Good morning, everybody!

Here are the winners for the Halloween memory contest:
Bonnie Wilson,  Rhonda Terstegge, and LaTasha Reed.  Zip me your snail mail addresses at llmfb@msn.com and we’ll send you each a signed book.  Enjoy!
Today is a writing day–you’ll remember, I was pooped on Monday, worn out by all that fun–and it looks as though, God willing, “Big Sky Summer” will be finished on Tuesday.   The next story to be released, last Tuesday in December, is “Big Sky River”, starring Boone Taylor and Tara Kendall, the chicken farmer.  I believe “Big Sky Summer” comes out in June, but watch this space for up to date information.  🙂
I’m planning a quiet weekend, resting up and reading, but if I get dragged off to the casino, kicking and screaming in protest, by my cousin Mary Ann this Saturday or Sunday, well, stuff happens.  🙂  I hope to visit Hobby Lobby, devour the new issue of “Somerset Studio”, which just arrived, and make a few artist trading cards, catch up on a few podcasts.  I always look forward to “Celebrity Ghost Stories” and “Long Island Medium”, too–I would LOVE to meet Theresa Caputo!!
My sister Sally made me one of her FABULOUS upcycled sweater-coats–I’ll be wearing it at the rodeo in Vegas this December, for sure.  Will tweet a picture or two very soon.  If you want to see what my technicolor dream coat looks like before then, visit Thankful Rose, on Etsy.
So it’s off to Parable/Three Trees, Montana for me.  Things are getting pretty wild in that neck of the woods.  🙂
Be well, be happy, and be kind.  It’s a choice.  (REALLY.)
