I’m a few weeks late posting this because it’s taken me this long to download the photos off my camera.
On Saturday May 16th, I had my final spring book signing at a wonderful new family owned and operated bookstore called The Book Carriage. It’s this fabulous 2 story bookstore that just opened up in Roanoke. [...]
This Friday morning, I’ll be a proud mother at my daughter’s 1st grade awards program at school. I’m hoping I can stay for the whole event before heading to another very special event….
I will be the guest speaker at a luncheon in Arlington sponsored by the Friends of the Library. I am really looking forward [...]
I can’t believe June is almost here..let alone the official start of the Atlantic/Caribbean hurricane season.
It kicks off June first, and we are already seeing the signs that the upper level steering winds are beginning to transition across the Gulf from a cool weather season pattern to a warm season pattern. In fact, North Texas [...]
Had a blast doing a radio interview with Rebel and Heywood Friday morning on The Ranch Radio. Gave away a couple of books and had a great time chatting about weather and TV and family. You can find them on the FM dial every weekday from 7-10am.
Here I am posing with Rebel and Heywood holding [...]
I plan on using the summer to focus on finishing the second book in the Katie and the Magic Umbrella series. The first book A Stormy Adventure covered all the main aspects of a thunderstorm. Book #2 is called Katie and the Magic Umbrella: On Snowflake Trail. This one I am so excited about. It will [...]
I’ll be live on 95.9 FM-The Ranch beginning at 9:30am. My host will be Heywood.. this fabulously funny guy who is never afraid to tell it like it is.

While I’m no expert, I was flattered when Barbara Arnondin the co-founder of metroplexbaby.com asked if I would like to be featured [...]
I’m so thankful for all the calls and emails from viewers and friends since it was announced I was leaving CBS11. The past few days have been a blur.
It’s difficult leaving a career I’ve spent 20 years building…no matter what the circumstances. So I hope you’ll keep the comments coming. They soften this landing and [...]
After 7 years at KTVT-TV…it’s time to go.
I am writing this today, my last day on the air at KTVT.
There will be little fanfare on the air, and no long good-byes ….and that’s okay.
It’s bitter and it’s sweet.
Since the decision was made earlier this week, I am still pinching myself wondering if all that’s happening [...]
