2022 huh?

Man the time flies.

I did find another artist, we worked hard at matching my series style and I published book 6.

However due to the lost momentum, book 7 and 8 had to be put on hold while I gave my editors other work to keep them also moving forwards.

This year is still pretty much sort my life out, and get my house back together.

The insurance denied all claims. The ombudsmen only managed to fight for 1 persons compensation, and it only covered the horrid increase on the insurance policy due to the possible claim.

The house looks good though, we are mostly back together, sleeping back in a bedroom with time to ourselves if needed.

I’ve started walking again but it’s hit and miss because of health and I’m eating better than I have all last year.

Fingers crossed this years a good one.

🙂 here’s some pics.

Surgery and stuff

It was a rough night, mostly cause I had stomach ache. Refeeding is hard. And it’s one of those things you push to the back of your mind and forget. But hurting is hurting. And so I got up early 3am and did what I usually do, I hung out, chatted to people and wrote.

It helps sometimes when you love a story so that even if on distracted days the story flows, just a bit slower.

Mum had her surgery and am glad she sounded much better. Fingers crossed for fast healing.

I have 3 chapter to write tomorrow on this book. About 9k then I can set this books aside while I edit book 2, and send in another series for edits.

With the house issues and the insurance people coming on Tuesday I have a busy ish week ahead. I am thinking of my new series… But not sure I will start book 2 yet. I will continue to self edit book 1 and then see how the week ends.

For those wondering what… Here’s the photos of the house saga

Dry rot discovered 21st July. Flooding and a well discovered in August.

Yes still not sorted and waiting on the insurance now for subsidence and broken drains.

It’s been a heck of a year.

Final delivery!

After Fridays mishap, it was good that my driver Keith from yesterday k ew where he was coming and had both parcels!

So that completes my little food trial for a while.

One vegan, yesterday, 1 veggie, and 1 meat.

Hopefully now I have some good healthy products that both Paul and I can eat, and I don’t have cook them which is part of the issue. The longer I have to smell it the worse it is.

I ate a bit more than yesterday, but it’s still tiny yet. So I know I’m not ready for these meal, good that they are frozen!

Had a rather broken writing day with these coming and other bits to do. But I am all ready for tomorrow with my characters and stats, should be a good day.

Feeling a little lost :(

There is a lot going on at my home at the moment, we’ve had two weeks of building work and so many other little things that have been bounced about over the last month. I can’t really catch you all up on things to be fair.

But today, I saw something that made me feel really sad. When someone touches your life in a very amazing, supportive way, and then all of a sudden they’re gone. Taken from this life we live, far far too soon.

What we live with, with mental disorders and eating problems of all aspects, nothing can hurt more than seeing someone so bright.. vanish.

I’ve witnessed this morning a lot of friends over this so so upset, and today. I am not sure how I feel, sad of course. To tears, yes. How do you grieve for a friend you never really met, but meant so much to you on such a personal level that not many can understand.

So this I guess is a heartfelt and sorrowful post. Hug those you love, share with those you can’t hug, the love and friendship you have with them. Support each other, talk and laugh. Life is so tough sometimes, and not everyone of us knows when that might end.

I AM BACK!

OMG guys, I’ve never been so frustrated or upset as I have been the last few weeks, losing sleep and worrying over my account…

I was logged out after a power failure at home. I’d recently had some major phone issues and hubby had also upgraded his phone, so that meant no 2-step authentification. Which my blog is set up for. And I have been locked out!

I have really just been going nuts…

I sent an email off to wordpress, and heard nothing. Presuming it went to spam I checked everything everyday for two weeks…. nothing. I had to email them from another account… and then finally got to talk to someone.

Over the course of the last week. We’ve been back and forth over the account, and I believe someone has reset it from 2-step…. or I’ve been hacked.

NEVER MIND… the fact is I’m back!

I’ve so so much to get you guys clued up on, reviews, and of course TSK’s progress. More will be coming tomorrow 🙂

Love and hugs…

Dawn
