Real life stories

 Hello Hello! Welcome to the Speters show!!     So much to fill you in on my lovely readers. As you know the month of October is rapidly approaching which means a few things are happening. One thing, if you can believe it, is CARTER will be THIRTEEN YEARS OLD!! Can you believe it? I'm barely 30 and I have a teen boy. I can't believe it. Two weeks from Thursday my boy will be a teen.     For the next part of October if everything goes right I will be sending my book off to a lovely editor who will be changing my work of art. I'm beyond thrilled about the new achievement and chapter in my life. More to come on that here in the near future.      My last day at child haven here in Nevada was on September 9th. I've been pretty hush-hush about my new job. I'm an RBT ( for those who don't know that is a Registered Behavior Therapist. I'm quite thrilled about my accomplishment as I now have 38 hours a week and I got a raise so I'm making a significan...

     So as many of you know, today is the start of Football!!! Though many stadiums are not allowing fans in the seats at least you can enjoy it on TV hopefully. I don’t usually share this publicly, my team is the Miami Dolphins. JUST SO YOU KNOW I AM NOT A SPORTS PERSON BY ANY MEANS. My family asked that I chose a team and I’m obsessed with Dolphins, so there you have it. I played my sisters friend Crystal today. She is a fan of the Patriots and they owned me. 21-17... Ouch haha.      I just helped my book meetings settle on more of a limited schedule as due to Covid our numbers are dropping, though editors are super swamped because well naturally authors have quite a bit of down time right now. My editor has asked to start my work on October 15th!!! EEEKK. So I’ve started book two of my Princess of Belsaria series. I’ve also began another project with a good friend of mine. We are co-writing a werewolf series following our lead character Dahlia and her jo...

Welcome to the slacker blog, haha. I am the worst at this, but I want to do better, so here is a new post. I guess once again, I need to fill everyone in since I am such a slacker. My last post was approx. 3 ish years ago. Horrible, I know. SOOO.... here is the update.  Jeff and I got married. We tied the knot here in the beautiful Las Vegas, Nevada. Even though it was out of state, we did have a good chunk of family come down, which was super important. We were both really happy about this exciting news as we were both nervous many members of his family would not be able to make it. He surprised me during our ceremony with a wedding band, and I surprised him with a new band in his favorite color. Guys, he even danced with me! For those that don't know my husband that well.... he doesn't dance. I stressed not being able to dance with him. He sucked it up just for me! Unfortunately,  with all good things, something bad has to happen, right? Well, we haven't been able t...

Wow so much time has gone by since I have posted. I guess I kinda got so caught up in life, that I forgot what it was like to login and keep posting. So cheers to a new post and a new beginning. We are going to start fresh for a new improved me.  Sooo by now you are asking yourself what have you missed? What is new at this point. More specifically where should I begin? Well this past February I got engaged! I am engaged to a man I never thought I would be getting married to.  A little bit more about things. This particular paragraph is going to be about my new little family. See when I said yes to the love of my life, I didn't just say yes to him. I said yes to my step-daughter Tashlynn and my step-son Ashton. However in our little family we don't like to use steps. They are my son and daughter just as if they were my own, Carter even calls them his brother and sister. He is very excited to have them in his life.  Now moving on to another topic: School.... Ah yes, t...

Valentines Day 2014!! A night in the house with amazing family and son!! Drinking sparkling cider, eating chocolate and watching movies. Best Valentines I could ask for :)

Gosh I hadn't realized it had been so so long since I posted on here. So much has changed for my son and I since my last post dating almost 4 years ago. Can you believe it?  I struggled so much then or at least thought that I had. Now looking back at things I realize I had more then I was willing to give myself credit for. Yes being a single parent is hard, but only has hard as you make it seem. If you cry "Poor me" all the time it kinda tends to get old for the others around you willing to help. To be quite honest that used to be me. So let me give you an insight on how things have changed for me in the last 4 years.  Carter is now 6 years old and growing into the most handsome man ever. Truthfully I never thought I could produce something so amazingly wonderful. I am now a stay at home mom spending every waking moment with my son. Didn't think that was possible did you? Well I will share with you my secret. I found a truly amazing company that allowed...

Gosh I don't even remember the last time I wrote in here. It has been ages. I guess that means I have to come up with something to talk about since this is my blog right ha ha. Well lets see where to start? Well to start off I do have my CNA now. So I am officially certified and I love it. I am still looking for jobs so guys keep your ears open for me will ya? I was so happy when I finally got it. I can't tell you how great it felt. Unfortunately I was unable to pass the test to get into Ameritech, so I won't be starting January like I had hoped. I called mom and dad crying and you know my dad gave me one of the best pep talks I ever remember having. He told me that the test does not break or make me who I am. Its just a silly stupid test. That the CNA thing was a good move for my family. It makes me proud to know that i am still doing such a good job with my family you know. Oh and mom got an accounting job, so I had to leave cashiering and I now work in the bakery as a ca...
