Here in Canada, it’s the long weekend, a definite feel-good time. Although May 24th is for celebrating Queen Victoria’s birthday, most see the May long weekend as the official start to the cottage season. Add a few cases of beer, and then it becomes the May 24 Weekend.

We’ve set up the patio furniture. Now, we only need a few potted plants and cushions to add colour to the patio. My dragons and garden gnomes collection has suffered through the winter, so it’s time to replenish my collection. It’s also time to visit the feed supply store and get a new propane tank for the bbq. Maybe they’ll have a garden gnome or two waiting for me. If the weather cooperates, I’ll spend time out on the patio and enjoy the fresh air. What’s your favourite patio activity?

This weekend, I’ve got plans with Bates. I promised myself that if I didn’t finish his story by Christmas, it would be time to kick Bates to the curb. I love the strong and silent guy, but he’s been too silent and I need him to talk to me.

I’m trying something new and it’s giving me a feel-good feeling. Amazon has offered me the opportunity to convert three of my ebooks into audio books. I know there’s a lot of controversy about using AI for voices. However, I’d like to give it a shot. There is quite the variety of voices offered, and I have found three I like. I’ve uploaded the audio version of Love’s Farewell, and am waiting for it to become live. If you like audio books and you give Love’s Farewell a try, please let me know your thoughts on it. There are no wrong answers.

That’s it for my plans. We’ll see what happens.

Happy reading.
