IT DOESN'T TAKE MUCH TO MAKE ME HAPPY. A flickering candle, smoldering incense. Delicious food. Good wine. Honorable, passionate people. Dazzling sunsets. Enchanting moonbeams. A sensuous life. Perfect espresso to make the perfect cappuccino. For readers to love my books.

Okay, maybe I need to rephrase that opening thought. New opening thought: I AIM HIGH.

i want to be right there...


I WANT TO BE RIGHT THERE.  Stepping into that boat for one more fast go-round before it gets dark.  I have on denim shorts and a fitted Tshirt (I can't stand loose stuff).  Cute Sperry's - no socks, of course.  No makeup, just my favorite lip balm from Sally's.  Hair down, top clipped back.  I want to watch the sun sinking and feel the warm air all around me.

I want to breathe deep and smell the water and the woods and hear the sounds and know that the best of summer is yet to come...  Know that the rest of the night stretches wide before me.  He'll do the rowing.  We won't talk much.  Who would want to ruin the scenery?

Then we'll go home and he'll fire up the grill; I'll pull out the marinated stuff and we'll make dinner.  We'll eat outside as the stars come out.  Uncork a bottle or two...  The rest of the night?  Well, we'll leave that to imagination...   #ParaGoddess
