Please introduce us to one of your
Blogging buddies this week!
My PhotoI would love to introduce to you all a special blogging buddy of mine, Lisa from Planet Weidknecht blog.  You may recognize the name :-)  that's because Lisa kindly allowed me to co-host her weekly Planet Weidknecht Weekend Hop with her.   I've known Lisa since I started blogging through various blogging groups, although we are at different ends of the real world I feel she is part of my trusted blogging family.  She's always there when you need her, she's full of ideas and new ways to engage blogs and readers,  most importantly she is a caring and friendly person to know.

Sometimes I wonder how she seems to fit everything in to her day, when I seem to constantly struggle getting it all done, she's always on the go!!  I was blown away a while back when I realised that as well as blogging, she has also written two children's books, is there no end to her talents?

Lisa has also created her events Facebook page which always has new things going on for bloggers to take part in, I'm actually rather embarrassed to say I've only managed to join in 2 of them plus one more starting soon,  I always seem full to the brim of giveaways when the new ones are starting, sorry Lisa xx

Lisa I'm glad I met you, thank you for making my blogging life so much easier xx


Room for one more little hello ??
Grace HodginI would also like to squeeze in a warm hello also to Grace over at Blessed Elements and also has a Facebook Page, friends of both Lisa and myself, another special member of my trusted blogging family.  Who again is opposite ends of the world  but has always been there for me on many occasions since I started blogging and I am really grateful that I have met her  xx

Grace your a very special person to know xx

Q: You are a matchmaker -- your goal, hook up two characters from two of your favorite books. Who would it be? How do you think it would go?

Help, totally stuck on this one !!!   How about Oliver Twist with Super Born hero, then he wouldn't have to go hungry and steal !!  He would have an amazing time flying through the sky rescuing all sorts of people in distress, what a different story that would be than the original.!!  Thats the best I can do this week sorry :-(

What made it so special?
Please share your answer with us at Friendship Friday!
Ok maybe it is not what I'm supposed to put as its a little biased but my favourite post of all this week has to be my own purely down to Stephen King being such a trooper !!  He has made the decision for have his next book purely in printed edition, yay!!!  As you all know I am quite passionate about not loosing books forever, hence my Keeping Real Books Alive FB group, so apologies in advance but this has to be my best ever post this week and WELL DONE STEPHEN KING !!

Question Of The Week
Mother’s Day is just around the corner…
This week, we’re celebrating Mothers!

What do you love most about your mother?

Do you have any special Mother’s Day traditions?

What are your favorite childhood memories of your mom?

Are you looking forward to being a mother or grandmother?

What do you love most about being a mom?

How has motherhood changed you?
Do you have any tips for mothers-to-be?
What are the best (and worst) Mother’s Day gifts you’ve received?

Be sentimental.
Be heartwarming.

Be funny.

Whatever you choose to share,

We look forward to reading your ancedotes about

Mothers, Motherhood and Mother’s Day this week


Being a Mom is a special unique gift, full of unconditional love, yes it's hard work and I'm not denying it but the rewards certainly outweigh that !!

My tip to any mother-to-be is to try and enjoy as much as you can because the time passes so quickly that you will suddenly wake up and find that your once baby is now a teenager with attitude who no longer requires you as much and then your full of regrets.  Don't make having a baby an issue for not being able to do things that you need doing, simply rearrange your day and to fit particular jobs in that you can manage when the baby is awake, sounds simple but only when its pointed out, believe me I've been there  :-)

Memories of my Mom, her life was always full, full of love for her family, always there for her friends, always a shoulder to cry on, keeping the house spotless and the beautiful meals on the table, beyond anything else I loved her to bits xxx
I love you both!!! Mothers Day





Hosted by hosts Parajunkee & Alison Can Read

THIS WEEKS QUESTION
Q: What is one thing you wish you could tell your favorite author?


My husband and I used to do a lot of country walking, even with our firstborn sitting on my hubbies back wondering what on earth was going on probably.  Then life seemed to take over, especially being the kids chauffeurs - here there and everywhere, and we never seemed to get back to our love for the walking.

A while ago I read Every Natural Fact by Amy Lou Jenkins, all about her nature treks with her son and it brought the spark back for getting out there as a family again.  I'm pleased to say we have now had a few family walks since reading her book and I cannot thank her enough for bringing that part of our life back.

Thank you Amy Lou Jenkins xx

Friendship Friday - What would you wish for ? / Feature & Follow Friday

Friendship Friday

Welcome to Friendship Friday hosted by Create with Joy – a week-long opportunity to:
  • Foster friendships with other bloggers!
  • Share what’s unique about yourself and your blog!
  • Grow your blog and social media networks!
Question Of The Week

Imagine that you were given the power to make one wish.

You could wish for anything (except more wishes!)

What would it be?

My wish would be that money didn't exist.  Everybody would be equal  and just got on with the day to day living.  Concentrating on what matters in their lives, their families, food on the table, health.  There would be no more time for greed and power or waste for that fact.

That would be my wish x

Happy Earth Day!


FEATURE AND FOLLOW FRIDAY

This weeks question

Q: Have you had a character that disappointed you? One that you fell in love with and then "broke up" with later on in either the series or a stand-alone book? Tell us about him or her.

At the moment, I haven't got an answer for this one.  I know my husband would say the tv series of  his crime and thriller detective books is nothing at all like the book reads which he did get a little upset over.

Friendship Friday #15

Friendship Friday
Question Of The Week
What are you passionate about?
Share what inspires and moves you!
Write a post about your passions…
Share your favorite quote(s) on passion…
This week, embrace your passions!


One of my obvious passions has to be books !!
We currently live and breathe books, we're surrounded by them at home, when we got out we are constantly looking for our next ' special find ' and when I'm on the computer it's usually all I'm working on !!

My other passion, inspiration has to be my beautiful family :-)
Without them my life would be incomplete, I am thankful everyday to have them with me.
