Chasin High Noon

I've been busy working on setting up a book release! Things have been going a little crazy, but we're holding on. There will be a new post later this week... Until then I'll just leave this here...

Stay Warm this Winter with this New Paranormal Romance Novella

Chasing High Noon, the third book in the Star Crossed Series by paranormal romance author J.R. White, will be hitting the shelves on Jan 31, 2019. For those engaged readers who need a quick read, this novella is sure to be a hit. Continue the journey with Malcolm and Meredith as they work through the strained details of their relationship and deal with the internal back stabbing of the Blackburn family. The Lunar Shadow is only a day away and now there’s a stranger worming his way into our leading lady’s life.

Chasing High Noon

Overworked, Meredith Blackburn is on a deadline. Restoring the Dragon’s Eye, a family relic that connects them to their magical roots, has turned into a trial by fire. With her family breathing down her neck, the Lunar Shadow can’t come soon enough.

Malcolm Blackwood is sure Meredith is still there somewhere, but with a new attendant and family pressure, she’s just too wrapped up to notice that things are wrong. Warned about forbidden magic and desperate to support his lover, he’s tiptoeing through a mine field.

Will the Blackburns be satisfied? Or will Meredith be cast out?

Coming to Amazon Jan 31, 2019 in both Print and Digital

Perk Points Apps: PerkTV

(Written in early November 2018. Just posting. Updates about Perk Points coming soon!)


So being a work from home mom means I spend the odd time here and there looking for some ways to earn money passively. Passive income is money earned without a lot of effort. It is never going to payout enough to pay the bills, but it can help with the little things.

The newest thing I've found is Perk Points. This is a family of apps used to earn points that can be cashed out for gift cards or even through PayPal. I've only been using a few of the apps for a week and out of that only a few days, so this review isn't too in depth yet.

So far, the largest and easiest pay out seems to be the PerkTV app. You can let videos play on your phone while you .. do whatever you want. I let it play while doing housework. It will just roll out videos a minute of two in length that payout 1 to 3 perk points each and you can just let it play for hours. So the points really add up.

I earned somewhere between 20 and 50 Perk Points when I was folding laundry this morning. While that doesn't seem like a lot, considering 1000 points roughly equals $1, it adds up over time.

If you're household is anything like mine you've got an old phone laying around somewhere. I grabbed up one of these older phones and linked it to the wifi so these apps aren't even taking up space on the phone I use!

Welcome 2019

It's 2019 and I'm not going to lie about this. 20 years ago I was old enough to party like it was 1999. Man, that makes person feel old. Still it's been a great ride and I hope it keeps rolling great. My daughter went back to school today and I've finally been able to turn on my computer to get some productive work done. So, let's start looking at what's up.

Over the Winter break Lou decided she wanted to learn how to sew. This was an awesome moment for me. She watched me hand sew her quilt. Yeah, you read that right. I hand stitched a full sized quilt. Not something I care to repeat, but there's some pride in it.

The sewing went alright. Lou picked out a handful of felt pieces she had tucked away in her room somewhere and said she wanted to make a quilt for some of her stuffed animals. I gave her a need and thread and she got to work. Sitting next to me she has sew four of the six pieces together and it's not looking half bad. Then I found something.

Little felt monsters. These lil guys are so cute and adorable I couldn't resit. While Lou worked on her quilt I set about making a couple of these things. She got interested and decided that she wanted to try her hand at it too. The results are in and they're smile inducing.

The first picture here is the monster Lou worked on. The arms were forgotten in the blur of learning. So this guy needs lots of hugs and love. The next pic is of monsters I worked on while she did her thing. These were so fun to make and I may end up making a few more.

     

New Years is always an event at our house. The fluffy family has to come inside and stay inside as the locals like to shot off fireworks. We all stay up to count down the new year. Shader, bless her, has a fear of loud noises, so come 2019 she was safe in the bedroom, but Demon and Yepa had fun with confetti. That stuff went everywhere! Lou loves playing with it too and there is still shiny pieces drifting around the carpet.

My applesauce cake came out a bit odd. It split into almost even slices once I flipped it out of the pan. Still, it may not look the best, but it tasted great. Though, Lou has threatened to send the picture into NailedIt. Apparently she wants to get me on the Netflix show.

2019 holds a lot in store. I've got two planned book releases. The Star Crossed Series is starting to wrap up this year and I'm looking forward to a few book signings at the local book store. Lou is turning 10 and I'm not sure I'm ready for that.

Later, there will be a few posts on those monsters and I'll share my recipe for the applesauce cake.

Have a great 2019!!

Vlogmas with V

My dear friend, who moved so far away a few years ago, has started her Vlogmas videos on YouTube and I'm loving it!

On Vlogmas Day 1 V showed off her Dollar Tree holiday haul and it didn't disappoint!

Shader Aging Issues

Like humans, dogs and cats age. The older they get the more we have to help. My oldest girl, Shader, is 13, she'll be 14 in Feb 2019. She's had a number of problems through her life that my husband and I had to help her through, but this is the most heartbreaking.

A week ago Shader was having trouble getting up. Her back legs were weak. She didn't seem to be hurting, but she was having major trouble on her own. With nearly week left on her antibiotics for a slight infection on her paw, I decided to wait until her check up to speak with her Vet about it. The checkup was for a growth that's shown up on her shoulder.

Yeah, an infection from a sore she just won't leave alone, a growth on her shoulder and then her back legs just didn't seem to be working like they should. I've cried a good bit in these last few weeks. Shader has been with me since she came home from the shelter at four months old. She's stood between me and trouble. She's been an awesome coffee buddy, cuddling on the couch.

At the vet's office she was scared, she always is, but I felt hopeful because as much as she want to get out of there she was in better control of her back legs. Determination is a strong motivator. The vet was careful with Shader and diagnosed either arthritis or spinal stenosis, both of which have the same treatment. He sent us home with a nerve pill to couple with her pain pills and wants a call back in a few weeks to know if they've been working.

That growth on her shoulder, hasn't grown too much and he's more concerned with getting Shader walking again. She isn't to be using steps or stairs and she can't run off on her own anymore. Someone will have to watch her close during outside time. Otherwise she's to rest.

My wonderful hubby found a pallet at work that is perfect for a ramp. It's setup in the carport to help Shader get outside. Now, I just have to keep my mind off the age and on the treatment. She starts the new pills tonight and I'm hopeful that they'll help.

Peace friends and take care.
