Fun girls have fun friends who give away fun prizes, too!!!

My family and friends are loving me not being on deadline!!! I'm alive, they're relieved to know ;O) And still interested in taking part in the real world, no less (yes, I've rolled from one book deadline to another for the last 12 months or so, but now that I have a few weeks off, I can honestly say I'm a real world kind of gal again, LOL!).

Okay, so on with the more fun prizes I promised. Catherine Mann and I go back way too many years (back to when both of us were dreaming if being published and working our buns off trying to get there and not lose hope). And we've been partying every chance we get since. Cathy's latest HQN single title, Blaze of Glory, is out--part of her wingman warriors serires, of course--and to celebrate, she's chatting it up on eHarlequin and giving away great prizes (including one of my Funky Purses on Friday).

Here's the link. Once you get there, click Last at the top of the thread, and it'll take you to the most recent posts (including Cathy's note about her latest giveaways).

I'll be popping in this week...you should, too, so you can get the skinny of all the fun and all the goodies. And you should definitely buy BoG...Cathy does the best hunky warriors (and warrior goddesses!!!).

Okay, for all who found Sunday's nice, cool Zen place a little frosty (FYI, girls who have migraines love cold places to go for their dream getaways), I'm soooo wanting a beach trip right now, too. So, head away with me tonight for a seashore sunset...that's my yoga focus for the day...make it yours, too, and enjoy ;O)


Or maybe this'll work better for you. My fam. and I went to the county fair last night. My ten-year-old LOVED it, and of course so did I. There's something about all those lights at night, with the fair sounds ringing and singing around you and the smell of salt and vinegar fries and corndogs...Man...it gets me every time... That's another happy place I get to go to, every time I remember.

What's your favorite place? Where do you go when you need a break and you can't get away anywhere but in your mind? Who're your favorite friends you'd take with you, because you know you'd have more fun than if you went yourself????

Pop on over to Cathy's loop, and meet a few of mine ;O)

    Hey there Anna. Some great places I like to escape to are:
    Charleston, SC - My mom and I and some serious shopping and sight seeing.
    Columbia Zoo, SC - My son and I love this zoo. We could spend all day here.
    Murrells Inlet, SC - My family's beach escape. Sun, surf, minature golf, etc.
    Las Vegas, NV - My husband and I for some serious entertainment!
    And it looks like we are heading to Michigan in two weeks. Very pretty in the fall!
    Have a great day.

    I definitely want to read BOG. Catherine writes some awesome books! The cover for BOG is cool.
    Love the pictures. But you'll never see me get on a Ferris Wheel. NEVER. I'm too chicken. lol!
    If I can travel to escape I like to go to Saratoga, NY and Vegas. I so badly want to take a trip to Scotland. And a trip someplace with Dave N. would be nice. *weg*

    Any place on the water. No matter how tough my life is, I can relax and heal if I am around the ocean, lake, river or just a small stream. In my mind, I go to Jekyll Island, GA. It doesn't matter if I am alone or with a friend or Someone else. I love Cathy's books. Her Wingman Warriors are awesome. I never miss one. Have a great day everyone and Hugs.

    I'm a stay-at-home kind of person. I enjoy sitting on my back porch and watching the butterflies that come to visit my butterfly bushes. Of course, I always have a good book with me which means I'm always in the company of good friends!

    To get away in my mind I go on an island vacation where there is a beautiful beach and ocean.

    I prefer to go to the beach alone when I need to get away!

    Very true...says the girl with migraines.

    I hate the beach...I would love to go to a cabin somewhere or something.

    A friend and I like to go to Wheeling and play the slots every once in a while - it's only an hour and a half away which isn't too bad. I've only come out ahead once but it's still fun and total escapism.

    Every day though it's a good book that takes me away :)

    Definitely not the beach . . . I'm not a hot-weather girl and I suffer from cluster-type migraines. I've always wanted to go to Scotland and explore some nice, cool, drafty castles which I escape to in a book when I need to unwind and relax. I'd take my daughter with me. She would appreciate exploring a castle.

    It is my bedroom reading a good book,I don't go to a lot of places but a dream escape would be Australia.

    Anna,

    I'm glad you have had some de-stress time with your family. Our county fair just started. We will most likely take the kids this week on kid's day. I am like you, in that I love the beach. Something about the ocean has always called to me. I always feel rejuvenated after a trip to the beach for some reason.

    Hugs, Zara

    I love going to the beach. I've went one time and would love to go again. I would also love to go to Hawaii.
