Week 1 (Halloween Book 1)

Hey everyone,

Back in my goals I told everyone,
"I still however plan on reading at least one Halloween book every week in the month of October."

This week I am going to read "The Halloween Tree" by Ray Bradbury.  Which you can buy off of Amazon on sale right now.  I got my paperback copy(prime) for $4.55.

I choose this book from the Best Halloween Books off Goodreads.  It was the very first book on the list.  Since I enjoy this list so much I will probably be getting all my Halloween Titles I read this month from this, unless another catches my attention.

Some of my books will probably be kid books while other ones will be adult.  If you really want to know which is which you will have to look up online because either is fine me.  I do believe I have seen this movie, just never read the book so I am looking forward to it.

I have already choose the book I am going to read after this one, which will be Neil Gaiman's "The Graveyard Book," which can also be purchased off Amazon cheaply.  I just got my paperback copy for $8.19 after tax.




Now for the fun.

Book One, Week One, "The Halloween Tree," by Ray Bradbury.  Begin:October 5, 2016

Goals for October 2016

Hey everyone,

I know I am a little bit late on here but I do plan on posting more this month than I did last month.  Last month I kind of edged off, no excuse really other then I did.  This month however, plan to get a little bit more finished.

Firstly, well come up with some goals.  Goals are good :)

Goal 1: Begin a new Bible Study:
And I do plan on beginning one this month.  I decided to follow Time Warp Wife(30 Days of Gratitude) beginning on October 17 and running through Novemeber 12.  So if you would like to also follow alone with the Bible Study you have sometime to look at the resources on her page.  She is fantastic at online group studies and would definitely recommend it. 

Goal 2: Read a new book every week
I did finish Suzanne Collin's last book "Mockingjay" the other day, making me finished with this series.    

"The Hunger Games"
Began: September 9, 2016

Finish: September 15, 2016

"Catching Fire,"
Began: September 19, 2016
Finished September 24, 2016

"Mockingjay"
Began: September 26, 2016
Finished:October 3, 2016

I still however plan on reading at least one Halloween book every week in the month of October (which I will give you details in another entry). 

Goal 3: 
Write a short story every week for submission (will not be posted online). 

Goal 4:
Learn something new. 

Goal 5: 
Go somewhere new.  (Already did this, will post about later). 

Goal 6: 
Carve a pumpkin :) who wouldn't make this a goal for October.

This is all the goals I can think of right now for October for the moment if I come up with anymore I will make sure to post them.

Overview Of September 2016

Hey everyone,

Here is a final update of September goals.  Even though it looks almost the same as the one before if you keep reading on you will see it is a different update I just left the book picture of "Me before You," and basic outline structure the same.

Here it is though,
September 2016 final update.

Goal 1: Start a Bible Study

I did indeed Finish a fantastic Bible Study called A Virtuous Life and is by Time Warp Wife.  If you haven't heard of her you should most certainly check out her blog which has many Bible Study's and free resources alone with some really neat things she has to offer on Amazon.

Being accountable and pursuing everyday even on the nights I feel like I didn't have time and the times I wanted to do something else I feel in the end the time I spent on my relationship with Jesus was exactly what I wanted to do despite my excuses.  This was a very nice Bible Study to begin digging deeper into the word of God.  I enjoyed it. 

Goal 2: Finish a book.  

Technically I just did this very thing today(Sep 1, "Me Before You") so this goal was already finished.  

Goal 3: Finish another book.

I not only finished one more book for the month of September I finished 2 more books.  

Suzanne Collins "The Hunger Games" from her series "The Hunger Games," is just fabulous.  If I hadn't been too busy grownuping I would have been done even sooner.  Easy to read words, simple structure, well imagined plot line and keeps you wanting to read.  Began: September 9, 2016

Finish: September 15, 2016

Suzanne Collins, "Catching Fire," book 2 from "The Hunger Games" was also fabulous, simple book to pick up and read when you have a moment.  Began: September 19 Finished September 24.   

I did began Book 3 but I will put updates on it for October because I haven't completed it yet.  Confession, haven't even picked it up these last 2 days.  Not because it isn't good because I have been playing the busy card. 

Goal 4: Finish a knitting project.

I have not begun any nor have I finished any.  Even though I am keeping this as a goal I have very bad wrist and will probably not be listing this as a goal goal anymore.  Just more of a "keep in the back of my head" type goal.  I would love to show you a finished piece but my wrist are just giving too hard of a time here lately.  Maybe soon they will stop hurting so bad...hopefully. 

Goal 5: Write a short story.

I have not written any short story but I have wrote some.  Like my post, "The Mother I Want to Be (for my son Levi)."  Plus I have more things I am also working on.  I do want to write a new short story though.  I did do my one Blog, Candy Corn (How I became a Vampire), but this was meant more of a humorous short thing not really an actually short story.  All in all I would say I did not complete this goal.

Goal 6: Learn something new.

