Christmas

I run a daycare and I've run into a problem with my profession.

Whenever I start to sing Jingle Bells with the kids, I immediately want to sing "Batman Smells" and that would not go over well.

Merry Christmas to my one follower.  I hope you have a "smelly" new year.

Why everyone should be more like a 9 month old....

At first I was paranoid about what I would blog because “people could read it” but now I’ve realized that I only have one follower so why am I worried.  This is more of a way to vent or think than anything else.  Keeping that in mind, here are my top ten reasons everyone should behave more like a nine month old:

10. Cartoons can make you laugh even if you don’t fully understand them.

9.  You don’t care if you’re dirty or covered in food as long as it tastes good and you’re having fun.

8.  Everything and everyone is an adventure.

7.  There’s a diaper to cushion your bottom, so you’re not afraid to fall.

6.  You can be super loud and babble about nothing and everyone thinks you’re cute, not insane.

5.  Have you tried Pineapple Pear baby food?

4.  You’re proud of yourself just for standing up.

3.  Your mom and dad are the most important people in your life and you don’t have to worry about impressing them.  They’re going to love you anyway.

2.  People clap when you wave.

1.  If you smile at someone, it could make their day.

To Blog or Not to Blog

Finding time to blog has turned out to be somewhat difficult for me. I just keep wondering what do people want to hear about and the answer is… I have no idea. So I guess I should just blog about things that are important to me.

I’m sitting here watching Aladdin on TV. Of course, I own the movie but it’s always so much better for some reason when it’s on the television. It always drives my husband nuts that I do that. Watch movies on TV when we own them. But I get so much done on commercials. I’m even recording it. And pause for A Whole New World…….

Beautiful. I love the clouds. Like creamy white puffs of cotton candy I want to dance upon. I wish I had a magic carpet to fly on. But I don’t see that happening anytime soon.

I know I’m odd, but sometimes I want to shout to the world, I do believe in fairies, while clapping my hands like a maniac. Probably why I do in home child care as my day job. At night I try to write, though those kids take a lot out of me. They’re not quite as harsh as the publishing industry but it’s close.

Anyway, I must get on with my Aladdin watching. I might watch it again when I’m done. And remind me to blog again soon because I’m pretty sure I’m not going to get any followers with this drivel I’ve just posted.

What I'm reading now...

Though this tends to change often and I really should be writing instead of reading, I’m enjoying this series so much right now I feel like I should talk about it. Right now I’ve just started on The Lords of the Underworld series by Gena Showalter. I’ve only read the first three books (Darkest Night, Darkest Kiss, and Darkest Passion) but they were AMAZING.

For those of you that don’t know about them, the back story is this. Pandora didn’t open the box. The box was opened by a group of Zeus’ guards who were jealous that the responsibility of protecting the box went to Pandora when so many of them were more worthy. When the box was opened, the demons escaped but instead of being allowed to run amok on all of civilization, the demons were each forced inside one of the warriors who opened the box. When the two were combined, man and demon, they became inseparable so that the man could not live without the demon. The demon, however, would be released upon the world if his immortal warrior were to die.


For thousands of years the warriors have been learning how to control their demons and how to survive knowing they cannot love and they cannot live the life they had before. They are enslaved by the will of their demon. Reyes, whose demon is pain, must constantly inflict pain on himself by slashing his arms or even jumping off buildings, so he will not inflict pain on others. Paris, whose demon is promiscuity, must have sex to not weaken, but he can never have sex with the same woman twice. There are also others, Violence, Death, Misery, Secrets, and Lies to name a few. I believe there are 13 demon/warriors in all, though there have been hints that were more demons than warriors so there may be other people possessed as well. I can’t wait to find out.

These are all romance novels and I’m really mad that I am poor because there are three more out that I want to buy. I have to find out what happens. I’m saving my pennies now and I recommend these to anyone who loves paranormal romance. I’ll let you know if I get to read any more of them.

Gena Showalter also has an Atlantis series that I've read a couple of.  They are very good as well.  I recommend The Vampire's Bride.
