Hello everyone!
It’s November! Time flies when you’re having fun…and even if you’re not.
It just doesn’t seem fair! All we can do is to do our best, even if we’re too pooped to pop.
I hope Halloween brought you more treats than tricks and now Thanksgiving is quickly approaching. Remember to focus on those two words: Thanks and Giving, especially with the holidays looming around the corner.
It seems as if a lot of people have been going through rough times lately. Someone told me it is an astrological thing and the planets are supposed to be realigning soon. One can hope.
Regardless of your beliefs whether traditional or metaphysical, I say as long as you can get out of bed and put your pants on you are ahead of the game! I don’t mean to be sassy—just something to think about.
That being said, I ask that you do one kind thing each day. It doesn’t have to be a grand gesture. Something simple will do, like saying “good morning” to someone you pass on the sidewalk or open the door for someone. Give a total stranger a compliment “Oh, I like your shoes!” or “Nice handbag!” It will make their day, and as a result, it will also make yours.
I know life is very frustrating right now, but if everyone makes a small effort to be nice to one and other, I truly believe we can become more civil and kinder, which will truly shift the energy in a more positive direction. Look at me getting all metaphysical. LOL.
I say this now because as we approach the holidays people are going to be even more stressed, and wrapped up in their own issues, and more likely their phone. So, before you blow a gasket take a deep breath. Then take another one.
Now I shall step off my soapbox and talk about our two contests for November and early December and the latest book news:
The girls are back with a fun adventure in Italy for the holidays. There are a few recipes and the menu for Christmas Eve dinner. Travel with Frankie, Amy, Rachael, and Nina as they go rollicking through the hills and along the Amalfi Coast in Santa’s Secret. This contest continues from last month and will run until November 15. It features a grand prize that includes three hardcovers starring the gals from Santa’s Crew: Santa Cruise, Santa & Company, and the latest novel, Santa’s Secret. But that’s not all, folks! It will also consist of a bundle of holiday favorites: Holly and Ivy, No Place Like Home, Falling Stars, Spirit of the Season, and these wonderful anthologies: The Most Wonderful Time, Silver Bells, Winter Wishes, and Making Spirits Bright.
Tis the season to celebrate the release of the next Sisterhood book, Backwater Justice on December 24th. Enter to win a large collection of at least 30 books (yes, 30!) from the series. Contest ends December 15. Good for gifting, or good for you!
Have a wonderful THANKSGIVING!
