June 14, 2022 Oops! Where has June gone? Well, the family has planted a garden. Other family has come from another state to visit. Still other family has some exciting job changes coming on. DH had his 81st birthday! In a year that has been a time of recalibration. We’re just all grateful for EVERYTHING!… Continue reading Turnin’ Pages — Cardinal Bluff — June, 2022

Turnin’ Pages — Cardinal Bluff Diary — May 2022
May 7, 2022 Mother’s Day is early this year. And we have a Cinco De Mayo birthday among the grandkids — a Sweet Sixteen. May is an easy month for family birthdays. We have SIX in April! I have good memories of honoring mothers at our church as a child. There were some spinster teachers… Continue reading Turnin’ Pages — Cardinal Bluff Diary — May 2022
Turnin’ Pages — Cardinal Bluff Diary — April, 2022
April 10, 2022 Well, so much for a diary! My favorite authors are releasing books at warp speed! I’m reading a lot. I’m working on side projects to bring more to you. But we are here and that is an accomplishment. Spring is bringing longer days. I kind of like that. We have leaped forward… Continue reading Turnin’ Pages — Cardinal Bluff Diary — April, 2022
Turnin’ Pages – Cardinal Bluff Diary – March, 2022
March 21, 2022 The diaries at my blogs have been neglected for ONE WHOLE year! Appalling, but we’re back and going strong. Reading some really good books this month.

Turnin’ Pages — Cardinal Bluff Diary – March 2021
The Muse is Marching! March 02/2021 – March has come to my keyboard. Imitating the weather this week, the first day of March was gentle, but not much action. The winter of 2020/2021 has been a writing dud for me! How about you? This condition isn’t writer’s block. The days were more like “What’s writing?”… Continue reading Turnin’ Pages — Cardinal Bluff Diary – March 2021
Turnin’ Pages – Cardinal Bluff Diary – September, 2020
September 1, 2020 With all of the moving plans, July and August were not newsworthy! Hot, with packing and more packing! Some stuff has moved to the new location while other stuff waits in boxes. We’re not the sort of people who can disappear in the night. I’m not a professional collector, but I qualify… Continue reading Turnin’ Pages – Cardinal Bluff Diary – September, 2020
Turnin’ Pages — Cardinal Bluff Diary — June, 2020
The Cardinals are packed and ready to head west! I’m not sure that there will be any real, singing red birds at the new place. Most of my beloved things are packed. I miss them. The bare essentials do take care of me, but there are days. Especially the times when I’m looking for ‘just… Continue reading Turnin’ Pages — Cardinal Bluff Diary — June, 2020
Turnin’ Pages — Cardinal Bluff Diary — May 2020
Tomorrow, May 2020 will be here. April 2020 was either the month that seemed to last for YEARS or the month that didn’t happen. I’m looking forward to getting a new flow of reviews and additional features active on Cardinal Bluff! Sheltering-in-Place was made infinitely easier by a generous offer from Linda Stirling of The… Continue reading Turnin’ Pages — Cardinal Bluff Diary — May 2020
Turnin’ Pages — Cardinal Bluff Diary — April 2020
April, 2020 got away from us! All over the world, the Covid19 Pandemic with precautions kept people in ‘Shelter-in-Place’ mode. I hope there were many, many readers out there making connections with their favorite authors. Plus, learning about new authors. We’re still vigorously preparing for a major cross country move. That ‘busy work’ kept us… Continue reading Turnin’ Pages — Cardinal Bluff Diary — April 2020
Wholesome Romance — Two New Novels Coming — Lin Stepp, Author
Wholesome romance author, Lin Stepp, sent copies of her April 2020 releases for me to read and review. (And keep in my library!) Without a doubt, reading and reviewing Lin’s books are a pleasure for me because the gentle contemporary, Christian plots give me so much. There is geographic and scenic description, often featuring the… Continue reading Wholesome Romance — Two New Novels Coming — Lin Stepp, Author
