2020 the Year of Danielle Steel. Well, it’s 2020 and I decided to make this the year of Danielle Steel. My intention this year is to read all Danielle Steel’s books in my collection. I have several re-reads, but it’s been over 20 years since the last time I read them.

If I add any more of her book to my collection this year they will also be added to my list. So, I’m a very slow reader and I figured if I stick with her books it may get me back into a good flow. Does that sound crazy to you?

The first book I decided to read for the year is called Going Home. My mom bought the book years ago and when I was a teenager, she thought I may like to read it. I want to see if it makes me have the same feeling I did when I was younger. My hope is that it does not disappoint.

I will not be adding County or The Apartment to my list because I read those recently and I’ve already done video reviews for both books.

I’m sure I will throw in a few other non-Danielle Steel books this year plus some audiobooks. Be looking for those also.

My channel will have a new playlist added for all the Danielle Steel book reviews. So, I think it’ll be easier and more efficient if I pile all of those videos in one location.

Do you like reading Danielle Steel books? If you’re interested in reading along with me and want to know what I’m reading now and what the next book will be let me know. I would love to have some reading partners so that we can discuss the books as we read them.

So, if you’re not interested in reading Danielle Steel that’s OK. Let me know if you set up your own reading challenge for the year and if you’re on good reads leave me your username and I’ll be sure to follow you.

The Royals, Eminem Shooting Video and Pornhub Barking

The Royals, Eminem Shooting Video and Pornhub Barking. So, It’s been a little while since I’ve done a weekly win(e)d up but here we are again! We started with TMZ gossip as we always do. Of course, there’s been a lot of gossip about Harry and Megan and the fact that they have left the royal family. So, there appears to be a lot of drama going on with that and in my opinion, I think they should just stay in England. Yes, I do understand that my opinion means nothing on this but I’m going to express it anyway.

Dababy assaulted hotel workers. Who in the hell is “Dababy”? Am I really that old and out of touch? Also, have you ever heard of rapper Pop Smoke? How do they come up with these names?

Odell Beckham Jr. slapped a cop’s ass and I’m sure there was a payday for that one. So, I have no problem with him slapping my ass if I can make bank from it. Would you allow it from some $$$…..I would totally allow it. So, I need a farm with goats y’all!

Rihanna split from her long-term boyfriend Hassan Jameel. They were together for 3 years before calling it quits.

Did you see the Eminem video where he goes from talking about him being on stage and switches to the Las Vegas shooting? What did you think of that video? Thought and options are welcome.

Oh, and we can’t forget about the Pornhub drama. They are being sued because the company makes it hard for the deaf to enjoy it. So, Greg had a strong opinion on this one. He feels like everyone should hear women barking on porn videos. And with that, he drops his mic.

Cardi B….I just can’t! Her outfit she wore to her husband’s fashion show was enough to leave Greg speechless.

So, we talked about many more topics in this week’s Weekly Win(e)d-Up so make sure you watch the video and join in on the discussion. Pick a topic and let’s chat about it.

Always by Sarah Jio Book Review

This site contains affiliate links to products. We may receive a commission for purchases made through these links.

Always by Sarah Jio Book Review. I’m back with another book review. This time I decided to read Always by Sarah Joi. It’s the first book of hers that I have read. I loved the cover and the description also grabbed my attention. I did have some mixed feelings about the book once I finished it. I’ve come to terms with my own personal feeling and I can honestly say that I really did enjoy the book.

The book did frustrate me but that is because of my own personal life circumstances. It really got my thinking about my past and I was all in my feelings. In my opinion that is what a good book should do. Am I right?!

I keep my notes in my phone so I can go over my feelings, anything important that pops up and a sentence about each chapter. It’s a cool way to summarize the chapter or my feelings as I’m reading.

So, the book starts with Kailey and Ryan who are engaged to get married. They go out to dinner one night and as they are leaving the restaurant Kailey sees a homeless man who she believes is her ex-boyfriend.

Kailey then has flashback of the past and they book takes us along that journey. Following her through the scattered memories of the past to help her understand the present. The story jumps from past to present but it’s easy to follow. The chapters move from present day to past.

She is conflicted between the two men in her life and what her heart is telling her to do. There is a mystery about what happened to her ex Cade. Kailey works are to uncover the secrets from her past.

I would suggest giving this book a read. This is an author that I will read more books from when they come my way. Very nice story. Let me know if you have read this book and tell me your thought on it.

B'More Hooker Hunters or Murder Mystery

This site contains affiliate links to products. We may receive a commission for purchases made through these links.

B’More Hooker Hunters or Murder Mystery. So, Greg made breakfast for us this morning. We had leftover peppers and onions from the other day. He added that to some sausage and made an egg scramble. So, we like to come up with random meals based on what we have in the fridge that needs to be eaten. I added taco bell sauce to my breakfast to change things up a little bit.

