The last few days we’ve actually had a little sunshine mixed with Oregon rain. Naturally we picked one of the wettest days to move my mom. Seeing mom’s health decline has been an emotion journey the last couple of months. She is doing better now, however, has needed to move into assisted living. Physical therapy and the enticement of going to a Mariner’s baseball game have done wonders for her.  She’s now up and moving around with the aid of a walker.
                This month my brother Jack Haines published his first book, My Opic Observation, a humorous look at life.  It’s been fun having another writer in the family. Although his writing style is very different than mine we compare notes and talk about the frustration of not having enough writing time. He has always been supportive and encouraged my writing.
                My novella, Love in Bloom is part of a May Day anthology to be released next month. Sheila Roberts and Derek Harrison have known each other since childhood. Even when they met again they don’t admit they have feelings for each other until two fairies help them confess their love.
