I adore it so far even though I haven't been able to use it online yet.  We don't have wireless internet but we will be getting it on Thurs.  Can't wait!
I also received a free ebook for signing up for the Virna DePaul/Larissa Ione video chat on April 28, 2011.
Then on top of all that I won a $10 gift card for Amazon from ummmm  I know it's awful but I cannot remember which blog it was from.  I have been on sooo many of them this week heheh.
Then to top everything off I got a wonderful compliment from the esteemed author Jules Bennett, she really made my day! :D
She said, "Oh, BTW, your makeup pics are awesome! I'm always amazed when you post new ones how talented you are!"
I just about died!!! I'm so humbled.  What a sweetheart!


So, as you can see my week so far has been pretty Spectacular :)  We didn't win a new couch lol but I can't be greedy lol  I'm reading #3 KGI series-Maya Banks... So far the series rocks!  Great characters and major action, my fave :D

OH! I have to get this book now. I love great action and character rolled into one too. Congratulations on all your winnings! You lucky lady!I agree with Jules Bennet, your ability with make-up is amazing!

Virna DePaul is an amazing writer and teacher. I am taking a class with her on SavvyAuthors for story structure and she is kicking my butt into shape. It feels like boot camp, but I'm not complaining. :-)

Halloween Bash!!!!!! LAST DAY!!!!!!!!!!

So this is our last day to party :(  It's too bad because it's been such a wonderful time!  I've loved having each and every one of you here celebrating All Hallows Eve! Our final destination is................ Waverly Hills Sanatorium, located in Louisville, Kentucky, opened in 1910 as a two-story hospital to accommodate 40 to 50 tuberculosis patients. It has since come to be considered one of the most haunted buildings in the Eastern United States. In the early 20th century, Jefferson County was severely stricken with an outbreak of tuberculosis. The original Waverly Hills building was soon home to over 140 patients. A larger hospital was needed for the overwhelming number of patients coming in, so construction of a five-story building that could hold more than 400 patients began in March 1924. The most common experience of visitors seems to be "moving shadows" or "shadow people". These are shadows that appear to have some substance - able to "

Welcome Back Everyone! Today we will be exploring the wondrous Town of Halloween. Halloween Town is my children's favourite Halloween Movie.  I thought it might be fun to put a little spin on this make-believe town. During the day Halloween Town looks like a lovely place to visit and play.  But!  At Night it turns into a spooky and scary place.  We are going to do like most Ghost Hunters and explore this town.  Let's see what do we need....   OK Everyone grab a piece of equipment and let's start exploring! To the right we have a graveyard, who wants to explore there?  Be sure to bring your camera and recorder to try and catch some EVPs.  You never know what ghostly voices might come about.  Down the road a little i another Haunted house, be sure to stay away from the windows, they are seriously creepy. Don't worry Ladies!  We have some wonderful men in Uniform or Halloween Costumes who will stick around to protect us!     Be careful!  You never
