Good morning to everyone. I hope that everyone had a restful night? I slept pretty good and woke up a little groggy but after a shower, I am doing and feeling better. I am going to be leaving soon to go to a doctor's appointment. It is ten forty-one here in Dalton, Georgia and the morning is beautiful and not so cold. I look forward to my day.
I am still writing on my addictions book and should be done adding all the drug information by tonight which leaves adding the resource page and editing. So, it looks like I will have it finished by midnight on the last day of the month. I am pretty excited to get it out there to the world. I am hopeful that it helps someone understand their addiction and helps them become a recovering addict.
This post will be short due to my having to leave in a few minutes and I still have to fix my hair. I hope everyone has a wonderful day and a blessed one. "Happy Birthday" to everyone with a birthday today and may you all have many more to come. Please keep the homeless in your thoughts and prayers. Take care.

Good afternoon to everyone. How are we doing today? I am feeling pretty good today so far and everything seems to be going okay. I am sitting here after cleaning the house up and eating some pizza rolls for a snack. My sugar was only seventy-nine, so I figured that I better eat something to keep it up a little. Everyone is gone taking care of errands while I sit here and take care of some things for me.
I have been writing for a few hours every night and I am getting closer to having my book done. I am so proud of myself for my accomplishments and no one can take that from me. This book is full of information on almost every addiction and drug information on certain addictive drugs. I am writing it to help people understand what an addiction is and does, plus give them the tools to watch out for in case they have a loved one who they suspect to be on drugs.
Next month, I will be working on the second book of Immortal Passion and look forward to writing it as well. I get lost in my writing when it comes to stories that I create and I find a piece of me in each story. I love the fact that some people have gotten my books and left reviews, it helps me to write better. I think today will be a good day for us and we are getting straightened out on bills.
Now it is time for me to go get writing. Even though I am close to finishing, I still have quite a bit of writing to do. Please keep the homeless and Hope Station USA in your thoughts and prayers. They need our support to help them get back to living the way they were meant to live. "Happy Birthday" to all those who are another year older today, may you have many more to come. To everyone else, have a great day and know that you are loved and cared about. Take care.

Hello everyone. It is now noon here in Dalton, Georgia and pretty wet outside with a cloudy sky. I have been up for about an hour now and just got some of my things for today done and just finishing my first cup of coffee ready for the second one. I guess my husband has been up for a while now because he is in the living room with everyone else.
I am in my room with my dogs and working on my daily list. I have a lot of writing stuff to get done for the day and I am nearly done with my addictions book. I have several people wanting a copy of it and I am just getting near the end before having to do the resources page. I have been working diligently on it every day and pleased with my progress. It is still a beast to me because of all the information in it and right now it is over thirty-two thousand words and still not finished yet. I perceive it to be around fifty thousand by the time I am done with it.
My next project for next month is to write the next book to Immortal Passion. I already have it started and can't wait to get into the story of it all. If you like vampire stories, Immortal Passion is a book you should read. I am proud of my progress with so many books published and available for everyone to read.
We are also waiting for a passenger van to be brought over here that we are purchasing for Hope Station USA to transport supplies and food to the homeless and also for the new program we are trying to get off the ground. I am hopeful for a better year this year. We will be traveling between Florida, Georgia, and hopefully Tennessee this year. I am motivated to get things going and have to begin making calls to set up tables to collect donations.
Well, time to get going and I wish everyone a "Happy Monday" and a "Happy Birthday" to all those celebrating today. May you all be blessed with more to come. Please keep Hope Station USA and the homeless in your thoughts and prayers. Have a blessed day and take care.

