I had an episode with WalMart that made a five minute trip into a 5 hour trip. I was even humming Gilligan’s Island to myself while in the checkout line for an hour. MamaKittyinaz was laughing at me.
Lesson learned: never go shopping with MamaKittyinaz when you have baking to do.
But she made up for it, she helped out with cookie making, she put the cookies in the oven, rolled them in sugar and did all that stuff, while I kept making stuff.
It took two days but here is all the treats that the people who got the results of my baking frenzy:
I think I missed a few, but you get the idea. The trays are PACKED!
And then I got sick yesterday. I’m feeling better, but not a 100%. But I have wrapping to do, which only I can do.. long story. (Which by the time I am posting this I finished with… 15 minutes to spare.) And my hubs is ready to help as well clean house. I am drinking copious amounts of tea since it has helped in the past. and I need to prep for tomorrow’s dinner.
This is all to explain, that while I have the stories ready to be read, no banners have been made. I will make them when I get the chance!!!!
And my own story, Carolized, is ready to go. There is a note on the bottom why this had to be approved. This is NOT Beta read. they were all busy! So enjoy the story. Click on the Banner to the challenges, and the banner for Carolized to be taken there.
Voting is set with one limit. But if you figure it out, you can vote more than once. You should be able to vote each day either way. I give you a hint, it has to do with what I posted earlier… hehehe
Last, but not by far not the least, Merry Christmas. Thanks for everything everyone, and we are planning to hit the ground running after my birthday in January. It’s close so no worrying.
Due to the rise in plagiarism combined with the fear of censorship (it’s REALLY racy), my beta team and I have discussed pulling this story and holding it to publish as an original fiction.
After much arguing, they finally got it through my thick skull that it is good enough to be an original work.
So, you guys have until next updating (Dec 3) to read this. Then it will be taken down in all incarnations of it.
Sorry to all of you who wanted this to end here, but the work going into it is going to be huge. And with people stealing work and so forth, I just don’t trust people. Right now, there is no ending written in stone yet, but when you buy the book you can find out how it goes down…
For all of those of you who are moving to WordPress and would like some help, well I decided to make a group for it. Well actually Rissa did the group for me so I wouldn’t get banned.
It is public, easy to find. And the banner above is, as always, a link to it.
If you would like to join to either receive help, or to help others, please do. Paying it forward guys. And it will help us gain a community to help new people to the world of WordPress, and help them to find it is not so scary out here.
We are not building the sites for you, we are only helping out. Explaining how Pages work vs Posts and so on. How to add Facebook pages to your site to get automatic updates when you post, as well as Tumblr and twitter. How to make links and how to use buttons and so forth. What a Shortlink is and how to use it as well as find it. How to make your posts more interesting and easier to read.
A place to talk if you are experiencing an issue.
I have had many new ladies in my group going out and trying to use their WordPress, and I figured this would be a great place to gather them all up to get help. And for those of us that wish to help, be able to share our learning experiences with each other. Who knows? Maybe some of us know tricks that others don’t!
It is a wide open group, so mosey on over and feel free to join!
Have a Happy Thanksgiving if I don’t talk to you before then! (Yeah right!!! I’ll be back!!!)
Yes. That’s right. We actually have a post for Sunday!!!! And I thought that Gif was the perfect way to announce it.
First thing first. This month is the Kill Bill contest!!! Please have your entries in by midnight 11/30/2014! For more information, please click here.
So here is what is happening. I am writing this on Saturday, (like normal) and I am going outside to check on our possible new puppy. See Mr. Kittyinaz thought he had found a dog, but when he tried to look closer, the dog ran away. We let Connor out, but go out with him to watch over in case the dog comes back. I was playing with Connor, and laughing at him being silly, when Mr. Kittyinaz looks shocked and said there is the dog. I turned around, and this puppy came out form under our house. OMG. I never wanted to cry for a dog before that moment. Not for how they look. He had no collar mark, which means he didn’t have a collar on much. He has floppy ear, but most of his fur was gone, as well being covered in fleas.
I have and probably have cried for my own pets, but my heart went to this young puppy. We fed him, and then my hubby made me go inside. And pointed out we have no money for him. But even with this, he left to go looking for a vet to take him.
I ended up having to deal with night issues with the puppy. But today, Sunday, we went to the vet. He has become allergic to fleas from the many bites. He has a form of mange, that is very treatable, and will go away. It is NOT contagious, so he was brought inside, and given a bath.
