All is good...well, except for the weather

If I see one more "Winter Storm Warning" or "Winter Weather Advisory" or "Winter Whatever," I'm gonna puke. I'm sure my friends on the east coast and upstate New York are laughing at me. But, I'm in Indianapolis where we maybe get a few major snows for the winter. Not a major snow every other day. And the forecasters? They suck. Sorry, but they do. lol Especially since we were due 1-2 inches today according to them and ended with 5.

On the good news front, I had my surgery a week ago and my follow-up appt with the breast surgeon yesterday. She excised the lesion plus some surrounding tissue, which all, thank God, came back benign. I have another follow-up in three months.

More on the good news front, Phyllis and I bought our plane tickets for Orlando and the Golden Crown Literary Society Conference, June 9-12. The next step is to reserve our hotel room, which will come once they get that up on the GCLS website. If you love lesfic and would like to meet and mingle with authors and other readers, this is the Conference for you. It's a blast. This will be my third. I'm looking forward to it even more this year since Phyllis was unable to attend last summer because of her broken foot. I felt lost down there, even though I still had fun with friends. It wasn't the same.

Anyway...I encourage you to join the GCLS if you haven't already done so. It's only $20 for a year's membership. Visit the GCLS website, www.goldencrown.org. You'll find links on there to the Conference and how to purchase tickets.

I'll be excited since Two for the Show, the sequel to Playing for First, will be out in time to discuss with everyone (and to sign copies!). I hope to see you in June! (don't worry; I'll promote it a LOT more between now and then)
