Supernatural

As many of you know, Supernatural is coming to an end this season.  In homage to that fact, Lynn S Zubernis has brought together a collection of essays written by various actors, associates, and fans.  "There'll be Peace When You Are Done" is a nod to the unofficial theme song by Kansas, "Carry on my Wayward Son" and the title to the collection.  A collection of essays was written before, "Family Don't End with Blood" and this one may be a little better in some ways.  Some of the writers are Jensen Ackles and fangirl extraordinaire, Alana King.  Some essays are better than others. Most writings are farewell messages to the show, which has been on TV for 15 years and has interwoven itself into the fabric of American culture.  It deserves a farewell tour.   I would recommend this book for any Supernatural fan.  But not the so-so watcher. I received this book from netgalley. 

Day 2

Dear Beckie,
You are beautiful.  You are courageous.  You are unique.  You are amazing.  Your are worth it.  You are a Boss.  I love and respect myself, all of my needs are met.

I am too Busy

This morning I said "I love you" to myself in the mirror.  What did I feel?  Well, I immediately started critiquing myself.  So I said it fairly quickly and got out of there.  Especially since I was supposed to be boosting my sexy vibes.  A physical feature I love is probably my boobs.  They are worth a lot.  The inside feature would be intelligence.  I think I'm pretty smart.

Alone time

What is one way I can begin cultivating solitude?  I can get up earlier or spend time in my book room.  I relish getting up early on weekends to spend time alone before anyone else gets up. 
What are the top one or two obstacles I need to overcome practice times?  Well, going to bed earlier so I get enough sleep and can still get up early.  No one goes to bed regular anymore with this covid thing so staying up late is no longer an option.  Sometimes I am just plan tired.

Give Thanks

Livelihood:
I am thankful for my job, because I can somewhat make my own hours and I can work with my children sometimes.

Body: I am thankful that I am healthy regardless of my weight.

Creativity:  I am thankful that my book room is finished and that I have somewhere to go.

Relationship:  I am thankful for my husband because he is a hard worker that provides well.

Spirituality:  I am thankful that Jesus died on the cross because as often as I screw up I would be doomed without him.

Tempestuous Eden review

I have read several of Heather Graham's novels, mostly mystery, but this is her first romance that I have read.  "Tempestuous Eden" is a romance involving international diplomacy, missions, US government, etc.  Blair is a powerful government official's daughter who is in Central America feeding the hungry when her father arranges for her to be abducted for her safety.  Unfortunately he doesn't bother to tell her this.  He sends Craig to kidnap her and hold her for 10 days until the all clear comes through.  Of course they get on each others nerves ( as one does when involved in a kidnapping) but can't seem to fight off the attraction either.  I am not normally a romance reader, so I don't "love" them.  This one seems pretty standard for the genre.  It is good as far as romance goes.  If romance is your genre of choice, this is one I would pick.  There is sex.  Not, like, porn, but you get it.
