Mac had so much fun trick or treating with his big brothers! It only took a couple houses before he got the hang of it. You walk, knock, wait and then take candy. The best houses were the houses with dogs. Then you walk, knock, wait and pet the doggie. There was some debate though […]

Brand New Reader Dinners Planned!
As you can tell from the picture below, I really really enjoy meeting my readers and sitting down and having a meal and a drink and just chatting. To me, nothing is more pleasurable than relaxing with friends over a good meal and that’s what I’m planning on doing as much as I can in […]
Leapin’ Lizard!
While I gasp at the 109 temperatures predicted for today’s high in Fresno, Mac’s in Hawaii with his dad…wearing baby lizards on his head! When I say we’re raising a wild child, I mean it! Mac is so funny and silly, and built so much like our English bulldogs I think he is one! I had […]
Brothers
Mac is beyond delighted having his two big brothers here in Hawaii with him. He loves his brothers and can’t keep away from them. The good thing is that the two bulldogs now have a reprieve. The bad thing is the brothers are Mac’s favorite activity. Fortunately, the boys had a great day on the […]
Waikiki Waves
One of my best friends from high school, Anne Morse, just arrived with her family in Hawaii for the next week. They’re out sight-seeing today and I’m taking care of family stuff but tonight we all hope to grab dinner in Waikiki together. I haven’t gotten any writing done since end of last week which […]
Mac Makes Friends
It’s the 4th of July weekend and I’m finishing my chapter 2 today of my new Harlequin, an intense ‘secret baby’ story set in Sicily. I’ve spent the past week working on chapter 2, tearing it apart, putting it back together, editing, tweaking, and just couldn’t figure out what was wrong until I realized that the stakes […]
Home In Hawaii
Mac has become very busy. Extremely busy. He loves to walk and run, explore and pull things apart. He loves to push things closed, too, including all doors, and sometimes his fingers are in between. I’ve been trying to keep Mac out of trouble by letting him help me whenever he can. There are some […]
An Afternoon With The Girls
I’ve been in Hawaii a week today, but before I left Bellevue last week, I had the chance to spend part of the afternoon with some very smart, very literate young ladies who attend Seattle’s French-American School together. I’d met one of the moms at a fundraiser back in April (at least I think it […]
Fittings
I leave in two weeks for Hawaii for the summer. It sounds fabulous but is also kind of wrenching as my two oldest sons will be with their dad for the first month and then come to me for the second–and I’ll be away for one of those weeks they’re with me attending Romance Writers […]
Another Bug
Apologies for not posting a new blog sooner but I’ve been sick–and traveling–for the past week and am still congested and snuffling and coughing. Mac, of course, came down with the cold, too. I knew it Saturday when he started to act a little crankier than he normally is and then Sunday he was feverish […]
