Beautiful Easter Sunday spent with family and friends

Hello you guys,

I hope you all had a fabulous Easter with your family and friends. I certainly did. I got Mama up, fed and dressed and two of my brothers, their wives, some of their children and grandchildren and other friends came to the house after church. I had the kids to promise that they would show Mama and I their Easter outfits. They all looked really nice. After the kids changed into their casual clothing, we got involved in our family traditional Easter Egg hunt. The kids were running around, giggling as they chased each other and found eggs. They were having such fun that I decided to join in and I managed to find two eggs myself. The kids felt badly for me and gave me two extra eggs so I shared them with my friend.

Later that afternoon when Mama and were alone, she took a nap and I turned on the computer and did some work on a script, sent some e-mails, made some Facebook posts and afterwards, I took a much needed nap also. It was a beautiful day and we enjoyed it with family and friends. I hope your day was as good or even better. Until next time, God bless.

Watching the rain fall and caressed the Azales Bushes

Hello everyone,
This has been the most relaxing day. Decided to spend most of it with Mama, giving her lots of attention. After Mama and I got up this and got ready for our day, we went into the foyer, opened the front door and I sat on the floor next to Mama's chair in front of the outside glass door and we watched the rain fall on the Azales bushes, the Dogwood trees and the grass. It was lovely. Later, we had a nice meal and early evening, my brother brought us a great salad.

Take care you all until next time. Mama and I are going to watch the Celtics play New York.

Blessings,
Leigh & Mama

My sister is visiting from Atl

My sister is visiting from ATL and we, as always, have been having the best time. Her grandson had a birthday party at Chucky Cheese on Saturday early afternoon and my brother who retired from the Army after 25+ years was given a Retirement Party that evening. Mama and I are doing well. I am thinking about taking her for a little ride tomorrow if the weather is good. Until we talk again, take care and be blessed.

Favorite team

My favorite team, The Boston Celtics won their game tonight over the 76ers. Go Celtics. I'm still packing up books to be shipped to my distributor in Florida. They ordered 150 copies of my children's books, The Oak Trees That Talk(one book for each season and Belcher, The 10th Reindeer).

Mama eats two dinners so I'm about to feed her a light meal. She tends to sleep better when she has a full stomach. Take care you all and I will be talking with you soon.

Blessings,

Great weekend for book signings

Hello everyone,
This has been a great weekend for my family, friends and I. It was a terrific drive to Florence on Friday to Books A Million where I did my book signing. Event went well and I so appreciate all the love. I sold out of FROM MY FRONT PORCH and there wewre only 2 copies of SINNERS NEVER SLEEP left on the table. I drove to Charleston, SC on Saturday and sold a ton of books at that event as well. Thanks to everyone who came out and shared their love with me. I walked away from each event with many great friends. I love all of you.

Blessings.

Book Signing at BooksAMillion in Florence today went really well

Hello You All,
I haven't blogged in a while, problems with computer, but glad to be back on the scene. I had a nice drive over to Florence from Sumter, SC today for a book signing. I sold out of FROM MY FRONT PORCH and there were only 2 copies of SINNERS NEVER SLEEP left. I met so many nice people and I want to thank them all for their love and support. I certainly couldn't do this without them.
Well, Mama is asleep in her chair so I gotta run and put her to bed. Good night all and we will talk again soon.

Blessings.

Mama and I had breakfast in yard while brothers pressure washed house

It was a nice breezy morning on Wednesday and Mama and I had breakfast outside while my brothers, Jerry and Robert pressure washed our house and did some yard work. Mama enjoyed the wonderful breezes as I fed her. It was a great morning.

Mama and I returned to the inside nearly 1pm. I hope you are enjoying your summer.

Blessings to you all.
