Fantastic News!

Rob just got an offer from Harper publishing for his book Variant.

"Robison Wells's debut VARIANT, pitched as a modern day LORD OF THE FLIES, set at a boarding school where not everything is as it seems and every day is a fight for survival, to Erica Sussman at Harper Children's, in a significant deal, in a three-book deal, by Sara Crowe at Harvey Klinger (world)."

We are all excited. Congratulations Rob!

I solved a mystery


I just found out why little kids pick their noses and eat it.

Sammy said that he had a booger in his mouth and couldn't get it out because it was sticky. I asked him why he had a booger in his mouth.

He said: "Because I didn't have any place to put it."

A goal completed

I am not a scrapbooker. I have tried and tried but I hate the time it takes and the mess it leaves behind. I love the books. I have many friends who love and are good at scrap booking and admire them for it but I am not a scrapbooker. I want the equivalent of a scrapbook but on my terms and I found it. I finally finished part one of my goal. My family for the past 4 years preserved in a book.

I downloaded Booksmart from Blurb.com and created this book with Rob's and My blog posts for the past 4 years. I even added Holly's blogs at the end.

I love the way it turned out. This is my scrapbook. This is my family history.

Here are just a few pages




Also my weight loss is going horrible but I never give up. It will get better.
