Happy January 2024
Happy January.
Iowa is hoarding all of our snow, but we do have the freezing temps we’re so famous for in balmy Minnesota.
I finally got over pneumonia and was blessed with Covid this week after attending two funerals. 2024 is off to a rocking start. Like that bouncy clown that keeps getting knocked down and springing back up again, I’m trying to rebound. I hope you are staying warm and well. And making soup.
I do want to warn you: if you’re looking for a serious book, then skip Stay Out of That Room. Here are a few reasons why:
- It may urge you to wear eye patches and wild patterned muumuus. Consider the fashion consequences before diving into this book.
- This book will surely be your ultimate downfall if you have even the slightest affection for cookies. When you’ve devoured the book, your pant size will grow exponentially, and your dentist might consider sending you a handwritten thank-you note.
- The time travel to the 1960s may launch new earworms from the Beatles or Beach Boys into your subconscious. The endless music may cause toe-tapping at the dinner table and cause you to burst into song at the grocery store.
If you want to take the risk, please pop over to Amazon or contact me directly.
Thanks for all the love you sent me for my new website.
Meanwhile, the Big Bus Adventure is wending its way through the cycle of edits.
Thank you to all who support my writing. I appreciate you more than you know.
