Holy Ma-Zolie!
What a busy couple of weeks its been since I last wrote. Warmer weather has sprung itself and low-and-behold I am swamped busy at the stores leaving no time to do the bulk of my paperwork at the store, which in turn eats into my playtime. Not to mention the glorious walks that I enjoy with the hubby and kiddos. All of which of course means I end up being so busy I dont get time to update the lot of you on the insanity that is my life.
Nothing overly new on the business front. The fine details are almost sorted out with the stores and their transfer. Few loose ends to wrap up. So excited for it to be over and done.
We lost a good family friend the weekend I was away and said our goodbyes last week to him. This week we lost my husbands grandmother, we will be out to say our goodbyes on the weekend.
The rugrats are doing well my middle daughter finally picked out her piece for CML (the big piano competition they do in the summertime). My oldest is playing Josh Groban’s “You Raise Me Up”, middle is playing the theme to James Bond and youngest is doing Elton John’s “Dont Let The Sun Go Down On Me”. Defiantly a strong line up.
Just heard back from my cover designer and shes going to start work on book two, Dragon Twins, cover shortly! Now I am just waiting on word back from my editor and then I should be able to get a date ironed out for a release! Hoping for a late June/ early July date
That just about covers everything that’s been happening in my world! How has everyone else been since I last chatted with you?
Blogging From A to Z — ‘Time’
Definition: The indefinite continued progress of existence and events in the past, present, and future regarded as a whole. (Yep. Googled that one)
Time is one thing that we always complain there is never enough of. I for one know that there are never enough hours in the day for me to do what it is that I need to get done. There’s always some thing that crops up in my way that prevents me from completing everything. I tend to minimize that somewhat with a finely tuned schedule and things to do list that generally keeps me on track however even that has its downfalls as it doesn’t allow for much in the way of flexibility.
Unless you pencil it in of course 
I love my days when I have the entire plan worked out. What about you are you a planner or a panster when it comes to your day?
Blogging From A to Z — ‘Support’
Definition: To bear the weight of.
One of the things that I love about the Moms Weekend away I am just back from is the discussions we have. They tend to be deeper and more meaningful than our usual everyday conversations. One topic that never fails to come up is the support we get from our spouses and how vital that is to us.
And thats not to say that we are not strong and independent women–we are. But rather the knowledge that there is someone who is there for us, through thick and thin and how amazing that never ending supply of love really is.
The biggest thing I missed this weekend was the amazing hugs my hubby gives. They are the thing that I need most out of my hectic days. Without them I end up feeling like Im missing something important. Thankfully he missed me just as much and I have been hugged quite a bit.
What does your spouse or significant other or even a friend do that you find to be an important part of your support system? Or is there something you with they did but they dont?

Blogging From A to Z — ‘Quiet Rest’
This post is going to have to cover two days as by the time you read this post I should be well on my way to my Annual Mom’s Getaway Weekend.
It is a weekend I have come to look forward to every year. It is my great big giant reset button. It is the break I need so I can come back and be the Mom/Wife I need to be after I had a break from being the business owner/writer that takes up the rest of my time.
Not that I dont love and enjoy my life but I like everyone else need a break every so often. I cant be superwoman all the time.
Will I miss my monsters and my hubby? Of course! I miss them and they miss me.
My staff are wonderful folks and will do just fine. If there is anything it can wait until Monday for me to get back at it.
My book is on sale and should be just fine without me around.
So with that I bid you adieu…have a wonderful weekend… and if you like suspense thrillers … have a look at mine and maybe give mine a try.. its 99cents this weekend only
