Livin' La Vida Llama ~ A Lighthearted Look at Life Over 60
I'll admit it. I'm spoiled. The day our dishwasher decided to quiet quit our household, I thought I could handle it with grace and efficiency. How hard could it be with only two of us living in the house? Plus, we were going away for a weekend, so that only left a little over two... Continue Reading →
One of our kids recently asked me: “When does one feel like they have achieved adult status?” My response? I’ll let you know when I get there! For me, even at sixty, growing older does not mean totally growing up. I still love to play on the floor with my grandchildren, even if it’s harder... Continue Reading →
After having read Hyland Spy recently, I could not wait for Highland Ruse to come out. Oh, and I was not disappointed. For, as wonderful as Hyland Spy was, Hyland Ruse was even better! Well-crafted and heart-touching, Delilah and Kaid's story was nearly impossible to put down. It's full of adventure with very strong female characters. Although... Continue Reading →
Do you have discounts for seniors? It's not a hard question, but when you're getting used to the fact that you're over 60 it's still a brand-spankin' new thing to think about. I am totally guilty of thinking things like: Should I ask for a discount? (YES!) Does it make me look cheap or needy?... Continue Reading →
One of my favorite authors liked a response I wrote on another favorite author’s Reader page. OMG One of my favorite authors liked my response! And responded thanking me! Me! OMG (takes a deep breath) I haven’t written here in weeks. I could blame long covid fatigue or brain fog, or a truly beastly cold,... Continue Reading →
Oh my. I absolutely love Eileen Dreyer's writing style, and Three Times a Lady is no exception. Pip and Beau's story grabbed me from the very start and I did not want to let go. Now, I have to admit, I did not read the first two books in this series. Normally, if I'm going... Continue Reading →
Mara and Alex's story in Highlander in Her Bed unfolds within rich and heartfelt descriptions of Scotland. The author's beautifully chosen words brought me back to times when I visited there and fell in love with the country. The book is filled with elements of fantasy (he is a ghost, after all). There were a... Continue Reading →
Having read the first four books in the Highland Talents Heritage series by Willa Blair, I was ready for a good story. It was a great story. It was an on-the-edge-of-my-seat, oh-no-I-can't-read-further-but-can't-put-it-down and an oh-what-a-romance story. It was an I'm-sorry-it-ended-when-is-the-next-one story. It is important to note that Eilidh and Bhaltair's story stood beautifully on its... Continue Reading →
When I realized this book was a sequel, I grabbed the first book: "New Year's Through the Looking Glass." It was so good I read it in two sittings and immediately jumped into "Madness Through the Looking Glass." What a great week of reading this was!Before I go any further, I highly recommend you pick...

The company where my husband works, and where I once worked, had a layoff today. It was huge, it was difficult for all involved, and I was sure I had a grip on things. I reminded friends that were still there to take care of themselves. Doing their usual routine, eating well, and getting decent... Continue Reading →
