God that was worst than what i did to Matthew's!!!!
Meesha - Question for all of you writers! How do you keep yourself motivated? Do you ever get distracted?
mary f - Geez Moose I'm never that organized!
Rebecca de Winter - In my HR, RITES OF LOVE, the heroine comes to find the Indian agent in the Everglades. She's already danced for him at the Corn Dance and now she has come to claim him. He's out in the Glades dying for her and thinks he's lost her. Then she shows up in her native Indian clothes and tells him she's come for him. My heart still pounds so hard when I think of that scene I can hardly breathe.
Delyn - skippy... why'd they name the devil skippy...
Rebecca de Winter - Of course, Mary.
gerri - Hi guys......
mary f - Thanks Rebecca!
TriceCyn - Hi Gerri

hebehills - Hi Gerri
Delyn - Trice... so what did you do to your aunt's... and I'll say in advance if my niece ever thought of anything like that... she'd better think again.
gerri - Ann doesn't come here anymore
mary f - Why not Trice?
TriceCyn - Welll.....for almost 10 years now we been doing this back and forth Delyn y aunt and myself that is
mary f - Hello Gerri
moose - Trice . We had a christmas party at work and some idiot gave a gag gift that no one understood ...and it wasn't even a gag gift party . We were doing 20-25 dollar gifts and this idiot gives the 16 yo boy at work a rubber chicken with a lollipop in it's mouth . When the jerk left we all put in a buck and went upstairs to the store and bought him a Tshirt to make up for the idiot . he loved the shirt and we were proud that he didn't say anything until the guy left .
Delyn - gerri... I have trouble remembering what to type for most of the icons... skippy ...
Rebecca de Winter - Meesha, I'm always motivated unless there's illness or pain in the family.
TriceCyn - Because I would organized you and your books and EVERYTHING!!!!! Mary
Delyn - Aahhh... that's ok... don't want my niece to start anything like that yet.
TriceCyn - Which Ann Gerri ????
moose - Hubby must be disgusted with the game because he just went and got in the shower instead of finishing watching the game .
gerri - well she would always say skippy made me do it.....
mary f - Help come now I just stack as I buy and cant find a thing!
Mac - I have 4 small kids...distraction comes easily around here.
TriceCyn - Ok well be typing what i did to my aunt's gift...it will be long.....
gerri - just Ann.....I don't think anyone here knows her.....I haven't seen her in ages
Meesha - I think I chose the wrong word when I wrote motivation....I love to write...however between my nasty ex, my 4 year old, the ranch and my business, it seems that I never get to put my writing first =0(
TriceCyn - ok in May Mary I will stay one day longer just for your house!!! /
moose - Mac , Did you see my post ? The adoption is all over ? The girls are officially Dickies and mine not just mine ... . Now he can't say Do something with your kids anymore because I will say ...They are yours buddy and I have the papers to prove it ...RLMFAO
Rebecca de Winter - I figured that's what you meant. When your children are small, of course there are plenty of distractions. somehow you work around them.
Mac - Good for you, moose.
moose - Becky . Mac can tell you all about writing with kids ...lots of kids at that ...BG
Delyn -
Rebecca de Winter - Congratulations, Moose. What a great xmas present.

Delyn - Moose... the original certs, or copies of them?
Mac - oh yes she is....completely and without a doubt.
C - more like chucky reborn
TriceCyn - With my Aunt's gift I placed an old VCR box in to a DVD Box...On the VCR BOx....I put a frog that makes nosies when you rock it (Aunt loves frogs) it's a stuffed med size frog....I wrapped that frog into bags like 5 of them and placed it in the VRC boc...I staple guned that box closed with tape too...then placed it in the DVD box....I stapled gun that puppy on both sides then used duct tape and clear packing taped it to death then wrapped the DVD box in layers with 8 pastek bages....lmao then I added a note that said "BeAware Sharp Items...Don't get hurt...(Evil Laughter)"
Mac - The spawn of hell, of course, she IS my brother's child.
Rebecca de Winter - Not Chucky------ he terrifies me.
