Happy Homes Inc.

12/3/2020

I love cats.
Their little faces and fluffy butts....Ah...they make life so much better!
In this dark crazy year, cat number 4 was a very bright spot for my family.
Happy Homes Inc
is where I adopted all 4 of my fur babies.
A nonprofit rescue looking to find forever homes for the cutest
New Jersey and New York kitties. How you mewing?
In 2018 and 2019, I volunteered with Happy Homes and even gave them a cameo in
my book, A Disconnected Christmas.
This holiday season if you are looking to spread a little holiday cheer,
Happy Homes Inc has a gofundme link for all the kitties who are in need of some necessary and life saving TLC before they are able to find their forever home.
Every bit helps!
Thank you and have Meowy Christmas!

Goodbye Facebook!

11/6/2020

I'm no good at goodbye's. But I'm also no good at Facebook.
I just sucked at it.

I was bad at posting. Bad at liking. I still don't know what a story is.

To be clear - nothing bad happened. It just never clicked with me.

So - off I go.
Adiós, arrivederci, sayonara, ciao, and
goodbye Facebook.

I have decided to update my social media with a *KISS.
(*Keep it simple sexy.)

You can find me on Instagram @RyanRingbloom

Love, Light, Hugs & Peen Wishes

10 Updates...

10/20/2020

1. I am in CRAFT mode. Woo-baby! Once that first leaf changes color, it is time to craft. Beer, wine, whiskey glasses, ornaments, candles...I'm a humor typing, personalizing fool!
2. My husband and son are still home. Serenity now. I mean, I love them dearly. But come on, this is getting crazy!!!!
3. I quit Twitter. Like almost a year ago. To my knowledge, no one noticed. hahaha. Facebook is next. By the end of the year, maybe sooner, it's gone. I was never a big fan of it but I have a small private group of awesome people that kept me on it way longer than I ever expected to be. If you are one of those awesome people, no worries. I will remain active on Instagram and share my cell # with any of you in the group who wants it. Plus, I'll still do snail mail.
4. I am up to 4 cats now. All gray. I don't know, I just love cats. But I swear that's it!!! Because cat 5 would mean an automatic divorce. hahaha
5. Writing? Yes. No. No. No. Yes. It's been hard with everyone home. But I am working on a story. Slowly.
6. I'm not sure what's worse right now, my waistline or my hair? Both horrible. But I did buy a hot wax warmer from Amazon when this all started and my brows are being kept up with. Well, sorta.
7. Shout out to TV! I have always and will always love you. Thank you for keeping me sane.
8. My eye RX changed. I've aged into progressives. Lovely.
9. I feel like I need to do 10 updates but I'm running out of things. My gyno called before, my pap was normal. See. Totally out of things.
10. I still do not have any tattoos.

Not one word...

6/21/2020

I have not written one word during quarantine. I am struggling to even write this post.
So....umm...yeah. That's all I got.

Hope everyone is safe and doing well!

Happy Release Day Kata Cuic!!

4/21/2020

Sophia Reston has never been bothered by the term band geek. The definition of geek is an enthusiast or expert in a particular field or activity. She loves marching band with all her heart, so the term is appropriate. Of course, one of the lesser known definitions of a geek is a carnival performer who is often billed as a wild man and whose act typically includes biting the head off a live chicken or snake. This definition also seems accurate since there is one snake Sophia fantasizes about maiming in the most deliciously torturous ways—her archnemesis, James Fossoway.

He has a stupid nickname, stupidly attractive muscles, a reputation for sleeping around, and he is a fellow band geek. Unfortunately for Sophia, he’s also an enthusiast of pushing all her buttons—and not in a good way.

When their rivalry leads to one final showdown during the competition for head drum major, the entire band is invested in the outcome. And James has some new tricks up his sleeve to win the last battle they’ll ever wage against each other.

Because, after years of pranks, James isn’t out for revenge. He wants Sophia’s heart.

Or maybe it's just another dumb challenge.

Congrats and Happy Release Day
to my fantastic book buddy, Kata Cuic!!!!

Keep the Beat
is smart,
it's funny,
it's silly,
it's fantastic!
Go give it a click!

***I was one of Ms. Cuic's early betas and received many texts with varying cover art throughout the process -
I was an INSTRUMENTAL part of this book .
LMAO!!!!! Totally kidding. I was just dying to use that pun.

New Covers & A Boob Reduction

4/10/2020

Same books. New covers.
And I removed Boobs from the title.

***Also - at the end of the month I will be retiring FAST, WAIT, FLAW & PANIC. I'd like to revisit them and see where it takes me.

Keeping busy!

The Cheer-Up Challenge

4/2/2020

Today was rough and I know it's just the beginning.
We're stuck inside, nowhere to go. Day after day. Going crazy.
And even though we're the LUCKY ones,
I know stress and anxiety is everywhere.
We need some cheer.
Tomorrow, I'm putting up my holiday lights.
Maybe not the snowman or the reindeer
but I am going to drag out the strings of lights from the garage
and decorate my home.
I hope it cheers up the person walking by at night who
needed to get out after a stress filled day.
Or gives the family out for a drive with nowhere to go,
something to point at and smile.
I want it to give a message of cheer, appreciation, strength, hope -
whatever is needed to help get us through this time.
Anyone want to join me?

Thank you to all the essential workers who are still going out, providing safety,
food, medical care, mail, packages, medicine, mental support and more, every day.
I am so thankful. My appreciation toward you is immense.
Sending you all love and light!
