I just finished writing chapter 7 of my new Christmas cowboy romance, titled Christmas with the Cowboy, and I'm absolutely LOVING how this book is coming together! I wish you could read it sooner, but life, ya know?!

To celebrate this small victory, I put on my "Crazy Pumpkin Lady" apron and made a batch of my Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies. If you're itching for the recipe, find it on Instagram. I'm looking forward to making homemade pies for Thanksgiving.

I had hoped to write a whole book this month, like many of my author friends, but my son and his family are moving in with us this weekend. I've spent most of the month cleaning out our basement and running stuff to Desert Industries and Goodwill. I honestly had hoped that job would belong to my kids when I kicked the bucket, but NOOO!!! Lol!

It's a mixed bag of emotions for me. It's a unique and wonderful opportunity to spend more time with my son, daughter-in-law, and granddaughter. As much as I love them, I'm really worried about getting my writing done! I think grandma is just going to have to take a breather and head on over to the library.
