this Friday, July 15, 2016. We are so thrilled. The weather has been beautiful until yesterday. Hopefully it will be sunny on Friday. We are almost all set except for the last minute things. Enid is so excited and is doing nearly everything herself. She actually enjoys doing this type of thing but it might get a little stressful for her this close to the wedding.

The wedding was a beautiful success. It was outside overlooking the Smith River. The wedding party were so beautiful/handsome in their camo attire. The guests were mostly family. The wedding party was mostly family too. 

After the wedding, the couple spent the night there, then went on a honeymoon to Yellowstone National Park. They traveled through several states along the way. Enid got to visit with her
BFF that she hadn't seen for three+ years. 

Things have settled down now and things are getting back to normal around here. I will try to post a couple of pictures of the wedding on here. 

Ok, no wedding pictures yet. I need to figure how to do it. I am going to get away from here for now and start working on my story. It shouldn't take too long. After all, I've only had about 12 years to decide what to write.

No More Putting It Off

Today is July 2, 2016. I've decided to take up my writing again. I have a lot of time on my hands and my husband is encouraging me to finish the book I started about twelve years ago. At the time, a movie company was interested in taking a look at the finished product. I don't know why I quit then, but I have felt a gentle urge from within to get started on it once again.
I have a brother and a son who are both published authors. I, too, have an article published online but it is under a pen name and not my own name. 
I am encouraged by how easily my son was able to get his book published. He will help me with mine as soon as I write it. There's no time like the present time. I'm praying for God's guidance and help with this writing project and I know He will bless my effort to complete it since He is the one nudging me with His sweet spirit. 

Memorial Day Memories

Tonight I am going to share with you about my vacation over Memorial Day weekend. It was a very special time for my husband and myself as we have not had an actual vacation in several years. We went to Shasta Lake, California and met up with my cousins and their families. We only had a four day trip but it was great! Each night we slept on the patio boat. It was similar to sleeping in a water bed except the first night, when people were out having moonlight rides and their boats were making waves that rocked us fairly well. 
ok, I'm back for further blogging. I caught a cold just two days after our trip so I have been off the internet for the most part. Now I am ready to share a few things.
We had a great time that weekend. We met with cousins that we hadn't seen for almost 30 years. We played a lot of Hand and  Foot card games (canasta) and the guys went bass fishing twice each day. The only way to our little camp was via boat. I'm almost 67 yrs. young and that was my first time island camping. 
The weather was fair, not too hot. The day we left it was supposed to get in the mid 90's. We took a patio boat ride up river a ways and went in a gift shop and bought ice cream. It was delicious. Thankfully, hubby and I didn't gain any weight while on the camping trip. The lake was full and the weather was great. Had a good time and a trip I won't forget. We are making plans to go next year too. I hope we can go again this summer for a few days.