Good morning everyone. It is ten o'clock here in Dalton, Georgia and a bit chilly and cloudy outside. I have been awake for almost an hour and finally drinking a cup of coffee. my husband is still asleep and the dogs are eating their food. the rest of the house is finally awake and everyone is planning their day. I began working on the drug section of my book last night and it looks like I will on schedule to have it done at the end of the month.
AS far as how I feel this morning, I have a slight headache and feel blah today, but I cannot let this affect my day because I need to get my book done. I still have to do some more research on some things and collect pictures for the drugs, so it will be a time crunch.
I hope everyone is having a good day so far and that you are prosperous in your work. I think about everyone every day because that is who I am. I have a heart and compassion for every living being and creature. Please keep the homeless in your thoughts and prayers as the temperatures drop to almost freezing or below. Keep Hope Station USA in your thoughts and prayers as well that we will obtain the funding needed for our new program that will help end homelessness.
I hope that everyone is getting their free ebook from Amazon titled "Recipe for Cannibalism", I am running a free giveaway on the ebook to allow everyone to read it and then tell me what you think? Here is the link https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07ZZL847F. The free giveaway is going on through midnight Friday night EST, so get your copy now.
Well, time for me to get to work, but I am going to go shower first so that it will wake me up a little more and also help with my headache. I wish a prosperous day for everyone and a "Happy Birthday" to those who are celebrating today. May you all have many more to come. Take care.

Good morning to everyone, it is seven thirty-six in the morning here in Dalton, Georgia and pretty chilly outside enough to freeze water solid. I have been u since about six forty-five and I am almost finished with my first cup of coffee. There is no one else awake in the house so, I have a chance to write peacefully. The only sound that you can here is my television and my husband and one dog snoring. All eight dogs and my husband are still in bed which I am grateful for since they woke me up at about four in the morning because they had to go potty.
About an hour from now, I will be finished writing about the regular addictions and then it will be about writing my story with addictions and then on to writing about each drug. That to me will be the easiest part of this book because I will just be listing the effects and info about each drug, so the book should be done on the last day of this month. It has taken me so long because this is a beast of a book full of a lot of information not to mention the resource section in the back and the companion book that will go with it.
I just went and got my second cup of coffee and my husband a cup as well. He is trying to wake up now and this is somewhat a section of time just for us. I love him very much. He is my soulmate I think and we might have our disagreements at times, but we still love each other. Before I forget, one of my books is on sale this week until Friday and it is titled "Recipe for Cannibalism" which is a crime thriller ad I think a lot of people would enjoy it. Here is the link to it, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07ZZL847F. Get your free ebook before midnight Friday and have a good read.
Well, I need to get going on things so that I can accomplish things today. Please keep the homeless and hungry in your thoughts and prayers during this winter season. "Happy Birthday" to everyone celebrating one today and may you have many more. To everyone else, have a blessed and prosperous day because the weekend is fast approaching. Take care.

Good morning to all. It is a partly sunny day here with still a chill in the air. it just turned ten o'clock in the morning and I have been up for about an hour now and have already drunk my first cup of coffee and got the dogs out to potty. My husband is still drinking his and sitting in bed. I have a few errands to run today and then it is back to book writing.
I have just a couple of regular everyday addictions left to write about before I move on to the drugs part of the book. That will be fun because I have already experienced a few of them and when doing my research, I learned a lot more. the drug section will move quickly and I still have to include my story in it which will also move quickly, so the goal is to have the book done by the end of the month and I think that I will hit that goal with no interruptions.
I also need to get a few things on my to-do list done since I don't have a set routine for Sundays. It is the only day of the week that is open to get other stuff done that needs to get done. I began walking around the block yesterday which is equal to a quarter of a mile to start getting myself back in shape and healthy again.
Well, time to get stuff done and pour my second cup of coffee. "Happy Birthday" to everyone with a birthday today and may you be blessed with many more. I hope all of you have a blessed Sunday and please keep the homeless and hungry in your thoughts and prayers. Please pray for Hope Station USA to be able to get the funding needed for our new self-sufficiency program which will help the homeless get off the streets and bless our food outreach program as we travel between Georgia and Florida feeding the hungry. Take care.

