Bringing the Drama

Standard

I needed a way to purge myself of the experience that I had with Eliza and the whole blended family drama that I lived with for far too many years. So I wrote a book. Nothing major. Fiction. Short. Funny. Sigh. Exhale. Moving on.

It is available on Amazon via Kindle  and paperback via me.

Wishlist Update

Standard

Howdy Y’all! For Christmas I received three things from my list:

1.) Kindle: When I first opened it, I was not impressed.  It is so lightweight that it feels flimsy.  But once I put it in its case, that took care of that.  I also had to get used to the idea of reading in such a nontraditional way.  I ordered my first book, “The Help” and was manually trying to turn the pages as I read! Overall, I do like it.  It just takes some getting used to.

2.) Pink Friday: This is the MAC lipstick designed by Nicki Minaj.  I tried it on and let me tell you–it looks RIDICULOUS on me!!!! If you have some Pepto Bismol at home, smear some on your lips.  This is what it looks like, lol!

3.) Earrings: I got the Guess Crystal Tassel Drop ones.  They are really pretty and shimmery and I love they way they look.  However, they are sooooo heavy–so much that I lost one because it slipped out of my ear! I was so steamed that I wrote an email to Guess.  They basically brushed me off.  I might boycott their products.

Out of the 3, the Kindle is the undisputed winner.

Wish List

Things I really want in no particular order:

1.) Tiff: I love these heels

2.) Kimmie: Loving these, too!

3.) And Ricki

4.) Ugg Sheepskin Cuff Boots: These are not really cute, but they look soooo cozy! Plus they would be great for running errands on a cold winter’s day.

*Note: I tried these on in Englin’s over the weekend, and while they were warm, I must admit, they look RIDICULOUS! But they looked cute on the model’s feet!

5.) Kindle 3G+ WiFi: It looks cool, it’s lightweight, and it’s another way for me to read.  Plus, you can get free books as well buy books and be able to read them in a matter of seconds.

6.) Jewelry Armoire: What can I say? I need something to store my jewelry in!

9.) Elephant Ring: This is from Rachel Roy and I just love this little guy/gal.  Isn’t it adorable?! And it’s pink.

10.) Earrings: I used to wear only one style of earring–diamond studs.  But I think I want to try other styles. These are both by Guess.

11.) Pink 4 Friday: Nicki Minaj’s new shade by MAC.  I tried a version of this on and surprisingly it is really pretty.  I received a ton of compliments. And it’s pink! But it is such a hot commodity that I doubt I’ll have her version.

12.) Bowling Ball: I enjoy bowling and it would be nice to have a ball of my own. And it’s pink and cute 🙂                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Brunswick Polyester Hearts Ball - Choose Weight - Dick's Sporting Goods

I’m curious, does anyone own a Kindle?  I think I want one, however, I am reluctant to let go of the real thing.  But, it is a good way to store books without worrying about the space they consume.  Though you couldn’t really loan them out either.  Decisions, decisions!
