The Mystery Starts Here

Well, maybe that’s debatable. I like “The Unusual” the new quirky cop show that debuted last Wednesday on ABC, my hubby, not so much. It replaced the “Life on Mars” which I only watched because it stared Jason O’Mara – yum. The show itself was dumber than a bag of nails and that ending – oy.

But back to “The Unusuals.” I liked the quirky cast and the weirdest of the entire squad. They actually solved a few crimes (the evil cat-napper for one) and the show set us up for future surprises. I enjoyed Amber Tamlblin as the newest homicide detective who has actually been promoted to the squad as a spy. Her family is super rich and she tries constantly to hide that fact. She got the job because as the captain told her “you’ve got money, you can’t be corrupted.” And he tells her – everyone has secrets. Hmmm. 

I loved the detective (Michael from LOST) who wears his Kevlar vest 24/7 because most of the men in his family died at 48 and…he just turned 48. His partner, on the other hand, has been diagnosed with a fatal brain tumor and he seems to be invincible at this point in time.  I can’t wait for Wednesday to see what happens next.

I have been busy submitting all six of my previously published books to amazon.com for their Kindle book reader and…now they are all there and ready for purchase! I’m not sure how many people use book readers, but they are coming down in price and I see more and more people – especially travelers, using them. I figured, couldn’t hurt – might help. If you’re interested, go to www.amazon for a list of my books.

I’ve been a bit lax in writing here mainly because I have three manuscripts in varying stages of completion and have been working on them. Hey, I’ve got hungry dogs to feed you know! I’m also chef cook and bottle washer, cleaning lady, dog walker and have to give some time to my precious husband, Dennis.

We had a minor trauma a couple weeks ago. Duke the rescue dog had to have a tooth pulled! Poor guy fractured his front tooth somehow, so off to the vet’s we went. Now, we COULD have had a root canal and crown put on, but…we had the vet pull that sucker. Duke didn’t care. He was back to his bouncy, loving self within a day. We were delighted to find he gained 10 pounds in the two months hes’ been with us. He’s still pretty skinny at 87 pounds, so you can imagine what he looked like when we rescued him!

Till next time….
