Wordsmithing

Posted in Musings, tagged , , , on June 21, 2011| Leave a Comment »

Some of you may know that I have been endeavoring to write a novel. Which morphed into a series of three novels. Which then turned into a series of three novels with an introductory short story.

They are finally, finally published digitally!

You can find them at Smashwords and on Amazon in the Kindle store.

The books are retailing for $2.99 and the prelude is 99 cents on Kindle or free on Smashwords. In about a week and a half, the books will be available on other e-reader formats so stay tuned.

You can also find a free pdf download of the prelude on my website at:  ShannaHatfield.com

Go there to check out what the books are all about! And I’d love to hear what you think of them!

If you don’t have an e-reader, no worries. Kindle has a free application you can download and read books right on your computer. How cool is that?

Thank you to everyone for your encouragement, kind words and support as I jumped into this fascinating journey. It is going to be an exciting ride.

Cute Shoes

Posted in Entertaining at Home, tagged , , on June 20, 2011| 2 Comments »

See this really cute hot-pink shoe? The one it took me a whole 27 seconds to decide I had to have when I saw it.

I wore it shopping this weekend (which may not have been the best idea I’ve ever had in regard to the future ability to walk normally – at least normal for me).

Evidently hot-pink three-inch wedges are hard to miss.

I’ve never had so many compliments on a pair of shoes. From sales clerks, other shoppers and service desk employees, I heard “Cute Shoes!” so many times I think I was floating on cloud nine.

It was awesome.

Especially when this girl used to wear only flats that closely resembled something your great Aunt Hortense would wear on a day she really needed to be comfortable.  Arthritis tends to suck the fun right out of footwear.

But I could not resist these shoes or the desire to wear them shopping. Despite the barely noticeable limp today, I’m so glad I did.

What is your favorite pair of cute shoes?

Everything’s Coming Up Roses

Posted in Flowers, Hubby, Musings, tagged , , , on June 15, 2011| Leave a Comment »

If you’ve read my blog at all you have probably gathered from my ramblings that I like roses.

A lot.

As in they bring me ridiculous amounts of joy. They make me smile. They draw me into a wistful state and leave me floating in  blissful summer dreams.

We’ve had not only an unseasonable amount of cool weather but also some vicious wind that wreaked havoc on my poor roses.

Entire branches were broken off, poor little buds were beaten without mercy and I’m not convinced the two escaped convicts (aka the neighbor dogs) didn’t use them as some sort of sadistic demolition course.

I was surprised when I went out and found several roses blossoming despite all the challenges they’ve faced this spring.

Unable to stop myself, I cut a bouquet and brought it in the house where the scent led me into a somewhat euphoric state that Captain Cavedweller had to push me out of – at least long enough to make his dinner.

She Who Loves Roses
