"No
matter how you feel, get up, get dressed up and show up" Life Lessons According to Regina
Are you a mystery fan like I am? I have a stack of books by my Night stand that will take me years to get through. But, I can't help myself--if I see an interesting mystery, I'll check it out of the library or look for it on PBS. And to make it worse--if that is possible--when I see a list like this one from Mystery Fanfare Blog I'm ready to buy them! Then there is audio at Audible
I'm a hopeless mystery fan!
