Hunting for stories...

As my kids head off to school, I run out to interview and research for my ghost book. I have run into Historical Societies that do not want to share so far. What could be next? Last night I contacted someone for a story I had known about, but wanted an inside source on. I am very excited! She will give me an interview and I may have gotten another lead from this person for another story.


I know October will bring all of the good stories out into the open, but I would love to be done wi

Summer days, are you ending soon?

As an avid lover of all things autumn and fall, I cannot WAIT to let go of these hot and humid days and embrace the pumpkin spice latte season around the bend.


Today, as I was cleaning and vacuuming, I noticed it was a little darker than usual outside. It was raining!! I was jumping for joy! It only lasted 15 minutes. ugh...

The Hanek Hotel


I have been so busy this past two weeks. It is not because I have projects to work on - although I do. It is season for our house to become a hotel for family and friends.


When we lived near Orlando, FL and worked at Disney, we had people coming out of the woodwork. Every year from April to October, we ha

White Gloves?

Well, this week I have at least three books to read. My husband is on a short vacation. Now, both sisters-in law are coming for a visit. I love having people over - don't get me wrong, but I am destined to clean and clean and clean some more for the entourage arriving today.


I am sure some people come to visit with white gloves in hand, ready to find a way to criticize your cleaning ability. The funny thing is, I love a clean house, I have the ability, I just believe that there are mor

Ho Hum

Ahhhhh.... Sunday morning! The day of absolute rest! I have plans to do as little as possible today. With my hubby working till noon and then back to close up the country club at 7, we can't do a whole lotta running around. I will vacuum, finish the laundry and do the dishes today. That is it!! I also plan to methodically devour the Sunday Newspaper.


I love paper delivery. It's like Christmas!! You walk out to you newspaper box every morning, and abracadabra - you have a newspaper, pro

Amy, thanks for inviting me to be your friend. You know I'm not computer literate and when I got here it didn't say what I'm supposed to do, so I imagine I don't have to do nothing and we're friends!

Sorry about the message not getting there the way it was sent. I can't say why this took place, I am sorry about the photbucket links and just as stumped about that too. The pic was just a banner of my own design that I use at the close of each comment.

I definitly will guest blog soon and I had a blast, but am sure that I consumed most of the air in Rocky Mount that day. I guess I TWOL is just a pipe dream of mine, huh? I would like a coffee morning for us and other local authors or friends to get together.
I will be on later tonight to write my story for your blog. I am going to stick with the Gettysburg story. Talk to you later!

Hi Amy!
Our visit was fun...we should do that more often! Girls morning out. How about guest blogging on www.Spiritualvisitations.blogspot.com? I know you've got to have a story or two. Maybe that lighthouse where Ghost Hunters visited in Florida?
Talk to you later!

MORGAN'S OWN BLOGSPOT

Who's Doing Cyber Monday?

I'm very carefully going to check out the Cyber Monday deals. I have a few items in mind that I plan to buy, but it would be very nice if they'd go on sale and save me some money. I won't be spending much. Can't afford to do so this year.

What about you?

Did You Shop on Black Friday?

There's still time to take the poll to the left about what you ate at Thanksgiving.
About Black Friday -
The DH despises mob scenes, but my brother and I do love the adventure of shopping on Black Friday. We weren't courageous enough to get up at the crack of dawn, though, so we did miss out on a few goodies, like the snuglee blankets and pots and pans sets at Menards, and some other items. I did manage to get some work gloves at almost 50 cents each pair, and a boot/shoe dryer which sounded interesting and was less than $9.00. The biggest extravagance there was this turntable with MP3 encoding/AM FM radio combination thing, but that was only $49.00, which isn't too bad. I didn't go for any of the high ticket items.

I didn't do too bad, but do have some Staples rebates to send in. They're pretty easy to do online, so I don't mind doing them. I bought some USB flash drives, batteries, and CD rewrites there.

I also bought a reversible light grey, almost white bubble coat and some grey boots at Walmart, both items $7.00 each, which I plan to use walking Rascal.

What about you? Did you shop on Black Friday? If so, what kind of deals did you get?

So, this year I was pretty practical, but it was still fun and I did get a few things I hadn't expected to find.

What about you? Did you shop on Black Friday? If so, what kind of finds did you get?

Did you eat any of these foods at Thanksgiving dinner?

Since it's a busy time and an eating time, here's an easy poll to take in the left column. It's okay to pick multiple answers as long as they don't conflict. You can also leave a comment about a particularly favorite dish, if you wish.

Morgan

Still Time Plus Giving Thanks

Still time to let us know  below when you read.
Today, at http://acmeauthorslink.blogspot.com/ I'm giving thanks for the gift of writing. What about you?

Rascal is sleeping right now. When she gets up, you'll know about it.

When RASCAL wakes up, you'll hear from her and/or her Mom - that would be me, Morgan Mandel.
