I'm sitting outside working on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. Nothing could be better than this! I just sent off uncorrected review ARCs to both my mailing list and my proofreaders. Which means I am several days ahead of schedule! I hope to have the final file to Amazon and all the other vendors by the beginning of May. Woo! Now, it's time to finish up the Pinterest board and image teasers for RECLAIMED. I have big things coming up for the whole series in May! I hope you're ready!

Not much else has gotten done this week. Proofreading and spring cleaning took up all my time…

It was a dreary week weather-wise. Lots of clouds and rain, which actually made me believe I would be fine living in Seattle all winter. Lol. I like the warmer weather, rain and clouds a whole lot more than 0ºF and 5 feet of snow.

We played with playdoh a lot since we were inside.

I put on some brand new Jamberry nails! I'm obsessed with these things and really love all the patterns, colors, and styles plus the easy on and off. Looking at them every day makes me super happy.

Spring cleaning began by cleaning out the front hall closet! Next up, the other hall closet and then the basement. We're getting a treadmill and treadmill desk soon and it needs to go in the basement. I'm super excited to get a treadmill desk. I can't wait to walk and work at the same time.

My friend and fellow author, Heidi Joy Tretheway, sent me flowers this week to cheer me up and they couldn't have come at a better time. I've been feeling very down about my work and book sales and my future as an author, so her note and the fact that she was thinking of me meant a whole lot (I'm totally crying right now). It gave me a much needed boost during a very bad week emotion-wise.

Finally I got a brand new hair cut and I LOVE IT SO MUCH! It's fresh and stylish and, most importantly, off my neck. Along with my new color, it's really perfect for me. I'm super happy with it.

Hope you all have a great week ahead of you!!
