This has been some week.  I have been helping my husband find my Birthday present. No luck so far. Its a week from today. I went and sat with him on the back porch and told him not to worry I would not get upset if we did not find what I want.  We are looking for a cocker spaniel dog, fem, black,brown and white.  I would love to find one at a shelter but there are none in the area or even east coast of Florida.. Even looked in lower Georgia.  This is what I want and I am willing to wait. Have not seen anything else that I like.  I even named her B B MA after my fav author Debbie Macomber. www.debbiemacomber.com

This week I am reading new authors to me that were suggested by other authors I follow on facebook. I am known as me on facebook  Dona Hopkins West in case you want to follow. I finished KAKI  WARNER’S PIECES OF SKY waiting for the next book to come in the mail OPEN COUNTRY. Yesterday I got a email from Kaki Warner saying I have won a contest and I will be getting a signed book in the mail real soon.. How cool is that. She lives in Washington State as does my fav author Debbie Macomber  you can look her up at www.kakiwarner.com  you can follower her on facebook also. Now I am reading another new author to me SARA LUCK  readingSUSANNA’S CHOICE  both authors write about the early west.  No indians but lots of wagon trains, gold rushes and romance.

I started selling on eBay last week selling shot glasses and postcards. Did not do very well so I think today will be my last day. I can’t see not making my money back and going to all the work for not.

Hope to see you all this weekend at the Lake City Flea Market. Some of the kids and grandkids are coming up this weekend can’t wait and in a week or two some more.

Happy Birthday Dad we miss you so much. Think of you and Mother often.

Hubby just came in with the mail my book I ordered OPEN COUNTRY BY KAKI WARNER just came. I got a birthday card from my far away daughter and a doctor reminder.. I made it on my Birthday so I can have lunch in Gainsville. So the day is shaping up.

Have a great weekend my friends and I hope someone reads and likes this blog.

pretty good weekend. Found  a customer helping out his wife look for books..He was in the Historical Romance section. He even came up to me and asked if I had B. Smith before he began looking .. So unlike a man. I like him so much for asking and helping his wife I asked if I could take his picture for my blog today and he said yes. How great is that three wonderful in a row. Next thing I will learn is to turn camera or learn to turn picture.  LOL

I have been busy working on my eBay inserts.. Two come out this hour. I need to work on my postage I think I am charging the wrong fee’s I will get it right by next week. Postage goes up this week. So if you don’t have the everything stamp your postage will be going up. And if you have regular stamps you will be heading to the post office to get more..

I had a facetime chat with my daughter the other day she helped me fix up this blog so it went out on twitter and then to Facebook without me sending it. How great is that.. I hope you are following up and will let me know what you think of my store here in Lake City,Florida and my items on eBay. and of course this blog.

I think I told all of you I am looking for a female cocker spaniel, she will be black and white or even have a little brown in her ..  I will name her B B MA after on of my favorite authors Debbie MAcomber  the A is long  and B is like the letter … I am hoping to get her by my birthday so you all have a few weeks to find her .. House broke would be fine …LOL…

Have a great day and talk to you soon I will not promise to get back to every day but will try at least twice a week…
