Welcome home Muse...i have missed you!

Well she's back! My wonderfully mishievious muse who for one reason or another went on hiatus and left me high and dry. I actually sat down at my keyboard and wrote two chapters that are not totally sucky today! YAY!

I have been battling the most unbelievable case of writers blocks for months now. That is not to say that I haven't done any writing...just nothing that was any good... nothing I would want anyone to read. Every time I went back and read over my day's worth of forced words they bled uselessness.

I have always been able to write...letters, poems, short stories, whatever. To have that snatched away sent me into such a bizarre tailspin of self-doubt that I very nearly said to hell with it all. But I persevered and today everything simply fell into place once again.

Thank Heavens! And thanks to any and all who talked to me, chatted with me on the eXfactor boards, invited me to check out their blogs and simply waited with me. Now I am off to see what else is waiting just hidden within the tips of my fingers to leap onto the keyboard and weave into a lovely, hot, sexy story...Think a Canadian winter white-out - two men, one woman - stuck in their SUV for more than 24 hours...what COULD they get up to in there??? After all, they do have to stay warm...right?

Spring? What Spring?

Okay, so last night I went to bed feeling rather shitty, but happy with the knowledge that Spring was well and truly here. I mean the grass was green, I had a flock of robins fluttering about the yard, a few of the bulbs were poking their pale green sprouts up through the ground and the air smelled heavenly. Yes, Spring was well and truly here!

NOT!!!!

This morning I opened my eyes, spread the curtains on the bay window in our bedroom to try and catch a glimpse of the herd of deer who frequent the field behind us and to my shock and horror there is six inches of depressingly white snow on everything.

Who ever heard of a Spring blizzard? This is bizarre! This is not fair. I think perhaps Mother Nature missed the memo about spring either that or she is PMSing in a big way!

So, here I sit trapped in my beautiful valley once again by the snowdrft-clogged country roads out. I guess I can use the time to clean out a closet, scrub a wall or two or organize my file cabinet....nope, better yet I think I will get some writing done.

Hope you are enjoying a nice 'Spring' day wherever you are!

Has it really been that long?

Wow...I cannot believe it has been so long since I sat down and made the time to post on here. I have heard people say that if you're not careful, life has a way of just slipping past you, unnoticed...now I believe them!

We are settled in the new digs after one hell of a lot of hard work...but now it is ours and is as close to what we wanted as we are going to get, without winning the lottery.

I am the very happy nana of a beautiful 6 month old grand-daughter, Teagan. AND I am about to be blessed with another Grandson any day now. Life truly is good right now.

Now I really have to stopp staring out the window at the amazing country scene filled with 26 head of white-tailed deer, a flock of wild turkeys, rabbits galore, Canadian geese, ducks and too much more to list. I really NEED to get back to writing! The touch-ups of painting will still be there when I am done...right?

Have an awesome day all!
