What Makes Mary Smith Happy?


Many of you are new to my writings and such. So, I thought today I would tell you 10 things that make me super-duper happy. Not just happy ... super-duper!!

#1: Books

 

There's nothing better than getting lost in a good book!

#2: My CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS!


Come on now... are you shocked by this one?

#3: Chicago Cubs


I was a Cubs fan before it was cool! HAHA!

#4: Cooking



I fail at a lot of things I try, but the key is ... I try!

#5: My family:


Many of you might not know this, but my mother is currently battling Stage IV Head and Neck Cancer. She's my rock and best friend. She has always made me happy!

#6: Netflix



I live for my account. I have seen so many new shows and movies and I love them all!

#7: Starbucks



I'm certain I spend the majority of my income there. #truestory

#8: Kindle



When my Kindle Fire died, I ended up with an iPad (it was on sale, which is why I got it.) But the Kindle app just didn't do it justice. Therefore, I purchased a paperwhite. GREATEST DAY OF MY LIFE! I love it more than air!

#9: Social media



I know this might be a strange one, but social media has opened many doors for me in variety of ways. 1) I can keep in touch with my family across the US and The World. 2) I have interacted with people I would have never met in my life ... ever. 3) I can promote my work/writings and meet new readers and fans!

#10: Readers



Every one of you who purchase my books, read my books, and review my books make me happy every single day! I can live my dream and I thank you all for it!

#FatGirlsStory -- Where did I leave off?

So, I haven't been updating y'all on my story because 1) I've been busy 2) I've been sucking at diet and exercising 3) I don't like to keep telling everyone I'm failing. Here's what been happening. Last weigh in I was 283. Last week when I weighed in I'm now 292. Let me tell you the tears I've cried seeing that number on the scale. I hate it thinking I'm so close to 300 lbs. I know it's my own fault and I can't seem to  shoving food into my mouth. I eat when happy, sad, glad, mad, and every single moment in between. I know that I need to do something about and sitting around belly-aching about it a HUGE drag. Today, I took some type to get some recipes from Pinterest and I have some small bowls to keep back my portions in control. I have NO...I mean NO Junk Food in this house. I'm done being fat. I'm done with looking in the mirror and not liking what I'm seeing. I don't like i

Announcement of a New Series...

Since I started writing I get a crazy idea in my head and I jot it down on a post-it. (FYI: I love post-its!!!) Anyway, this one idea kept creeping up and wouldn't leave me alone. So, I brought it to my publishers attention and they agreed for me to publish it.  It's a series that deal with female issues. By that I mean, typical issues that I've lived through and others that I know.  Before I go to far in depth let me tell you about book 1. The titles will be 'different' but that is the point, right?! Book 1 will be called: I'm the Real Paige Crosby I know its a mouthful, but there is a purpose for it...promise! The series will be called: I'm Real Series .  Book 1 will deal with self-esteem issues. A small overview of the book is that Paige Crosby is overweight, and receives a big job opportunity. However, she doesn't think that she deserves it and hides in the shadows.  There is more to it, but that is just a quick note about
