A Lake Of Inspiration

I get to spend the 4th of July here. 

Swimming.

Sleeping. 

Boating.
Loving my kiddos.

Hangin' with the cousins. 

Writing...

What could be better?

P.S. Yes that pic was taken tonight as I stared at the amazing sky and water, and sure you can come by anytime!

I love the sample table!

Nothing better than hitting Sam's Club or other big bulk buying type stores, around lunch time.

The samples hit the floor, and I forget my entire shopping list, while I scout the new foods.

Samples are fun for everyone and today I have a sample for you!

Tamara Hart Heiner has a fabulous book up for free for 3 more days!

Inevitable

I reviewed it a while back when it first came out, but just incase you missed it I loved it.

For me it was one of those books that wraps up beautifully but has so much potential that I can't stop thinking about it!

It's a quick read with some super fun twists along the way!

So if you haven't already gotten it, go pick it up! If you have, go post a review and tell a friend!

Scales of Goodness

My friend just posted a review scale that I love.
It's like the breath of heaven for my crazy stressed out brain!

Charity Bradford has a review up that I thouroughly love and at the bottom she rates it then gives a rating scale definition. 

Aaaaah!

The clouds part, angels sing, and golden light is shines down to bless us all!

Yes there's been a scale in my head but there's one in your's and your's and in that guys head over there too. So how do you know what my scale looks like. Well now it's written down and you can see it. Thank you everyone and thank you Charity. 

It's one of those why didn't I think of that moments. 

This is an insecure Writers post because that moment of posting a number to a review has always freaked me out. I want good numbers, they want good numbers. Please dear Father! Bless my fingers as they click the right ones! Now, at least, I get to explain myself :)

Here's the lovely scale I speak of -

1-5 scale and what it means:
1: I couldn’t even finish it / just plain bad
2: I hope I didn’t pay for this / disappointing
3:  I didn’t hate it, but it was still missing something / forgettable but inoffensive
3.5: On the line between good and ok / like, not love
4: Solid mind candy / worth reading
4.5: So very close to perfection! / must read
5: I could not put it down and I’m still thinking about it! / a true treasure