I learn a lot new in my Bible Study everyday.  No new skill yet though.  I thought about learning to crochet instead of just talk about it.   

However, I didn't learn anything really new new this month.  

Goal 7: Go somewhere new.
Unfortunately I have not got out to anywhere new yet but I will soon hopefully.  I do have somewhere nearby I want to go I have never been to before :) so hopefully soon. 

So there there is an overview of my September goals and the ones I finished and did not finish.  

Sincerely,

Possible Goals for this month update again :) 

Goal 1: Start a Bible Study

Virtuous Life by Time Warp Wife is fantastic.  I'm on week 3 now and I absolutely love it.  She's just began a new bible study too and it would be very easy for anyone to quickly jump in.  So far she's a 10 out of 10.  I recommend checking this sight out completely. 

Goal 2: Finish a book.  Technically I just did this very thing today(Sep 1) so this goal is already finished. 

Goal 3: Finish another book.

Began: September 9, 2016

Finish: September 15, 2016

Suzanne Collins "The Hunger Games" from her series "The Hunger Games," is just fabulous.  If I hadn't been too busy grownuping I would have been done even sooner.  Easy to read words, simple structure, well imagined plot line and keeps you wanting to read.  

Which is what I am going to do.  Next in line is Suzzane Coliins, "Catching Fire."  I can't wait to start it tomorrow. 

Im so glad I ordered me a cool foil box set on Amazon that was on sell.  It is paperback but they are beautiful books(pictures included).

Goal 4: Finish a knitting project.

I have not begun any nor have I finished any. 

Goal 5: Write a short story.

I have not written any short story but I have wrote some.  Like my post, "The Mother I Want to Be (for my son Levi)."  Plus I have more things I am also working on.  I do want to write a new short story though.  

Plus I did do my Halloween Story Early Blog that got way more hits then normal so I think I'm going to revise it some.  

Goal 6: Learn something new.

I learn a lot new in my Bible Study everyday.  No new skill yet though.  I thought about learning to crochet instead of just talk about it.   

Goal 7: Go somewhere new.
Unfortunately I have not got out to anywhere new yet but I will soon hopefully.  I do have somewhere nearby I want to go I have never been to before :) so hopefully soon. 

So there they are.  My September goals and where they are at one the 15?.  I still have a lot more I want to do this month and know I stay busy but hopefully soon I will get even more done.

Chat Snap 20

Hey Everyone,

Wow, it's kind of hard to believe this is only the 20th post for Chap Snap.  Many pictures later it feels like many more. 

Let's get started. 

These were fun.  I had a lot of fun with the umbrella and rain one.  Oh, and the Queen of Hearts was a bunch of fun too. I was all, "Off with her head!" 

The KFC Snap Chat made me want KFC so bad.  The duck.  I had so much fun with the duck.  I even did movies with them.  Maybe I'll show them to you sometimes.  Lots of fun. 

More duck.  I told you I had fun with the duck.  It was so ducking awesome hahaha okay I'm done😹. 

Have a great day!

Sincerely, 

Brittani Laws Writing

P.S. I just realized my auto correct has been misspelling sincerely, so if their has been any days this has happened I haven't noticed I do apologize.

*All Chat Snaps are taken with the Snap Chat App.  In which I highly recommend as a great fun app to get and interact with family and friends.

Long day

Candy Corn (How I became a Vampire)

Good Evening,

So it all started when I had to take my sister and her friend to get food one day.  I was so thirsty and needed to get water so bad so we stopped by the local gas station so I could buy me a delicious cold bottled water.  

Dehydrated and near to death while waiting in line that went on forever and never stopped I noticed the neatly stacked bags of candy corn beside the front desk.  

Rejuvenated from excitement I picked on up and sat it beside my water in my arms.  After this moment the line went very fast. 

I decided to wait to open the mouth watering candy corn until I got home and drank the bottled water while taking them to stuff their face with fast food junk.  

Finally, after much waiting I was home and opened my bad of candy corn.  There is nothing like the soft sugary goodness of biting into your first candy corn of the season. It is a savory moment.  After that, things begin to become more complicated. 

I noticed the candy was become more and more better with every bite I took.  I was sucking the life out of every peice I came across.  And that's when it happened, my destiny, right there, in front of my thirsty mouth, two perfect candy corn fangs places specially in this bag that was there for me to pick up.  I know it was no coincidence.

So I did what any normal candy corner would do, I picked up my prize and became a Candy Corn Vampire.

I had turned into the monster I knew had always been there.  There was no stopping me.  I was a beast in the night with a purpose.  To kill every candy corn in existence.  I needed more and more sugar, there was no stopping me until...

Yes, the candy corn fangs were melting and had to be destroyed.  

Sugar teethed and thirsty I drank some water and brushed the orange sugar stains from me delicate teeth, leaving only a. I've white tint with no trace of all the pure sugar lives I had taken that night.  

I learned a lesson that night.  Never underestimate the power of candy corn and what it can turn you into. 

And Happy Early Halloween :)

Sincerly,
