ALS (Motor Neuron Disease) Ice Bucket Challenge
My daughter, best friend and I were all nominated for the challenge so we decided to do it together, on the street, outside my friend’s coffee shop.
We stopped traffic and everyone had a great laugh especially my friend’s daughter who throw water balloons at us!
A fun time was had by all on an otherwise bleak, wet, depressing day.
The important thing is to remember why we did it – to support the Irish Motor Neuron Disease fund. This awful disease is known outside Ireland as ALS. Too many people suffer with too little help, let’s change that in our own small way….
Don’t forget to keep donating!
Watch us getting a good soaking!

My Fingers may Drop off!
Decided to write a small bit more of my novel today. Got a bit carried away and over 1200 words later I thought I would take a break as I write longhand. My fingers were cramping but my brain was still racing.
I fired up the laptop intending to play a few facebook games or catch up with peeps on twitter.
I couldn’t resist it could I?
I’ll just type up a few pages of the novel and edit as I go. 1500 words later my wrists as well as my fingers are cramping.
Time to take a break.
Open wordpress.
Start typing new post…..

First book; 10,000 words typed and edited (first edit!), 3,000 words of next book in series written, reading 2 books for review, and 1 waiting to be read and reviewed… It’s been a busy weekend so far and it looks like it’s going to stay that way.
Will post reviews as soon as I can, loving both books so far! If you want to know what they are check out my Goodreads profile
