I can't help but sigh softly as I lean back in my chair, contemplating responses owed. Will I have time to get to them today? Hopefully. So much to do but it will all come together I'm sure.

There's a slight quirk to my lips as my mind wanders, wondering what a certain elf will run into next. I have an idea, but it's not fully formed yet.

A certain detective is about to become a personal bodyguard and will deal with a stalker. That should be fun.

A Marine has come to a homestead seeking a job with a family that has lost a Marine who gave his all. This one, I wait on with softly held breath.

A certain battle mage has a decision to make. What will he do?

My list seems endless but it's not. I had an offer the other day and regretfully, I had to turn them down. I think holding 13 threads is more than enough and that doesn't include the ones on hold while I wait for my co-writers to get back, if they do. But I was tempted. So, tempted.

Concentrate girl concentrate.
 
My day is over for the most part. Everything is set to order or some such. Dinner is simmering and I'm wishing it were Monday or maybe even late Sunday already. I know that makes me sound like a grouch, but that's how I am feeling at the moment. A grouch.

But, this too shall pass. I'll get through this. I'll smile until my face hurts. I'll sneak off and hide when I feel like exploding. It's just 3 1/2 days. That's doable. So, why don't I sound more convincing???
 
George Strait - I Cross My Heart

Our love is unconditional
We knew it from the start
I can see it in your eyes
You can feel it from my heart
From here on after
Lets stay the way we are right now
And share all the love and laughter
That a lifetime will allow

[Chorus:]

I cross my heart
And promise to
Give all I've got to give
To make all your dreams come true
In all the world
You'll never find
A love as true as mine

You will always be the miracle
That makes my life complete
And as long as there's still breath in me
I'll make yours just as sweet
As we look into the future
It's as far as we can see
So let's make each tomorrow
Be the best that it can be

[Chorus]

And if along the way we find a day
It starts to storm
You've got the promise of my love
To keep you warm​

Broken Bridges - Toby Keith

There are bridges on life's highway
But we never see them there.
Some cross troubled waters
Some don't go nowhere.
Some you wouldn't step on,
If you were trying to save your soul.
One comes with a keeper
When it's time to pay the toll.
Some aren't meant to last forever
Some are made of stone.
Some are meant to cross together,
Some you go alone.
Some the slightest wind can send them,
Crashing to the ground.
I set a bridge on fire,
But I could not burn it down.

[Chorus]
Now here I am(ooohh)
Prayin for forgiveness
And I can see you(And I can see you)
Standing on the other side(oohh)
Here I go (Here I go)
And Baby it's a heavy load (It's a heavy load)
I have crossed some broken bridges in my time
(Broken bridges in my time)

Now here I am (Now here I am)
Prayin for forgiveness (Prayin for forgiveness)
And I can see you (oh I can see you)
Standing on the other side
(Standing on the other side)
Here I go (Now, here I go)
And Buddy it's a heavy load (Baby it's a heavy load)
But I have crossed some broken bridges in my time
(crossed some broken bridges in my time)
Yes, I have crossed some broken bridges in my time.
 
DUSTIN LYNCH - Cowboys and Angels


There's a want and there's a need
There's a history between
Girls like her and guys like me
Cowboys and angels
I've got boots and she's got wings
I'm hell on wheels and she's heavenly
I'd die for her and she lives for me
Cowboys and angels

Chorus
We ride side by side
A cloud of dust, a ray of light
My touch is her temptation
Her kiss is my salvation
She's sweet, I'm wild, we're dangerous
Cowboys and angels

I'm not sure why her path crossed mine
Accident or grand design
Maybe God just kinda likes
Cowboys and angels

Chorus
We ride side by side
A cloud of dust, a ray of light
My touch is her temptation
Her kiss is my salvation
She's sweet, I'm wild, we're dangerous
Cowboys and angels

There's a want and there's a need
There's a history between
Girls like you and guys like me
Cowboys and angels
 
Found this on my travels...

...thought of you ;)

*chuckles*

*kisses a soft cheek with a grin*

Thank you, lovely witch. I'm sure FD would agree with it. I'll go along with the trouble part. I'm not so sure how much is worth it though. ;)
 
Slowly and in bits, the mansion is being decorated for All Hallows. Candles were turning up everywhere.

There's a list being drawn up for food and drink for the open house she'll be holding as well.
