Summer goals

I was just thinking about what I plan on doing this summer. The most important thing is STAY COOL. I hate being hot. I love the sun, but seriously? Does it have to get so stinking hot? I sweat . . . err, glisten . . . real easily, so I don't like being hot. I don't have air conditioning in my apartment, though I do have one fan that I am already using. Aw well. I guess I can't always have my way, eh? (I know, but I had to say it. I'm Canadian, eh?) Anyways, here's a few goals of mine this summer:

(1) read more - - - I would like to read a lot more books. I have about 300 books on my Kobo, plus about 50 physical copies I haven't read, yet. Not to mention, all the books I want to reread. Whew! Yep, that's definitely a goal of mine.

(2) write 20 000 words of "Hooked Forever" - - - I want to write this during the summer. I would love to write more than that, but, you know?

(3) Babysit more - - - I love to look after children and I intend to babysit more often this summer. Kids always make me so happy inside. They are my "kindred spirits."

(4) Go on a short vacation - - - I would love to go to Kelowna, B.C. or Calgary, Alberta this summer to visit family and friends. I don't know if I will be able to afford it, but here's hoping!

(5) Write more blogs - - - I really enjoy blogging, and I would love to have more followers. (hint hint!) I like to write my thoughts down, and know that people appreciate my opinions on things that are important to me. So, that said, please comment on my posts! I have two other blogs, as well.

(6) Finally, I want to live my life as a witness for God. I want to show people the love and peace Jesus can give them. I am not here to judge anyone for how they live. I am only here to spread the Good News. Jesus loves you, my friends. I would never force my beliefs on anyone, but know that I will stand up for Him.

Thank you for reading me!

Life Update and Living The Game

    LIFE UPDATE: HI! I haven't written anything in so long! I am so sorry. I hope to contribute more to my blog  more often now.      So, what's been going on in my life this last year? Well, I babysat a wonderful little girl full time for about a year before she moved to a different city. I love her and still keep in contact with her. In fact, I'm going to go see her in about a week to spend three glorious days with her and her parents. I am so darn excited! She had become like a daughter to me and I miss her deeply.       Since the last time I blogged, I started two YouTube channels! Knit and Crochet With a Gilmoregirl is a knitting and crocheting podcast. Join me if you would like to! I currently have forty-seven subscribers from all over the world. I love doing this podcast. I've been doing everything yarny for quite a while now, and I love sharing my passion with other people.       My second YouTube channel is a booktube. You can find it by searching, C

CHAPTER 1 of Living The Game

This is a sneak peek at my novel, "Living The Game." Hope you enjoy it! CHAPTER 1 OLIVIA I don’t belong here on earth. For as long as I can remember, I’ve felt that way; like I wasn’t meant to be born. I was a mistake, as my mom often reminded me. My parents were young when I was conceived, barely out of high school. My Grandpa, Mom’s dad, threatened my dad with his life if he didn’t marry his pregnant girlfriend. Neither she nor he wanted to get married, but they were scared not to. I was born, seven months later. For nine years, I was told I wasn’t wanted. My dad left us two years after they married, and my mom blamed me for that right from the start. She began to hit me, starting with a simple slap in the face, and ending with me in the hospital. It happened when I was nearly ten years old. I had been late getting home from school because I was held in detention after cl
