He's out there, right now, my sexy cowboy, Austin McKettrick. Go, Austin!I'm making this particular blog a short one, as I've got plenty of work to do and time seems to be racing by.So it's off to Stone Creek for me. :)More later.

Tomorrow, the third story in the Texas McKettricks trilogy, "Austin", will be in the stores. I'm so excited to see this youngest brother come on stage at last, ready to ride the meanest bulls, carve out a place for himself on the family ranch, and brave all the...

That's what I keep telling myself. I can be non-smoker AND a slender person, at the same time. Since I promised not to talk about the diet, that's all I'm going to say for now.Traveler is feeling a lot more chipper today, so if you've been worrying about that cayuse...

I don't feel well today.

The weather report: sunshine. (Note to self: enjoy now. Rain on the way. Again.)The dog report: Sadie is snoozing on her bed nearby. She has consumed her breakfast and given up all hope (she would have me believe) of scoring an extra one. Bernice, the Yorkie, is...

Amanda Peterson, my niece Angie's best friend in the world and my honorary niece, married her sweetheart, Norm Grock, this past Saturday. I wasn't able to make it to the wedding, but I can't wait to see the pictures. Amanda, you must have been a very beautiful bride....
