A few random things.

It's pretty grey and rainy out side right now. I am enjoying it quite a lot. Thunder and lightning...puddles and wind! *Sigh* Perfect weather for listening to music and doing crafts. Or settling down with a good book and some cocoa. Or perhaps just blast the Phantom of the Opera, sing at the top of my lungs and bake some cookies.

Except, I happen to have this really bothersome cold and my voice is struggling a big right now. I think it must be breaking up, (At least I hope it's breaking up!) because I've been sneezing and blowing my nose so much today...
I rather fancy that singing in this condition wouldn't be the best thing for my poor, strained vocal cords.

I guess I'll just listen to Josh Groban instead.

I just finished reading Perfect Scoundrels and I really enjoyed it. Ally Carter is a very good author and her books are such fun. I can'd decide what series I like better, the Heist Society books or the Gallagher Girls books.  I might lean ever so slightly toward the Gallagher Girl series. The later ones, that is. The first books the main character is really young and the stories are a bit more lighthearted. The later ones are gooood. :)

Last night I was going through some of my documents and started reading some of the things I've written...and for the first time,I didn't hate all of it! *Cackles gleefully!* There was on fight scene in particular that I hated after I wrote it. I didn't seem to flow the way I wanted it two and it almost felt too long. But last night, it was pretty cool! I was like, "I wrote this? Hmmm. Not too shabby."
I think I need to start working on my stories again. I have two stories in particular that are very dear to me and I would like to finish them at some point during my life. :) I don't really consider myself a writer. It's just a 'sometimes' hobby. *Shrug*

And speaking of writing...Letter Game. *Head-desk* I don't know why I keep forgetting so completely about the stupid letter game! It's terrible. So now that's back on my to-do list.

Now I think I'll slip away to my little kitchen and do some baking.

Don't forget that Friday is the last day you can enter the Disney giveaway. All you need to do is a quick post on anything Disney cartoon related and leave a comment on my blog. :)

God Bless!

  1. Get well real soon, and good idea about not singing just yet so your voice can come back soon. That's awesome that you will pick up your hobby of writing again. At the time it may seem dry or something but when you come back to it later with fresh eyes, it will be clearer for you.

    Ooooh, can't wait to see who is the winner! (Crosses fingers) oh speaking of Disney, they are going to show the movie Cinderella this weekend on the Disney channel on Friday. I'm so happy I am not the only one who is crazy about Disney! :)

  2. I love rainy days, so so much. I like to walk in them, then come home and change into something warm and dry and read a good book while sipping tea under a blanket. (Now I want rain.)

    I hope your cold passes very fast!! Those aren't nice at all. But Josh Groban helps a lot. He is good like that.

  3. Thanks, Hilda. :) Yeah, I'm excited to see who wins it too.

    Hi, Jack. Rain is fun. It just 'sets the mood' for reading and drinking. :)
    Josh is very good at that. He always makes me feel much better.

    Cheers
