What's Happening In My Life?

1: I've been very busy getting everything in order for when I start writing again... which I'm hoping will be later today or tomorrow. I even took the time to making up a schedule for both of my blogs... See at the end of this blog for schedule. I want to be able to stick to them for the end of this year at least and then I'll review them to see how they are working for me.

2: I guess everyone will have to get used to me blogging everyday again. In truth I have actually missed it.

3: On my WordPress blog I've actually pre-scheduled all my back burner books for the rest of the year... they'll be live each Australian Saturday... so stop by and check them out if you can and leave me a comment.

4: I'm still waiting for my house to sell so that I can finally move and unpack... I'm hoping in the next couple of weeks I can make a trip into IKEA and buy my new bookcases and a couple of other things and then I can at least set up my home library.

5: I can't believe the government is still arguing whether or not same sex marriage should be legalised... In my humble opinion they need to pull their heads out of their arses. I don't know why they or anyone else for that matter thinks they have a right to deny equality and basic human rights to people. I may personally be a straight woman, but I'm also under the belief--To each his/her own... we are a forward thinking people--so this backwards law needs to be abolished... Why can't the Queen just change the freaking law? It honestly annoys the crap out of me.

I Have A Theory...

Now how many of you automatically sang: that it's a demon, nah something isn't right there...?

Okay, enough of Buffy quotes...

Now back to my theory... I think the world is against me for getting back to writing. Every time I sit down to write  something in my life jumps to the forefront and demands my attention... Then to make matters worse, I accidentally washed my one and only USB that I still have at the old house (the one I'm currently still living in) the rest are packed in boxes at the next place... 

So now I have to figure out if I can still use the USB or not risk it and buy a new one... what does everyone think?

Then getting up to wash and find out it's raining... I know everyone is saying so what... But living in SE Queensland; Australia... my only drying method is via the sun, and rain doesn't help me at all.

So maybe today I'll finally have a chance to sit down and write... that is unless Toby (our cat that is recovering from a mild stroke... I didn't even know cats could have strokes) climbs up on me demanding cuddles... since he's gotten sick he's been very clingy.

Today I planning on cleaning out my Dropbox... and getting rid of the crap. Over on my WordPress blog I'm putting up excerpts on some of my back-burner books to see if readers want to hear more, or if I should tossed them in the recycle bin. So feel free to stop by and let me know what you think... I'll be posting them on Saturdays in Australia.

Today I'm In A Bad Mood

Today I have my cranky pants on... I just found out that I either have to find a builder willing to sign off on a Shed in my front yard or I have to sit and do a builder owner course to get a licence and a white card so that I can get the shed certified or I have to pull it down.

This totally sucks...

I blame my Ex for this as he didn't do it right when the shed was being built. On the outside I'm looking calm and collected, but on the inside... I'm bloody fuming.

Having to sit the test to get my licence will take weeks and then it might not even be usable because it is one huge arse shed. 18 X 9 X 4.8...

If anyone in the Gatton, Queensland area knows of any builder who can sign off on this I'll be forever grateful.

Today I Am...

Today I am... typing up all the results for the stories I have read for the Rainbow Awards... I gotta say we have seriously talented people out there.

Today I am also... filling in an interview for a promotional thing at Rainbow Book Reviews... It was fun. I hope I didn't ramble too much.

Today I am... reading through Moon Runners 2: I Won't Let You Go to see where I'm up to in that story. 

Today I am also... going through all my notes on Wardens of the Guild 2: All That Shimmers.

Today I am also... going o find the notebook with all my information on Sons of Evenmore 3: Fear The Scarlet Moon... I just hoped I haven't packed it and sent it to the new place.

Today I also... Took my mother who is 84 to Toowoomba shopping. We were only there for an hour or so, but I can tell you it was the longest hour of my life. I love my mother, but taking her shopping for new books is difficult... as she can never remember what books she's read. Now I keep a note book with the ones she has read.

Updates..

Now that the decision is made, I'm slowly heading towards my new horizon & starting to get people used to the new name that I'll be eventually writing under in the future... everyone so far has been very supportive and have had heaps of great ideas...

FIREBORN:
1- Hidden Hearts 3: Going By the Book
2- Moon Runners 2: I Won’t Let You Go

4- The Freedomers 2: Craine’s Everlasting Faith

FINALLY!

I'M BACK IN STORY MODE

I was sitting in the car in the undercover car park at Grand Central shopping centre… I was reading my Kindle as I waited for Emily to run into the mall and grab something from the chemist. There were people walking through the undercover parking area I could hear them as I read… I was engrossed in my book (Kresley Cole’s—IAD series)… all of a sudden there were three very distinct vibrations (I assume from the construction site across the street) but when I looked up I seemed to be alone… no other people in sight… and so I thought to myself:

  1. What would happen if multiple plains of existence collided and over lapped?
  2. What would happen if people got sucked from one to the other and vice-versa?
  3. Would it be utter chaos?
  4. What would happen if you walked through a door in one world and out of it into another world… but trying to go back through same door took you to somewhere else yet again?

I've Been Sick

Call me slow if you want... I have been throwing up for the last three days... I couldn't work out what the hell was making me so sick... 

And then last night it hit me...

Flowers... My brother and sister in-law gave me some flowers for the house going on the market... every time I walk past them I need to throw up. Actually every time I smell them I want to throw up... 

So... Today they are going... & then hopefully I'll get better.

All that's left to do now besides sell the place is I have to get a skip bin for the last minute rubbish, but everyone has been so sick. Mind you the rest have all had a really bad flu... Thank God for the flu needle... that's all I can say.

I have finally finished all the painting that I needed to do. I will be happy if I never have to pick up a paint brush again. And thank God my brother is getting the new place painted before Mum and I move in... Crap just remembered I have to sand back and repaint the computer desk (hot pink & black) Emily's colours as it's going to be sitting in the spare room where she will stay if she needs to attend UNI for exams.
