Something you should know.


When I started this blog I had every intention of not using any real names in the blog, but seeing as I have already broken that promise I might as well make some corrections.

My husbands name is not Mark it is actually Chris. My kids are actually Ally and Aidan. ( Sally and Ben clever huh? Okay so not really.) While Candeh is not the name most call me I do use it with certain people. My real name is Candace although most people call me Nikki for my middle name Nicole.

But sense we are used to Candeh that is how we are going to keep it. Everything has been the truth just the names were changed except for the recent mentions of Eddie and Debbie those were their real names.

There is one more thing I want to mention. Eddie had no life insurance and he was the bread winner for the family. So donations are being taken up to help with the expenses of burying him and if anyone would like to help even if it is only a dollar, every little bit helps. Your donations can be mailed to

Okay so now that we have all that out of the way. I read one of my books last night. It was titled You've been Warned. By James Patterson & Howard Roughan. It liked it very much another thrilling tale from JP.

The story is of a young woman twenty six years old named Kristin Burns. Kristin is a Photographer waiting to be discovered and in her mean time a baby sitter for a very wealthy New York family. She cares for two children a five year old boy Sean and an older girl Sibling Dakota.

She has been with the family for two years and loves the children dearly. But the mother who isn't the biological mother is a bitch to say the least. Snobby, rich, skinny and mean as a snake. But Kristin has found comfort in her affair with the Wicked Witches husband Micheal. Things seem to be going okay for Kristin until things start happening that she doesn't understand.

She witnesses an event at a Hotel that has obvious meaning to her that to the rest of the world hasn't yet occurred. She starts to meet people from her past and people she had never met only to find out some of them were deceased. Things seems to spiral out of control and it seems there is nothing she can do about it.

The tale of Kristin and her forbidden love and the warnings of the deceased and living kept me glued into the book all night and I couldn't stop reading until it was finished. So if you need a good book to stimulate your mind and get your imagination flowing this thriller is definitely what you need. You've been Warned.

Tonight I hope to start and finish another book by James Patterson & Howard Roughan titled SAIL Hopefully I will be able to let you know in the morning how it is. Well for now I am off for a rest from the computer screen. Toodles!

Thank you Eddie.

This one isn't going to be very long but I just had a crazy dream during a nap yet it was comforting and I needed to share it with someone so guess what you guys are it!

So we are at work at the shop and the whole gang is there including Eddie. We are getting ready to leave for the night and I wrap my arms around Eddie and give him the biggest hug ever. He giggled in that silly way he did and said " What's that for?" and then I told him "It's because I know this is a dream and when I wake up you will be dead again." and he replied just as cool as cucumber " I know Hun."

It was so real I could feel him I could smell his cologne he always wore. Every mole on his face was accounted for, it was so damn real. As I held on tight I told him that we all missed the hell out of him and that we loved him. He smiled at me and hugged me back and said it's okay I am okay.

Then it was like the dream changed like it fast forwarded and no one could see him but me. Big Debbie( Note this woman is skinny as a rail but we have two ladies named Debbie and she is taller so we call her big Deb.) is talking about how Eddie would love a pretty night like this with the stars out and the crickets chirping. I can still see him and hear him but they couldn't. He smiled at me one last time and gave me one of those winks and I started to hear music.

About 20 seconds later I realized it was my phone and I was now waking up. Now all I really wanna do is go back to sleep so I can ask him all the things I wanted to. But I know that the dream will probably go the same way if I have it again. No questions just hugs and tears.

I am not sure if it makes me superstitious but I choose to believe he was there, he was there to let me know he is okay and we can stop hurting for him. I choose to believe that it was his way of saying things are going to be alright. And you know what next time I see him in my dreams I owe him a big Thank you.