I’m tracking my workouts and blood pressure in my Erin Condren planner. I think I will use it more like a diary this year.

My workout was ok this morning and I realized that I am way out of shape. So, I need to focus on making healthy habits and I can push myself further once I do that. My sports bra was cutting into me so I ended my workout earlier than I wanted to.

Now that I finally got my Jeep back from it being serviced for the oil leak, we can make her pretty. Greg bought Bartact Jeep seat covers so we are working on trying to get them installed.

So, in the evening Greg and I stayed up late watching (or spying…if you want to call it that) on our neighbors. We have noticed a lot of activity over there recently and are pretty sure they are running a prostitution ring. They have a red light and everything over there. So, we could be wrong but you have to love our wild imagination.

Kitchen Experiment, Hanging with Digger and Future Plans

Kitchen Experiment, Hanging with Digger and Future Plans. We had a tornado come through on Halloween night. So, we need to get out into the yard to pick up the branches and sticks that fell down due to the storm.

Digger is not enjoying this cold weather so we try to shield him from the wind and make his outdoor time as quick as possible.

Greg and I experimented with a burrito bol meal and it turned out better than we thought it would. We decided to add chicken to it to add more protein. I will share the recipe once we get it all written down and tested one more time.

Daylights savings happened and we went to Gettysburg Outlets to visit the Kitchen Collection store before they close for good at the end of 2019. It’s so cold outside and my ear is starting to hurt. I hope I’m not getting sick.

We did our usual fight with Digger to get him to eat. He loves to play with his food and it can take up to 2 hours to play and get him to eat. He’s a chihuahua and that’s what they do.

I’ve got a lot on my mind lately about some new paths I’m following and pan to follow in the next year. Everything I’m focused on is reading more, fitness and spirituality. So, plan on seeing more about that in the future.

Plan on seeing more tarot and playing card type related videos as well. In 2020 I will be doing Tibetan Bon astrology for those that are interested. Oh and check out this cool new tarot deck I found called happy tarot. I’m really enjoying these cards lately and they are very easy to handle and use.

Bicycle Favole Playing Card Deck

This site contains affiliate links to products. We may receive a commission for purchases made through these links.

Bicycle Favole Playing Card Deck. As you know, I have a little bit of a playing card addiction. I love collecting odd decks and this one really caught my attention. I’ve seen the deck before in bookstores but never really paid attention until I saw the deck online.

I really think the artwork in this deck is stunning. Also, for playing card decks this is a unique one. I love that the artwork on each card is different. As someone who uses these decks for divination and fortune-telling, it has a lot of character.

It’s a bicycle deck so it shuffles as you would expect. So, I have a ton of bicycle decks and I think they shuffle well and they are long-lasting quality card stock.

This is one of the two decks that made me realize that I wanted to dabble into tarot readings. Something about the pictures of these cards really spoke to me and touched me in a way that I have never experienced before.

Speak Up and Don’t Hold Back

Speak Up and Don’t Hold Back. Today I want to talk about keeping things in a professional manner. Dealing with the same people and situations over and over again can become cumbersome. I’m 40 and still learning each day, so don’t worry if you are in the same boat as me.

I tend to let things weigh on me until it explodes. It’s not something I’m proud of, but it is something I can acknowledge is a weakness. My new motto is to simply speak up. It’s not healthy to lose your voice at the office. When I started this current job, I planned on working and keeping a low profile. The universe does not want me to sit quietly, so I’m speaking up more.

It’s been a healthy change, and I am seeing more progress coming from it. Change does not happen overnight, but it does happen, so keep focused.

Now, if you are like me and can come off harshly at first, it may be best to take a step back before you even begin. You already know that you should practice what you want to say so you don’t ramble on (like I tend to do) or say something in anger. The last thing you want to do is apologize for getting caught up in the moment.

Journaling is an excellent way to get all your feelings and emotions out in the open before expressing yourself to management. Also, practice your meeting beforehand so you can make sure your points come across correctly. I record myself and ask for second opinions when needed.

Once you figure out what you want to say and have practiced the delivery of it, you can move to the next step.

Schedule a meeting with the person. Schedule and private meeting space so you can do this uninterrupted. Also, remember the nice sandwich. Say something positive, then included the negative, aka the issue, and end with another positive. This has worked well for me in the past.

You can do this! I have faith in you!

Thanksgiving and the Start of Vlogmas

Thanksgiving and the Start of Vlogmas. Can you believe it’s the beginning of Vlogmas already?! I’m really excited to do this for y’all this year. I promise to put my best foot forward and try to get a video up every single day for you.