Hello everyone. How are we doing today? I have been up for a few hours now and it is one eleven in the afternoon, but it looks so cloudy and cold outside that it doesn't even feel like the afternoon. Everyone is moving around in the house and some are getting ready to leave while I sit here and work on my book some more. The goal is to have the addictions book done at the end of this month which I am still doing pretty good on time so far.
I need to do my walk around the block here shortly to add to my steps for my fitness app. The goal is to walk fifteen thousand steps daily to lose some weight and get myself healthy again. I have to see my diabetes doctor this next Friday and she is not going to be well with my blood sugars since they have been high since Thanksgiving. I am also going to get back into their program to lose weight also and that will be fun, lol.
I should be finishing up the regular addictions today and then starting on the drugs which will be learning for me also since my drug of choice back in the day was crack cocaine. I haven't dealt with any other drugs, so writing about the others will be education for me as well as my readers. I still have to write my story in the book too.
Well, it is time to go walk, so I hope everyone has a beautiful Saturday with your loved ones and "Happy Birthday" to everyone turning another year older today. Please keep the homeless and Hope Station USA in your thoughts and prayers as we move into colder temperatures this winter season. Have a blessed day. Take care.

Hello everyone. How are you doing? I need some time and space to vent over stupid shit to others but most of it is important to me. Things like for instance, my husband thinks that I am very smart, I don't see it, but he is constantly volunteering me to be google search and information for everyone. That shit drives me crazy because that is what the internet is for, not me. People who spend a lot of time on their phones should know how to look things up on google, instead of them having to do the work, my husband volunteers me to do it for everyone like I should know all the answers in the universe.
Another thing that is so minor is food. When I buy something and state that it is mine or for me to eat and when I am ready to go get it and someone else has used it all, that irks me because they were the ones who told me to inform them if something is specially bought for me. Things are really getting to me because of my environment, what's going on around me, and sometimes even the people around me annoy the crap out of me.
I feel so awkward because I am not like everyone else and have my own core values and such that it makes me stand out as being the bad guy because I don't believe what others believe, but I must conform to their ways in order to keep the peace. It feels so much like deja vu because again, I am having to put another mask on to hide who I really am. It almost kills me to have to resort to such drastic measures that change my life and who I am totally.
When does the masquerade stop and life begin? I don't know what else to do but be what everyone else wants me to be no matter if it makes me happy or not. Maybe God has a reason for this, I could only hope, or there is something bigger going on that is beyond my scope of intelligence.
It is driving issues between my husband and me and I can't help but question my own existence in this place.
Sorry for having to vent but it has got to come to a head at some point. My mental health medication can't block out everything. Thanks for listening. Have a great night.

Good morning to all. It is ten sixteen in the morning here in Dalton, Georgia and very cloudy and windy outside. I have been up for about an hour now and having my first cup of coffee because I took a shower while it was brewing. I feel fresh this morning and ready to get things done. My husband is still sleeping and the dogs are in the backroom eating and playing.
I am motivated this morning to knock out my whole list and have plenty of time for me and my husband. I have some writing to do and then I am going to revise my website and Hope Station's website. It is time for a new look at things and I still have some published books that I need to get copies of to update my website with.
I am working a couple smaller books at the same time as working my bigger book. All I want to do is write and see my stories come to life. I have eleven books published with a few more due for publishing at the end of this month. My husband is still very supportive of my writing and is proud of me for doing it and telling my stories to the world.
I do have a few things on my to-do list which is separate from my daily stuff to do like raking up the backyard and cleaning the backroom where the dogs play. These things come as I have time to do them and I think that I will get my list done today completely and then have time to do the backroom. I feel like I am ready to explode because my anxiety is so high right now and the anticipation of getting my list done today as well.
Well, I need to get going on other things. I hope everyone is having a wonderful Saturday and "Happy Birthday" to those of you who are celebrating today. May you all have many more to come. Please keep the homeless in your thoughts and prayers and please pray for Hope Station USA to thrive this year and reach our goal to begin building tiny communities for the program to help the homeless become self-sufficient. Take care.

