Things have been crazy...

Well, I finally received a notice from Cafemom that I better check my page here. LOL. Has it been that long since I've gotten back to Cafemom? I've had so many books in edits--released as well. Then, Hurricane Ike changed this region's priorities. We just got our new roof and are working on some rennovations. The new countertops opened a whole new can of worms. I suppose that's the way rennovations go. ;) But AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! I also just booked a trip to Disney World. Just the thought of all the walking and screaming is wearing me down even more after the start...

I sold another story~ SACRIFICIAL HEARTS!

Comments (2)
I just heard my publisher is sending me a contract for my short Valentines Day story, SACRIFICIAL HEARTS. This is a Time Guardian tale set in the present day.  A woman redefines love when she meets a time guardian in present-day Scotland and both embark on an unlikely union to save all known history.She has no choice but to rely on a member of a dangerous cult for protection. He can't seem to convince her that his brotherhood has only her welfare in mind. Only the fairies know what the future holds as the Gods send two SACRIFICIAL HEARTS racing toward their destiny. ~Skhye

Kid-Friendly Dinosaur Excavation~

Be the first to comment
You've got to take your kids to the Houston-area's Woodlands Mall. There's a dinosaur excavation, a children's museum, a carousel, and shopping... the Disney Store, Gymboree, Pottery Barn Kids, and The Children's Place. Right next to the dinosaur dig and the Houston Museum of Natural Science's store, there's a play place--FREE. We had to ride the carousel 5 times. $1/ride. The mall was beautiful. There's a Barnes & Noble (certainly with a children's area inside) on a shopping street that's loaded with fountains, sitting areas, and a...

Redbook's Article- WHO GETS BREAST CANCER & WHO SURVIVES?

Be the first to comment
A friend was asking about breast cancer info today. So, I decided to summarize the statistics in this month's Redbook article by Hallie Levine Sklar,. {{Thank you, Ms. Sklar!}}YOUNG WOMEN WHO GET BREAST CANCER ARE MORE LIKELY TO DIE- these are women diagnosed before age 40. Their tumors are more aggressive. 82% of these women have a 5-yr life expectancy rate. Whereas, 85% of older women have the same life expectancy rate. Younger women have denser breast tissue which is harder to detect masses with mammograms. But these same women are less likely to get annual mammograms. So,...

All Aboard the E-I-E-I-O Train~ Old MacDonald's Farm in Humble, TX

Comments (1)
If you haven't bothered to venture up to Humble and wander around Old MacDonald's Farm, you don't know what you're missing. There are different kinds of swings, mounds of dirt for climbing, slides, forts, a ball pit, a one-foot deep pool, teepees, a barn full of hay to jump in, a volleyball sandpit, the EIEIO train to ride as much as you like, lots of covered pavillions and picnic tables, pony rides, but don't forget the animals! We purchased grain to feed the ducks, emu, turkeys, chickens, pigeons, prairie dogs, sheep, goats, llamas, donkeys, horses, ponies, cow,...

Pregnancy After Back Surgery with Gestational Diabetes~ a scientist's experience

Comments (2)
Pregnancy weight gain? What is healthy? First of all, our culture is so caught up in the idea of being beautiful and rail thin that we take pregnancy as an opportunity to eat anything we'd like. I couldn't do that. I became pregnant--planned the event when my bones had fused enough for pregnancy--six months after I had one level fused in my lower back. Fine. No problem. But I was terrified to gain too much weight and stress the adjacent levels. I had to don my thinking hat and be rational...Normal weight gain during pregnancies in our culture is 20-30 pounds. I know lots of...
