Sliver Moon

A slice of moon hangs over the night.
A sliver of golden yellow against a cobalt sky.
Its crescent shape,

corners turned upward, toward Heaven, resembles a smile.
On a cold winter eve, this shard of light guides me, brightens my journey,

leads the way home.

SUMMERTIME, SUMMERTIME, SUM, SUM, SUMMERTIME.....

I hope you have all enjoyed the great weather over the Memorial Day weekend. It's a good beginning to the summer season.





WRITING UPDATE: CAROUSEL KISSES

Carousel Kisses will be available soon. Hopefully, you will be able to find it on Amazon and Barnes & Noble sometime this month. My publisher, Tide Dancer Publications, has been working hard to get my book out there in the world. Rene Morris has designed a fantastic cover. I have been busy working on rebuilding my luvs2write website and starting a blog/website for the book. You will be able to find out more about the book at http://www.carouselkisses.blogspot.com/. It is under construction right now, but will be ready before long. I have new bookmarks and business cards. I will send out updates via personal email, on my blog, Facebook and LinkedIn as I get them.

MY WRITING GROUP: NORTH SHORE SCRIBES

The new website for North Shore Scribes is up and running. Not all of our members are on it yet, but it is a work in progress. Each member will soon have a page for posting her own work. You can visit us at http://www.northshorescribes.wordpress.com/. Please stop by and feel free to leave a comment. Bookmark the site and visit often, as I will be adding some good stuff. We are celebrating our second anniversary as a writing group on the North Shore at a luncheon later this month.

DISNEY 2010:

We had some hot weather in Disney World last month. Every day was in the high 80's to 90 something. I got in a lot of pool time. I danced on stage with Chubby Checker! We "Twisted the Night Away." Well, a little of it anyway. I went to two of his shows in one night. Talk about nostalgia.

Lori, my brother Rick and I had some fun at Hollywood Studios on the Great Movie Ride. We saw the Indiana Jones show and participated in American Idol at the American Idol Theater. We had a fun lunch at the Prime Time 50's Diner.


OTHER HAPPENINGS IN THE REHAL WORLD:

We just celebrated Dick's 50th year class reunion at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Danvers. Lots of great photos popping up on Facebook. It was the best reunion the LCHS class of 1960 has ever had. A great time was had by all who attended.

My class reunion is coming up in September. LEHS class of 1965, September 24th at Gannon in Lynn. If you were a member of this class, try to make it. If you know someone who was, please tell them about it in case they don't already know.

Thanks for reading my blog. Please stop by again.

Happy summer to everyone!
