A trying year but I'm still writing

This has been a trying year but we're still moving along and doing our best. Our elderly rescue dog now has dementia so she can't be left alone, which means spending a lot of time at home caring for her. Hubby and I take turns whenever we need to leave the house for appointments, classes and such, but our fur baby is still having more good days than bad, so we're just waiting for her to let us know when it's time. It's very hard but she deserves the best final weeks/months we can give her. She's somewhere around 16 or even older now and we're grateful that we've had 4 years with her already.

Yes, I'm still writing, though I don't get much uninterrupted time right now. I'm only working on two books at the moment. Once I have more time, I'll be able to add the new series I've been planning to start on. We haven't had a vacation in years, so that will be the first thing we do. It's bittersweet but we'll get through this.

I hope those of you who are still reading these blogs are having a much better summer. I hope you're still reading books and passing on the love of reading to the next generation. I'll be back to my normal workload eventually and I'll blog whenever my next book is available to purchase. Thanks to those who are still buying my books and hanging in there with me. Here's to a better future!

Still standing, most of the time.

This has been a rough year so far with a chronically ill dog and my own battle with Meniere's Disease, but we're all still standing (most of the time) and getting through each day. I'm thankful to my supportive hubby for helping me through the latest attack. You'd think after 25 years, I'd be used to these attacks but they kick my butt every time. Stress is a big factor for me and I was very stressed out when our fur baby had her latest IVDD flareup. She has recovered and I'm on the mend as well. 

I've been attending classes, meetings, and appointments since January began, which means writing is slow going right now too, but I should get a break from outside demands come summer so I hope to get more done then. I have 2 new novels that I'm working on, as well as genealogy research. 

I hope everyone is staying safe this winter and getting lots of reading done.
