The Simple Things in Life.

Have you started your Christmas shopping yet? I have not, I asked my niece and nephew what they wanted for Christmas and gift cards are on their list. If they are on your list as well, I have a deal for you. This deal will help you cross gifts of your list and help add gas points when you purchase your gift cards from Kroger.  I personally look forward to these deals during this time of the year. We use the envelope system at our home. Basically, we keep extra cash or gift cards for us to use during the year for date or family nights. This helps us save a few dollars and still get to have a date night during the year. So with deals like this I will pick up two gift cards for our date night. Usually, I will pick a restaurant and either a movie, or if they have one for bowling, or another activity. This way if you want to pay a little extra on bills, or you need a few extra groceries you don't have to skip out on date night.  So stock up and get a gift card f...

Shadow of the Summer Moon  (Sakana Series Book 2) by Amanda LeMay Blurb: Branded by my pack Alpha. Betrayed by my mother. Raised by lies and falsehoods. The betrayal just as twisted and hideous as the deep scars I now carry. I have one choice: let my wolf loose and run. Run for my life and to the only other wolf who escaped the San Francisco pack. I leave my past and my pack behind, hoping for protection, a new home, a new pack and a chance to live free. The last thing I ever dream of finding is a mate. But falling into Gunner Bodolf’s arms is as simple as breathing in his irresistible scent. And once he kisses me, I can’t walk away. Having been lied to my entire life, there is so much I don’t know about being a wolf. I certainly know nothing of the sakana bond, a rare and precious bond between two wolves, connecting their minds, bodies, and souls. Gunner and I now share this priceless ancient gift. I ran from hell and ended up in heaven. Unfo...

A world not for humans. ** This is a full length (105,000 words) fantasy/paranormal romance story. It's Upper YA, with cursing and some non-detaile...

     I have come across so many recipes to help with sore throats and coughs. I thought that I would share what I use online. A few weeks ago my husband had a cough and sore throat that had been going around. One of the things I remember my doctor would recommended is honey for sore throats and coughs.       So I put a few things together to make a cough/throat soother for my husband. What I used to put it together is list below. My husband advised me that it helped with his cough and sore throat. So from now on, I will always make sure that we have lemons and honey in stock during the winter/cold season. Ingredients that you need: Honey, Lemon, Small Mason Jar 1. I cut my lemon into slices. 2. Put them in the mason jar and pour the honey over it. 3. Let them sit till it becomes a thin syrup. Which in 1/2 hour it should be ready to use. Can be taken with a regular spoon or put into tea (I put mine into a lemon tea for the extra bo...

Does anyone else have a bucket list of things they want to do in there lifetime. I think the bucket list is a wonderful idea, lets you see the things you wanted to do written on paper, pad, or just your phone. You can house your bucket list any place you like as long as you can see it and check off the things that you have done. One of the things I wanted to do was zip lining and I did it this summer. I have to tell you it was awesome an rush like no other. So much so that I went back again. The first time it was me and my sister. I will be totally honest, once we got up there and looked down I was ready to turn back. But we said we were going to do it and we did. It was exhilarating. But still a little scary especially when they guy said just sit and jump (what), but that is what we did.   Zip Lining Video Your bucket list is any and everything that you want to do in your life. My bucket list may be a little different then others but that what makes it unique. Be...

Who is ready for the movies of 2018. There are so many great movies we are going to touch on a few. We enjoyed the movies a lot this year we saw: Despicable Me 3  Captain Underpants ( Which I will say was better then I thought it would be) Star Wars (Date Night Movie) Fantastic Beast and where to find them Lego Batman  We enjoyed everyone of them. Despicable Me 3 we saw in North Carolina while visiting my Grandparents. One thing I enjoy about the movies here is that we have the popcorn bucket that you buy and can refill for $4.25. Believe me it pays for itself. We have gone to get popcorn and have not seen a movie. Who doesn't love movie theater popcorn.  I am going to put a link to the trailers if they are available with the release dates of when the movie comes out.
