Time Flies When You're Havin' Fun!

Well, I guess it's been a few days since I last posted anything here, but time just flies by when you're doing all those exciting things like working and paying the bills. Actually, it's been a relatively easy week for me. I only had to work four and half days this week and was out one of those days fighting a lingering bronchial infection that's become very attached to me. The only exciting thing I've really done all week was create a video trailer for another book. If you get a chance wander over to YouTube and search for Ruth Sims. The book is entitled The Phoenix and it's a great story. I had a lot of fun putting the video together and hope it gets the response the author is looking for. You know, that's the bad thing about being published by a small press. Those houses put out some damn good books, but because of budgetary problems, they often don't have the funds for heavy duty promotion. So if the videos help these authors out, then I'm one happy little camper. If you're really interested do a search for badcock24 and check out all the videos I've made. I think there are about fifteen right now and I've had a whale of a good time with each one.

My partner and I had a good weekend getting a few things done around the house. We managed to purchase a new coffee table and two new recliners for our living room. We've been working on a lot of renovations to our old house and hopefully by the time I retire in a few years it will just be our little palace on the prairie. We bought a new grill for the patio and tonight I didn't have to cook, which only goes to show there is method to my madness. We staked out Tiki torches to ward off mosquitoes and fired up the chiminia to ward off the evening chill. All-in-all it was a very peaceful weekend and we needed that to re-energize before returning to work tomorrow.

I haven't had the energy to write much the last couple of weeks, but am planning to write tomorrow evening. I have a sequel about half finished and really do need to work on that. For now it's shower time and then reading time before I go to sleep. Take care and as Arnold said, "I'll be back!"