Good morning to all. It is eight-thirty here in Dalton, Georgia with a gray cloudy sky. My husband just left to go to a doctor's appointment and I am here working on my list. I was pleased with yesterday because I completed the majority of my list and still manage to have time for my husband. It is going to be a trial and error thing right now until I can perfect it and get on the normal routine. Once I have it memorized, things will move quicker and then there will be more time for pleasure activities.
Sorry, I had to walk away for a minute to take care of my dogs and sweep and mop the house. I have taken all of my lists and combined them into one to simplify things for me and keep my stress level down. My sugars are running high due to stress, I think. I stayed in my room pretty much all day yesterday and my sugars ran normal and I even had a bought of hypoglycemia again. I will get it regulated eventually.
Well, time to finish working. I have another short story to write for my erotica book and some other things. I hope everyone has an awesome Friday and "Happy Birthday" to all those who are another year older today. May you all have many more to come. Please keep the homeless in your thoughts and prayers during the cold season. Also, we have obtained a passenger bus for Hope Station to accommodate traveling with supplies and eventually when our program of the tiny community gets set up we will be able to transport people back and forth to work. So, "Yay" for us. It is another milestone for Hope Station USA, so please pray for the funding we need to get the project off the ground and begin building. Take care.

1/9/2020

Good morning everyone. How are we doing today? I have been up since around eight o'clock and it is now nine seventeen. I have finished drinking my cup of coffee and now onto my diet soda while I sit here and work. I managed to get half of my new list done yesterday but with interruptions so I know that without distractions I can get everything done and feel accomplished.
My blood sugars have been out of control since moving back here and having access to food anytime. Dealing with gastroparesis is also the culprit for my overeating. Once I start eating for the day I find it hard to stop. I am going to try and stay away from food so much today and see what happens with my sugars then. I half to see my doctor at the end of this month and she is not going to be happy about what my sugars are doing.
Today, I shall get most if not all my list done today because I am starting earlier than yesterday on it and see how long it takes me to get everything done. I have to find a happy medium for me and I find it hard to do with all the drama and chaos in my life right now. I am finding it hard to concentrate on any one thing, so I am working on multiple projects to keep it fresh so I don't get stale.
Well, time to get to work. I hope everyone has a blessed day and "Happy Birthday" to those celebrating today. May you have many more to come. Please keep Hope Station USA and the homeless in your thoughts and prayers today. Take care.

Good morning everyone. It is nice to see everyone this new year. I hope that it brings happiness and blessings to all. I just got up out of bed not long ago and drank my first and only cup of coffee. I really wasn't in the mood for coffee this morning. I am now drinking some kool-aid and writing this post. My goal to stop smoking hasn't worked yet but I have cut down with the help of the Chantix. I don't have the cravings so much, but I wanted to stop altogether but right now there is a lot of stress in my life which is causing me to keep smoking. I am working on it though.
Did everyone have a nice new year beginning? My husband and I went to bed early like we always do because it is just another date and we don't drink or do any partying, so it didn't make sense to stay awake. We heard the fireworks go off in our neighborhood and knew that it was the new year already, but I went right back to sleep.
I have taken every one of my lists and check off sheets and combined them into one simple list for everything because I felt overwhelmed trying to get everything done. I am beginning the new list right now and analyzing how long it will take me to get everything done in a day and then I will know how to revise it if I need to.
My sugar has been so bad the last couple of days that it took me to the hospital the other night because I knew that it was over seven hundred. The meter has been reading "HI" ever since. I am back taking my Novolog to help with the high sugars and I know a lot of it is due to stress. When we moved from here and went to our property, living there my sugars were running perfect and I even had a few episodes of HYPOglycemia and was not having to take insulin. Now, being back here in this house or town has made my sugars go uncontrolled again.
I have been keeping an eye on my Amazon reports and I have been selling books slowly due to not paying for any ads yet because of the lack of money. I have been running ads on Twitter and Facebook for as posts until I can get our bills back to normal and be able to afford to pay for ads. I have ads up on free sites and I monitor them casually. I have half of my addictions book done and instead of making it two books, I will just leave it as one book with a companion book and have it set to be finished at the end of this month.
Well, it is time to get other things done with my list so I will say goodbye for now. "Happy Birthday" to everyone celebrating today and may you have many more to come. Please keep the homeless in your thoughts and prayers during this cold season. Take care.
