A new book and sad passings

Along with all the crazy things that hit me, I have been writing my second book, Veneficus. I am surprised to find the words flowing from my fingertip to the keyboard. It took me years to write the first book and about a year...and a half...to write this one. I am very happy with it. I struggled with the cover and feel that I now have exactly what I want.

I have talked to many of my witchy friends and they have been a great inspiration for me. It is always good to have support in any manner. Usually the support I get comes from my hosiery. Ok that was just a joke.

On another note, one of my oldest and dearest friend's mother passed away this Tuesday. I did not know her mom but a loss like that leaves a hole in one's heart and lingering reminder to all else that we are mortal.

No one wakes up in the morning thinking about death, well no one normal anyway. It is sad part of life that we all will go through one day but don't like to acknowledge until it is brought to our attention. When someone passes it reminds us of how short life really is, how it can go by so quickly when you're not looking and how important it is to leave this world with wonderful memories and how to leave them.

Here's to my friend and to her mother's journey home.

Isn't this over yet?!

Sometimes I just want to scream! It feels like the last 2 and half years have just taken a crap on me and my family and there seems no end in sight.  Oh let's recap shall we... 2016 was my son's first open heart surgery followed by a plethora of doctor's appointments and other surgeries. I thought it was over by the end of the year and took the advice of Whitney Houston and friends when I exhaled. However, my fun filled days were not over yet and I found myself dumbfounded by the turn of events in my life.  2017 started out fine...well not really. January brought us the bad news that our black Lab Molly Mae had cancer. It was in her bones and basically there was nothing to do but love her.  So, that's what we did. We took her home and loved her. Then, in April we were informed that my son needed to have another open heart surgery because the tissue valve that they put in was not performing the way that they thought that it would and now needed ...

16 days later...

Well, it's been sixteen days since my last post and well I can honestly say that I am totally disappointed. I thought that I would see some sort of growth but I haven't. What's worse is that my nails are so thin and weak that I had to actually cut some of my nails because they tore. Not because they grew. They were weak to begin with but at least they feel a little better. I mean I can now take a shower and the hot water doesn't hurt my fingernails. I am also a bit perplexed at the my second to the last finger. If you look close you can see the part of the nail that had solar on it and the amount of growth but my nail never got longer and this is not one of the one's that I had to trim. Things that make you go hummmm.  So here are my nails. I have been using the Nail-Aid Keratin for 16 days. It says 3 days growth but in three days I saw no growth. I have been receiving e-mails and comments suggesting that I use the O.P.I. Nail Strengthening but I refuse. ...

This confirms it!
