Too Much of a Good Thing

October 2013:  Before I return to writing Penny’s book, I need to make plans to revisit London for Christmas. 



I'm really feeling more like a travel agent than an author.

Shhh…. Don’t tell the Girl

Early October 2013: Since I was broadsided with my daughter’s injury/recovery, there has been no progress on Book 5.



 I had intended to have it finished by the time I left for the RWA National Conference. As it turned out, I was lucky I could attend.

I have to get back on track and back to writing. With the departure of my daughter, I’m going to move my office into her room until her return. Shhh…. Nobody tell her.

London!



September 2013: We’re doing LOTS of walking…my poor girl’s knee…







but all is well. I manage to fit in a few days here and a few days there of research.


Hanover Square





Almack’s site 







White's Club on St. James St.






and Hatchards!






 To see these things with my own eyes is unbelievable.

Ready or Not




August 2013:  Physical Therapy continues and we make preparations for the trip to London. The school is not happy with the surgery, in truth, neither were we, and they’re asking for a doctor’s release.






We leave at the end of the month.

Longest Month of My Life





End of June 2013: 

Surgery and 3 whole days/24 hours a day of this . . . it didn't look this good









July 2013: Physical Therapy for the knee begins. Hubby stays home to watch over the girl and I fly to Atlanta for the RWA National Conference.














While I’m away I get a picture of my daughter’s first steps! I feel so relieved that she’s making progress.
