Sick Sick Sick

First cold of the season. I’m not enjoying it. So far I’ve consumed 17 Popsicles, 13 cups of tea, most made by my daughter, one bowl of ch

Decongesting Contraband

I jumped through hoops for this

icken soup– I really don’t like chicken soup– and a half a box of Sudafed, which necessitated a trip to the pharmacy, handing over my driver’s license and signing and dating an official looking form. I asked if I could have two boxes, because of the hassle of this procedure, anticipating that I or one of the kids might get sick again in the future. Answer from pharmacy tech: No.

Sigh. I don’t know if that’s a national thing or just a state law restricting my access to Sudafed, but those meth dealers really piss me off when I’m sick.

Having some good news though– A) new book cover: check it out on the Nobody’s Hero page up there, top left. I love it.

And 2) really good sales lately. Got a blog post on bargain ebooks which made for lots more sales, woohoo. Next month I get to be a part of The Romance Reviews big November event. I’m looking forward to that. Lots of prizes– winning books, especially, so check it out.

Between getting the kids settled back into school and into the new routines–and did i mention I’ve had a really horrible cold for freaking 7 days now? OK, I did mention that, but did I also mention that it was sort of starting for an entire week before that? It’s so beautiful outside, and I’ve run about a mile in the last two weeks. So by the time I work back up to three miles, I’ll have missed the entire fall.

Okay, enough whining. Hoping that life settles down enough to get Iced Out published by Thanksgiving. I’m still saying that out loud in public so I can’t pretend it’s not a real deadline.
