Lisa gave me some irises last fall and it took me forever to plant them, so I was totally amazed when one of them decided to bloom.

Purple irises are my favorite flower (pansies are my second).

I'm working on my next book, Coroner's Inquest cases of Pima County. I've typed so much my shoulder and arm are sore. OUCH.

Someone is using my picture on a straight dating website and two angry women sent me emails. I have a suspicion that the dreadful fake blogger may be bored and trying to create problems.

I'm sitting here sipping a margarita and I made it too strong!
