Alice, he's black and it's almost Halloween - BOO! LOL

Good Morning!

It's almost that time - time to make lunches and send husband and son off to work and school.

I'm enjoying the quiet of the morning (well I was enjoying it BEFORE my father started meowing at the cat a few minutes ago).

It'll be another busy day here in NY - at least the temps are temporarily rising (surprise snow flurries last Sunday) ...

I find myself longing for the days when life slows its pace a little. I'm craving time to just sit - reflect, reboot, and redirect.

Good afternoon. It's lunchtime in Norway, and I'm somewhere between Trondheim and Bergen. And from there flights to Oslo and then on to London.

It's a sort of strange limbo time. Had to be out of the cabin at 10.00, so feeling homeless. But it's a relaxing time too, no obligations or appointments, and the Wifi is working well so a chance to pop onto the forum, see what the family is up to, and look at pictures for my next article. On the flights I'll just read a book.

Snow flurries, Alice? It's not even Halloween yet! We had some snow several days ago, but were within the Arctic Circle, so no surprise. Some of the snow we see is left over from last winter, but the mountains had a fresh dusting too.

Good Morning!
It's 11:32 am in Columbus, Ohio.
I have been organizing the house, writing, and getting ready for a visit from my friend who is coming in this weekend from Virginia! The sun is out, I am safe, loved, and happy. Just a little crazy busy!
I wish you all a great day!

Good morning/afternoon ladies!

It's 9:25 in sunny southern California. Our newest member of our family is finding his wobbly feet really fast and playing with anything he sees...cute little fella!

My ebook EPUB version finally got fixed with the help of a guy from Lulu.com and has been distributed to all the big guys like Amazon, Apple, Barnes & Noble and Kobo - just waiting until it shows up in a couple of days - was super excited about that! Now I can move on to other projects and keep marketing that one.

Have to, HAVE TO, get my articles done and written ahead today - want to have a clear run for Nannowrimo.

Need more coffee before I start, so have a wonderful day everybody and I'll talk soon.

They are predicting a beautiful day here in NY - temps expected to rise into the low 70s. YAY!

Sipping on coffee (the regular variety - I can't drink all the flavored coffees or creamers ... BUMMER) - and checking in with friends and family.

No matter where I am in life, y'all have been my constants - and for that, I am eternally grateful.

Today is another busy day ... work, paperwork, research (reading a book on microfilm from 1640s), bills ...

It is my intention to clear out the upstairs of all clothes tonight.

Happy Wednesday, y'all!

Good morning Alice,

It's a quiet coffee morning here today. Had to stop off after dropping the kids off at school for milk - there was like 1 tablespoon left in the refrigerator..lol...gotta have my coffee with milk and sugar.

I received the proof copy of my book yesterday and so today I'm going to proof read it. It looks pretty good except for a few page breaks where the title of the next recipe is on the bottom of a page.

It's beautiful in Cali here right now. It totally feels like an Autumn day. The air is cool and crisp and the sunshine makes everything look bright and beautiful.

Have a wonderful day!

Morning from UK! Ive been adding a new element to my coffee recently.

Been hearing the benefits of turmeric for our health so decided to make a batch - of turmeric paste or golden paste as it is sometimes called -up and give it a try.

A friend introduced it to me and told me she puts it in her coffee! I thought she must be mad! The paste consists of turmeric, coconut oil an d other things that you would never think about adding to your coffee.

She insisted how nice it is so I gave it a try - against all my instincts - and wow its not as bad as you would imagine. Now I'm hooked!

Good Morning Coffee Friends!

Tracy, the tumeric in your coffee sounds, well, weird LOL! I'm currently trying it in a gentler supplement version - I've heard it can aggravate gallstones, and since I'm currently doing a gentle liver cleanse, thought I'd wait on the tumeric for a bit.

Allyson, I love the name Baby Boo. I was even thinking that if I were to get my super cute, adorable mini australian shepherd (blue merle) in the near future, I'd call him Boo LOL!!!

And isn't it super beautiful here in So. California. WOW, I am loving this weather. Perfect for leaving all the windows open.

Alice, you are reading a book from the 1600s?? That is amazing! And I admire your commitment to clearing space. I've been clearing a bit at a time. I have one of those jewelry boxes that stands on its own, and it was covered with books!!! Like two feet tall LOL!! That is all clear, and the books are put away :::whew:::

I'm really longing for some reflecting time too. A couple of days ago I was under the weather, then yesterday I had to do some running around. Today I really need to get some ad copy written because I'm self employed, and my services aren't going to sell themselves.

Mona, I'm guessing you've been home for a couple of days now? I hope you had a wonderful trip.

Chel, have a blast with your friend - that is so cool she's coming for a visit. And I have been loving seeing your illustrations on your facebook page!!

Okay ladies, I guess I should get some writing done. Allyson, I'm also trying to get ahead for the NaNoWriMo - especially cuz I'll be in Arizona for 7 days!! Oy - I plan on bringing my computer, and trying to continue to write - we'll see how that goes HA HA!!!

Well, I hope you all have a wonderful, wonderful day!!!!

Ha ha! Yes Deanna I know right! I'm just drinking my turmeric coffee at the moment. Hope the liver cleanse is going well and you have a good trip to Arizona. I've only been to South America (Lima & Macchu Picchu) never been to America though Arizona is one of the places I've always fancied going too. And Florida of course Hope you have a great day!
