#SaharasMusings – When Enough Is Too Much

I was talking with my sister the other day and she mentioned that she had to clean out her craft room as she’d bought more than she needed.  Then we laughed over the fact she probably inherited that trait from Mom as she was always over buying stuff.  Mom was a clothes horse, but after she died, we found things she’d bought for who knows what reason.  Which then made me think about myself.  Am I the same way?  Well, yes, yes, I am.  🤣😂

i'd love to hear about your stamp collection But That's None Of My Business  - Kermit Drinking Tea | Make a Meme

It started with a stamp collection back in my late teens and early twenty’s.  I just had to buy all the packets I could from Jamestown Stamp Company  Now, my dusty collection is sitting, forlorn and forgotten, on a shelf in my bedroom closet.  Is it worth any money?  Who knows. 

19 Hilarious Memes About Having "Too Many" Books

Then, it became my books.  I convinced myself it was so cool to have a library all my own.  So, I bought book after book after book.  And I read everyone.  Those books followed me around most of my life, which was a pain with the amount of times I’ve moved.  Whew.

Still, I really didn’t consider myself a compulsive or obsessive person. Then, I remembered the baseball caps I bought back in 2020 right after I had my head surgery and all my hair was shaved off.

I didn’t buy just one or two.  Oh no.  I bought a dozen.  A DOZEN.  Why?  Because of the BLING.  Now, they sit in my closet on a hanger.  Now that my hair is getting thinner, I supposed I’ll be using them again.  LOL. 

So I guess I should’ve known that when crystals got under my skin, it wouldn’t just be a few.

No, I have to have THEM ALL!

Yikes.  Not nice on my pocketbook, for sure.  (I keep telling myself it’s an investment.  LOL.) But, I do intend on selling some next year as I upgrade to better quality ones.  Yes, there is a difference and I got sucked into some sellers that didn’t have good ones.  But, you learn as you go.  🔮😍❤♥❤

He just discovered why his dad died. Now ‘tis the season for a rampage of revenge…

Beckett needs his eyes bleached. Catching his mom and his favorite podcaster doing things that will get them on Santa’s naked and naughty list is enough to turn his stomach.

Life at the Coffin Joint (Deadwood Undertaker Series Book 1) by [Ann Charles, Sam Lucky, C.S. Kunkle]

I guess I’m hooked on Ann Charles books, especially her Deadwood series. They’re quick reads, about 300 pgs but with murder mystery, romance, paranormal situations and comedy, interesting eccentric characters… they’ve got it all _ Polly Picklez

A Long Way From Ordinary (Deadwood Undertaker Series Book 2) by [Ann Charles, Sam Lucky, C.S. Kunkle]

Like Paranormal, Western, Mysteries or a mix containing all of them, you’ll like this book. Western comes first with 2 guys riding into old Deadwood circa early mining days. Supernatural strikes next with a nasty critter. Mystery unfolds as the expected person is missing. You will like this book as read alone, but you will love it if you read the series in order! Start with “Life at the Coffin Joint”, written by 2 of my favorite authors _ Morgue Rabbit

Can't Ride Around It (Deadwood Undertaker Series Book 3) by [Ann Charles, Sam Lucky]

Pre-Order: Exposed (Circle of the Red Lily Book 1) by Anna J. Stewart

Hollywood secrets. Deadly reveals. The newest thriller by USA TODAY bestseller  Anna J Stewart

Set for release this November and published by CAEZIK Romance, an imprint of Arc Manor Books!

“Atmospheric, vivid and intense, this is modern romantic noir at its best.” ~NYTimes Bestselling author Jayne Ann Krentz 

Working as a Hollywood photographer means Riley Temple has seen it all. But then she finds herself staring at the chilling image of a dead woman. When her questions about the film lead to violence, she reluctantly turns to the only person who can help. Detective Quinn Burton, the police commissioner’s son. Her history with the LAPD is complicated, her trust in authority, tenuous. But to find those responsible and protect those closest to her, she’s willing to do anything. Even trust a cop.

After more than a decade on the job, Quinn knows a dangerous situation when he sees it and Riley Temple is up to her ears in trouble. But not for the reason she thinks. The pictures she’s stumbled on call into a question a notorious murder conviction—one that powerful people have a vested interest in keeping in place. Seeing this case through means betraying someone: his job, his family, or the woman he’s falling in love with.

As old secrets are revealed, Quinn and Riley find themselves targeted by members of a secret society that has long maintained violent control over Hollywood’s powerful elite. A society that, until now, has remained hidden in the shadows. A society that will stop at nothing to keep their secrets buried.

“… a page-turner with images that will linger long after you finish the book.” ~Academy Award Nominated Actress & Author Meg Tilly

Featured Book: Briarwitch Academy 1: A Whisper Before Dawn by KC Kingmaker 

I don’t look for trouble. It finds me: murderous teachers, sexy supernaturals, devious plots.

My name is Dawn Rose. I was the food-scavenger for my group of outcasts in the Fringe—what used to be LA County before the Abnorms and supernaturals turned it into a hellscape. But I never expected to witness a brutal murder-by-magic.

Now I’ve been whisked off to Briarwitch Academy, the place where magic goes to grow. The faculty think I have an ancient untapped power. Yeah, right. Like I’m going to fit in with drunken gnomes and goth pixies. And then there are the smoldering shifter dudes. One of them basically stalks me. The other hates me. I want them both.

I’m just trying to survive the bullies and my classes and the magical weirdos who don’t think I belong here. But when evil threatens the academy, I have to stop it from reaching back home. And that whole murder thing? I know who did it. And he knows I know. And life’s about to get way more complicated…