I hope y’all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Greg and I spent it at home together with digger eating the foods that we enjoy the most. I’ve never really been a fan of the typical Thanksgiving dinners. You can keep the green bean casserole and candied yams for somebody else.

Am I the only one that feels that way? If those foods were so good why don’t people make them more frequently than just once a year?! It’s just something to consider and think about.

The other day I was telling you about some new ice cream that Greg found. We call it the orgasm ice cream. It may sound a little crazy at first. Every time Greg and I are in the store and we see somebody near the ice cream they look like they’re ready to orgasm.

We did try the Tillamook ice cream and I must say that it is some of the best ice cream I’ve ever had in my entire life. The peanut butter just melts in your mouth it’s so smooth and creamy. For something that’s in ice cream it’s not exactly what I was expecting. If you get the opportunity I would highly recommend getting some to try. Ice cream can be a little pricey but it’s worth it.

Digger just laid on the couch and relaxed while Greg and I cooked dinner. My poor little boy has been going through some medical things lately. He’s getting up there in age his body is telling him to slow down but his mind is telling him he still a child.

Greg and I are just making sure to keep an extra close eye on Digger and keep him as calm and peaceful as possible.

The dinner was really good. Digger ate some turkey and ham so he had a good night too. We had a little wine with dinner and relaxed for the evening with no real plans for the rest of the weekend. My only goal is to get the Christmas tree up and put away the fall decour.

Also, I’m currently reading Valley of the Dolls. It’s a book I read over 20 years ago but it left a lasting impression on me. Greg bought the book for me last year and I decided to reread it now. Let me know if you’ve ever read this book or click on the link above to purchase a copy for yourself.

Thanks for hanging out with me and I’ll have another video post it again soon.

Kitchen Experiment, Hanging with Digger and Future Plans

Kitchen Experiment, Hanging with Digger and Future Plans. Vlogmas is here and I’m getting this last bit of vlog clips together so we can jump feet first into Vlogmas.

Greg decided to make his version of a burrito bol dip and it came out as a major winner. A recipe will be coming in the near future. We wanted to make sure that we have it perfect before sharing it with y’all. I will tell you that it is super simple to make.

One of our favorite stores will be closing before the end of the year. We got an email from Kitchen Collections that they will be closing all stores by the end of the year.

This was the weekend that the time changed so we were all messed up with our timing. While we were out Greg got hungry so we did not get to the store as planned and just went home to eat lunch.

Digger is getting a little older and his body is not working like it used to. He does not seem to realize that in his older age he should take it easy. He is just like Greg in that respect.

Digger has been to the vet and they did x-rays and took some blood work. Nothing major came back but we know is that Digger needs to take it easy. It’s getting harder for him to breath and this cold weather is not doing him any favors.

I’ve taken a lot of time this year to figure out what I want out of life. My hope is to be a positive light in this world and not bring negativity into it. This does not mean I’m perfect and flawed because we all are. I just know that I’m working on not jumping into situations and I’ve taken a step back to experience what is going on around me. So, I don’t need to be the center of attention (all the time). I mean…I do like attention but I don’t need to be greedy with it 😉

It’s also important for me to do the things that interest me and serve others also. More on that to come soon.

The Job Spotter app has been good to us recently so Greg and I bought some items off Amazon. So, I saw this Happy Tarot deck on Amazon and I was drawn to it. I’ve done a few readings and it’s been accurate. It’s like we have a good language together already.

IFBB Masters Baltimore Pro NPC Baltimore Classic Championships Baltimore

IFBB Masters Baltimore Pro NPC Baltimore Classic Championships Baltimore. My BFF Dawnn competed this year and I was happy to spend the entire day watching the show and showing her support. It’s been a long time since I immersed myself in the competition scene. I did not compete this year but it has put me in a different mindset.

If you’ve never been to a show before I would suggest looking for a local one in your area. The Maryland area events can be found here.

I have a lot of thoughts about competing again and I will save that for another time. I’ve done the weight loss thing in the past but this time it will be more mental than anything else.

It was a journey for my girlfriend and I could not be more proud of her. We work this one together. I was available whenever she needed a pep talk or to vent.

Doing a competition is really a you vs you sport. This is something that you can have support during but in the end, you need to get your head out of your ass and just do it!

I say that in a harsh manner because that is the way I see it. That’s what got me get through my two shows.

This was a pro show so it was longer than normal shows but it was cool to see people from all over the world. It was pretty amazing and I got to watch some fitness routines. They are my favorite because I love anything that has a dance routine attached to it.

My friend Dawnn won hardware that night and she looked amazing. The inspiration she gave me is huge. I needed to see her succeed. I knew she would and I’m so proud of her.

Even though this sport is a single-player sport it really does help when you have a strong support system when you need it.

I’m not sure what the future will hold but I do know that I can and will improve from where I am today. Next year will hold good things for all of us.
