Something for the Writers

Happy Sunday morning! I stumbled across this interesting looking contest and thought I’d share!

Want to publish a book? Even a small one might get some exposure and $$.

This contest even appeals to me, although I’ve never written a book. It could be the impetus so many of us need, but you have to go to Amazon and really read the submission rules. It would be a challenge and a fun experiment, if you care to jump through all the hoops. I had the idea that maybe I could fill some pages with all the experiences we’ve had so far, even though it hasn’t even been a year, it might be a starting place to open a series.

We had rain this week which was absolutely welcome. Friday night I coerced Dave to sit outside and break up with TV for a bit. I took a pic of the pretty sky as the sun was setting behind us somewhere.

Must be really windy up there.

here’s my man, getting a bit shaggy again, with our queen of a dog.

That’s Whiskey, she is such a diva! Brandy doesn’t do laps.

We enjoyed the music, a few beverages, and the warm coastal breeze for a little while. It was nice to get away from the idiot box for a few. It is so isolating and brain numbing if done too long. I simply cannot wait until we are in another 55+ park. Every night this past week has been a nightmare trying to get sleep for all the noise from the kids skating, yelling, and other racket. No one observes “quiet hours”, nor do the powers that be enforce them.

Besides all that, those parks are usually cheaper and club memberships honor their discounts. They hold regular activities and have tons of amenities. I so miss it!

David has had his chef hat very busy this week. Last night’s gourmet meal topped all so far and was restaurant worthy!! Tender ribeye topped with a homemade cream shrimp sauce, baked potatoes and salad! Why ever go out?

That steak was to die for!
The night before, this was dinner! Fresh mahi mahi, grilled fresh shrimp, salad and rice pilaf.

are you hungry now? 🤣😂

Well, it’s time for church, I missed last week! Have a great Sunday everyone!

      1. Oh yes, I’ve been “retired” for a long time. After 22 years in the medical field, it was affecting my mental health. Dave finally retired this past November, which is why we were allowed to live our new lifestyle!
