Hi All! Francesca Hawley here and I’m pleased to tell you all that I FOUND a place to live and I start my new job TODAY! I’m thrilled and excited but nervous as can be. It’s a good kind of nervous though. The kind where new horizons are opening and the possibilities are endless.
The move was every kind of crazy. From last minute decisions, to packing the night before, to getting a late start and the entire time schedule for the day being shot. It took way longer to load. One of my friends who was going to help with the driving got evil sick the morning of the move. So my friend, Annie drove the truck and I drove her vehicle. Then I rode BACK to the old place after we finished unloading (after 8 at night) and I picked up my car and drove back. I finally got back home at about 5 am.
My cats who had remained at the new place were happy to see me and I fell into bed but had trouble falling asleep. Really. That was Saturday and today. Today after I woke up, I spent the day unpacking and rearranging. But, I’m here. I’m happy. And I’m feeling hopeful.
I’m grateful for the friends that helped with the packing – Robin, Denise, Vicki, and Annie – and to those that helped me on moving day – Annie, my new boss Amy and her family who came over to help unload, as well as new neighbor Dale, Todd and his wife and my landlord who helped line up moving help.
All in all, it was a good experience that has made me stronger and I’m grateful for the friends and potential new friends I’ve met.
Oh – before I forget – and HOW could I forget – I have a new shapeshifter erotic romance from EC coming out on Feb 22 called Cupid Rocks. No cover art yet, but I’m excited about this book too. Here’s the blurb!
When her parents’ rock band The Pack performs at Zach’s bar, Mandy discovers her True Mate, Joe Blackwolf, the band’s lead singer and guitarist. All she has to do now is convince Joe that she told a little white lie to make her mom happy, her father that rock musicians aren’t all alike, and her new mate’s family that rockers aren’t all that different from classical musicians.
Joe Blackwolf is celebrating his fortieth birthday. And what he wishes for when he blows out the candles is to find his True Mate. He succeeds when he meets Mandy Goldwolf. Problem is…she belongs to 
someone else. Finding out the truth leaves him free to explore every inch of her smokin’ hot curves, but now Joe and Mandy are neck deep in overbearing relatives and everyone is in for a rockin’ Valentine’s Day.

Moving can be very exciting & a tad scary too. It sounds like you had a lot of help, so that’s great.
Sounds like you are getting settled in your new life. Help from friends goes a long way, doesn’t it?
And on top of everything, you have a new book coming out?! Wow! It sounds like a fun one, too! Congrats.
And good luck with everything: new house, new job…etc.
So glad the move worked out for you in spite of last minute problems! Murphy’s Law loves to kick in, doesn’t it?
Glad you had help for a big project, and I hope you & the kitties thrive in your new place.
