Taking Time Off For Me

I have been working hard, struggling to get my revisions done.  I almost turned down an invitation to go visit, and celebrate New Years with my sister and her family in Lake Arrowhead.  I have decided to put everything on hold, for just two days!  I am taking my nephew with me, and we are going to relax and have fun!  My mother told me, "All work and no play, makes Susie a dull girl!"  Well, dull is what I will never be, but I understand.  I am spending some time away from the computer, just a little time, and I am going to have fun for me!  I wish you all a Happy New Year! I wish you all love and happiness!  I wish you all the strength to overcome your temptations!  You can do it! Anything is possible!

An Addict by Nature

Some people are just born to be an addict.  There is that certain something in our brains, that attracts us to the excitement and thrill of the unknown.  An addict can not live within moderation.  We basically have no concept of what is too little, or what is too much.  We either go all the way, or not at all.  If we exchange our negative behavior with positive actions and behavior, we can be addicted to that as well. Some addicts will stop using one drug, and switch to the next.  This is just replacing one bad habit with another.  If we have the ability to do that, then we have the ability to become addicted to something good.  Something like a healthy lifestyle, with exercise and eating right.  We will most likely take it to the extreme, but in all reality, it is better than the former habit.  Some addicts will stop abusing drugs, and become addicted to work.  Still, that is better than the former habit. Some things we can change, and some we we have to adapt to.  The bottom line

Book Revisions

Books 1 and 2 of the Sweet Melissa memoir series have been revised and are now available on Amazon.com.  The series is inspiring and hopefully it will reach someone who really needs it.
