Life in my world has been a little bit crazy lately. At the beginning of this month my Wonder Beagle Snickers passed over the rainbow bridge. His health had been failing and it was getting too difficult for him to move around, which included being able to get out and go to the bathroom. If you know the story of Snickers, you know he has had severe epileptic seizures since he was a pup and has been under a vet’s care to keep them under control. Between age and the wear and tear his medications took, his spirit was willing, but his body just couldn’t keep up any longer. It broke my heart to see him struggle and so we made the hard decision to allow him peace in his eternal rest. If you’re a pet parent, you know how painful this decision can be. Our family grieved his passing though we had many good memories to share of God’s special Wonder Beagle, Snickers.
Not long after that, I started subbing in at my and my husband’s food service business. I always love going in to work, but as a writer, I’m not used to being on my feet all day long. And it’s been years since I had to get up early to drive into work. It might not seem like a huge deal to most, but to an insomniac who has a specific sleep schedule to follow, it was a challenge to change, especially when Daylight Savings Time also fell at the same time I filled in. Though I know this is first world problems and many people have to get up every day to go to work, I’m going to enjoy sleeping in and giving my feet a rest!
The best news just dropped on me today, though!! The Girl with Fire in Her Veins is up for preorder! If you’ve been waiting for the second book in my Firebird series, it’s ready for you to get before the price goes up on April 25th when it releases. Don’t miss out on this sizzling hot deal!

So as this month comes to an end and I reflect on the ups and downs, I’m so thankful for all of my family and friends who have reached out with words of support and kindness. As I told one of my friends, I do feel a bit like Alice in Wonderland when she went through much muchness in her journey. This month has sure been full of that maddening muchness.
I pray that your life might not be so full of muchness and that blessings always smooth your uneven path.
