Home, tired, halloween

So tired but don't want to fall asleep this early! It's 7:38pm my time and I think with coming home from vacation and right back into work has exhausted me. Can you get jet lag from a 1 hour time difference?

I know, dumb question but I have been very tired since coming home. I loved going to my first book event and had a great time. It was fun and I got to know a lot of people and make new friends too.

So now I am relaxing and will be taking a shower soon, going to get caught up on reviews and promos for my review page.

Working tomorrow morning and hope to hang with a friend tomorrow night. It's halloween tomorrow and no I am not dressing up but I did that at the book event I went to. It was fun.

Off to shower now, I will try and post tomorrow after work and posting stuff for the review page plus go through eamils too. I have so many to look at.

Calm Before the Storm: Episode 5 by Larissa Ione

 Welcome to Storm, Texas, where passion runs hot, desire runs deep, and secrets have the power to destroy...

Nestled among rolling hills and painted with vibrant wildflowers, the bucolic town of Storm, Texas, seems like nothing short of perfection.

But there are secrets beneath the facade. Dark secrets.  Powerful secrets. The kind that can destroy lives and tear families apart.  The kind that can cut through a town like a tempest, leaving jealousy and destruction in its wake, along with shattered hopes and broken dreams. All it takes is one little thing to shatter that polish.

Reading like an on-going drama in the tradition of classic day and night-time soap operas like Dallas, Dynasty, and All My Children,Rising Storm is full of scandal, deceit, romance, passion, and secrets.

With 1001 Dark Nights as the “producer,” Julie Kenner and Dee Davis use a television model with each week building on the last to create a storyline that fulfills the promise of a drama-filled soap opera. Joining Kenner and Davis in the “writer’s room” is an incredible group of New York Times bestselling authors such as Lexi Blake, Elisabeth Naughton, Larissa Ione, Rebecca Zanetti and Lisa Mondello who have brought their vision of Storm to life.

A serial soap opera containing eight episodes in season one, the season premiere of Rising Storm, TEMPEST RISING, debuted September 24^th with each subsequent episode releasing consecutively this fall.

So get ready.  The storm is coming.

Minnesota!

Hey everyone!

I am on vacation and I am super excited!!! I am attending my first book even and I am in Minnesota. My hotel is awesome plus super classy but it is connected to Mall of America!!!!

I'm happy I did this because I have been working a lot and it's nice to get away.

I did travel by myself but I am happy I met 3 amazing women last night and went to Bubba Gump Shrimp Copmay resturauny last night! I never go out when I am home so last night was a blast. Ah..... man bun aka David. Good looking guy and I asked aboiut him, lol.

It was so much fun, now today I am shopping since registartion is at 2pm and going to message Leagh later. She is one awesome chick!

I even went to the gym and did my workout today, its a small gym in the hotel but its there and I will use it! I also love this place and I will come back. I don't think I could go more than a year without seeing Leagh.

Anyways wanted to post in here since I haven't and now I am going to finish getting ready check out the mall and maybe relax before registration.

More later.

Great News and MBLU!

Hello to everyone!

I am a busy person but I wouldn't have it any other way. I'm getting ready for my trip to Minnesota and I am excited!!!!

I do need to start packing which I am going to after I update here first.

Good news, I got my shirts and will post pics seperately. I also got my business cards in the mail and I LOVE the way they turned out!! Double sided and they look great! Going to switch my cover photo on facebook and put it on that one.

I am ready for MBLU 2015! I'm also happy to be going on a vacation and I am getting caught up on promo/review posts for the review page and blog. I have a lot of reviews to do so I will be reading a lot too this week.

My friend Jen is at AAC (Another Anime Con) and I wanted to hangout with her but she is away and I get to post stuff on my review page so it's okay that she is not in town. I will see her soon before I leave.

The review page is doing well and I am happy with it plus I want to do a giveaway when I reach 500 likes so some of the books I pick up from the convention will be in the giveaway.

I don't have much bad news, It Works website sucked last night and I got frustrated so I just wanted to forget about it and I went to bed.

Everything else is great and I am happy. I'm not a part of Alpha Book Club anymore which is okay and I can have more time for my review page. I am in one other review group and hope to make that group grow.

So that is my news for now, I need to start packing plus shower and start reading more books, I work all day tomorrow.

More later and will get the pics up soon.

Life, business, backpack

Life in general has been good. I need to start posting for the "Foster an Author" week. I will get to that after I am done writing here.

I ordered a backpack for my book convention and ordered business cards too.

Still lots to do and now to update the review page. More later

Gym and sleep

I am tired but it's from going to the gym at 5am today. Yes I got up at 5am and went to the gym.

I'm happy I went and I feel great! 

It sucks to get up that early but it's the only time I have on Monday and Tuesday to go to the gym.

With work from 8am to 730p or later I would rather go early in the morning.

My sleep is doing better and I'm happy with that. I'm taking Confianza by It Works and it does work.

It's a stress reliever and helps you sleep better. I have taken it for 2 days now and I like it.

Now to help my gramps and then get to work.

IS it a Sign?

Well I think there is something telling me not to sign up and become a distributor. I'm not sure what is going on and why a comment I made was deleted. Not sure who or what deleted my comment but oh well.

I want to be a distributor for It Works! They have great products that I use and would love to get other people on the band wagon with it. They are vegan friendly products and are great for making you healthier.

So not sure how to take it but going to think on it some more and figure out what I want to do.

In other news, I get to cosplay at the book event I am going to!!! Super excited for that and need to get everything in one spot for that costume. I leave in a couple weeks and I am excited to be going. Never been to Minnesota.

So for now I am relaxing and tomorrow I am going to get caught up on posts and emails. :)

Goodnight