The vet gave him a pill to kill the fleas on him in 24 hours, and he has medicine to get rid of the rest. He has not heartworms, but he does have others. He has already been given a treatment for that. He right now is running around the house, and Connor is with him every step of the way. Looks like we have a new member of the family!! While right now he is not looking the best, in a month, he should be a brand new puppy. MamaKitty has named her new puppy, Murphy.
What else is going on? Well. I spent a day and finished all the linking for Anthem of the Angels, and yesterday spent the day finishing my bios. I also made some banners for the stories that need them.
I have pulled up right now the first chapter of the Mummy crossover. That will be finished, the banner made and hopefully sent all off to the Beta this week.. I have a bunch more chapters to ready, then I can get back to writing. The first thing I am writing, is the end of my novel. I need to get that done, and then we can move on from there.
Don’t forget the new site that is only for me to reblog the stuff I used to. This site is only for that. All Posts, nothing more….
so.. On with the normal events:
Last week was Charissa, so if you didn’t see that, go back and look. This Week is Falling Star!
Falling Star is so freaking awesome. The first time I remember interacting with her is when we met about Ellie Wolf. She made a story banner for Points of Authority. Back then, I was amazed anyone would make me a banner.
Fast forward to this year. Me and a couple of the ladies received Elements, a version of Photoshop that is much cheaper. I had mine for year, but was unable to make it work. I finally figured it out, and Falling came out with some banners. Then when we were amazed with what she had done. She stepped up and made tutorials for us. She is where all those animated banners have come from.
She also is one of the admins for the Non Canon Awards. They decided to spread beyond the Twilight universe. And let’s face it. the SVM/TB universe is mostly made of non canon stories! We were made for them! They asked me to review and interview different authors. She made me an awesome signature, that made me use them instead.
All in all, my banners would not be where they are without her. 4padfoot and Gyllene started me off, and they were beyond patient, but she took us a step farther, and made it possible for all of us to learn. Thanks Falling!
This is one of my favorite parts. Kittyinaz, you get to go on YouTube and find videos for us. Soo hard. NOT!
Since for some reason I cannot leave a message, please leave one for these awesome people!
Starting off with Hook!

Next we have a True Blood video….
Eric & Sookie — I See You — True Blood
This is a normal video, but I watched it, and it brings to you.. to Live………
OneRepublic – I Lived. Take a chance on your dreams! What do you really have to lose? Is it worth the regret later in life? If this man could do it, what is your excuse?
Now here is something to laugh at. Or at least smile… I LOVE TTS starring Jimmy Fallon. Ask my betas!
Daniel Radcliffe Raps Blackalicious’ “Alphabet Aerobics”
LOL And for my Harry Potter kick:
Harry Potter | Time of our Lives. (Tribute)
I never though of this song as a Harry Potter song, but this person changed my mind!!
LET THE SKY FALL – Harry Potter.
I am off to work, or watch the new puppy, or who knows!!! See you later this week!
Yeah, I am just posting this pic here cause I can’t stop laughing at it when it pops up on Facebook.
I am looking for a song for one of my stories. So I am looking to write. Next will be You tube if I can’t find something to inspire me.
Beta is working, when I don’t distract her with random pictures on FaceBook. She knows you guys are anxious for the next chapter…. And it starts the plot moving as some of you have wished for… Now does everyone understand why I do flashbacks of her growing up?? We would have been old and senile by the time I got this part.
Happy Friday you all!! Hope you enjoyed the laugh… oh I remember what I forgot to do on tumblr.. I forgot to search for Allan!!! Back to Tumblr I go. It’s such a hardship too.
It truly is amazing the stuff you can find on the internet. I searched Alexander Skarsgard leprechaun and the picture above is what popped up. I think it is fitting for today. Sorry I missed posting last week, but Daylight Savings in the USA screwed me up. Losing one hour completely wrecked my week. I…
Can someone please explain to me why I am seeing more snow in March than I did in the entire months of December and January???? I should be getting ready for spring, not worrying about shoveling 8 inches of snow. The only way snow in March is acceptable is if it this is part of…
Hello lovelies. I cannot guarantee I will be back to publishing weekly, but I will try. My dear beta, kleannhouse, is in high demand trying to juggle the stories of three writers. She is amazing and she makes me laugh with all of her comments on my stories. This one especially. I started this story…
