Sharing, is it caring?

nobody@vox.com(Tracy) — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 11:49:11 -0600

Blogging for the last few months has been difficult, to say the least. I don't want to be a negative nanny so I just don't blog. I try to think of something I could blog about that would be interesting but I just can't. Things are nutso right now and hopefully they'll calm down soon. I just don't want to blog daily about things that have gone wrong ya know? So I just keep it off of here then it kinda looks like I've disappeared when I haven't. I'm just choosing not to throw it out there and have people think I'm a pessimist when I most definitely am not. In this case not sharing is caring :)

On another note I started reading again, I had about a month or 2 lag where I just didn't want to read anything. I do that sometimes but this was a tad longer than norm but onto the books!

Catching Fire (The Second Book of the Hunger Games)

Suzanne Collins

Such a great book! I can't wait til the 3rd one comes out. It left you on a cliffhanger which I figured was going to happen however I loved it. This is a series that sucks you in from the first page and just won't let you go. The characters are amazing and you can't help but love them.

Tempt Me at Twilight (Hathaways, Book 3)

Lisa Kleypas

This is the 3rd book in the series and I just skimmed it to be honest. I was still getting out of my non reading phase and I've found myself over historical romances for the time being. I think I've just read so many of them they all seem about the same now. However with that said I love this series (LOL). The Hatahaway's crack me up. They're a family that's real & you can relate with them because they're not perfect. They're not a everyone is sunshine and roses family which I love. Each one of them have their problems and they love each other unconditionally. Definitely a good series to read!

Bed of Roses (The Bride Quartet)

Nora Roberts

Ah the Bride Quartet. Nora & I have been hit and miss lately so I was hoping this book was a good as the first one and it was. Four women who are best friends started a wedding planning business and each one manages something different in the business. The first book was about Mac who is the photographer of the group. This book is about Emma who is the florist find her true love.

Hunting Ground (Alpha & Omega, Book 2)

Patricia Briggs

I accidentally read this book first & it's actually book 2 of a series. Don't you hate when you do that but it seems like any book now a days is a series & I hated it until I went back and read the first book. Ha. Shame on me. tsk tsk.

Covet (Fallen Angels, Book 1)

J.R. Ward

I'm a huge JR Ward fan, I loved the Black Dagger Brotherhood series, however this book was just too long. It felt drawn out and I couldn't get into it at all. I skimmed through it and got the gist of the book but it just didn't grab my attention :(

Cry Wolf (Alpha and Omega, Book 1)

Patricia Briggs

This is the book before Hunting Ground & I loved it! I love Patricia Briggs's ability to make the characters seem everyday and amazing at the same time. Charles and Anna are another couple who you just want to stand up and cheer for. Can I have the 3rd one yet please? Kthksbye!

Ciao!

Birthday Blessings.

Today was amazing! Tanya came over first thing this morning & she'd made me a carrot cake. Yum. Her, Dad & I then went to Jose Peppers (my favorite restaurant) to have lunch then it was off to the movies to see New Moon. We had a blast just hanging out and goofing around. They're my two favorite people in the world & they made my day amazing. Tanya got me a copy of WOZ & a candle. Then Dad got me Snow White on DVD. I couldn't have asked for a better day.

Remember when I said before that Bella gets extremely mad/fired up really quickly? Well watch the proof of this below.

leaves continue to fall

http://phototrace.blogspot.com/2009/1...

It's officially fall and I'm drinking some amazing mint cocoa. I love the fall, the leaves, the smell, the fun, but I hate the cold. It's 50* here today and burr! We had to fix the basement window from where the lightning shattered the glass. We've been lazy and ignored it, but the temperatures have made it where we needed to fix it today or else. So we went out to the local hardware store, got some glass and put it in. Unfortunately I don't know how I did it, but the glass cut the bejeebers out of my finger. It hurts, to say the least. I need to get some pictures, but the other day I forgot to take my camera with me on my walk. Figure right? I usually do that. Other than that I've just been busy planning for story times at work & working. I'm trying to catch up on my reading but I've just not been motivated to do so. I need to get busy because some of the books are coming due in a few days....Labels: daily

Bella's loving lazy Saturdays just as much as I am :) She's slowly getting bigger! She's definitely got slightly taller & a little rounder. Plus she's doing extrememly well on the potty training issues. This morning she got up out of her bed & shot into the kitchen & I was like what in the world is she doing? (Which isn't a abnormal question to be asking about her since she's absolutely bonkers sometimes) So I was keeping an eye on her and she got to the corner of the stove and turns around to look at me with a "WTF come on I gotta go" look on her face, I got up and ran to the front door where she was waiting and she zinged outside to go! I was so proud of her :) She's only 2 days short of being 10 weeks old & I'm amazed at how well she's doing.Her personality cracks me up. She's a zinger that's for sure. She romps constantly throughout the day especially in the morning and at night. Poor Beethoven is like "Leave an old man alone!" but they're getting along really well. She gets so fired up & aggravated easily so we're trying not to play with her too much because we don't want her to get mean. She loves being by someone and sleeping, which is extremely adorable.Labels: Bella, daily

Man I needed a break this week. It wasn't one thing that made me feel this way it was just anything & everything. Therefore I'm extremely thankful I have a 4 day weekend, I don't go back to work til Wednesday & I'm reveling in the fact that I can hole up until then. So far I've been enjoying my families company & catching up on some reading. There's nothing better than relaxing and knowing that there's not going to be some sort of drama around the corner. I'm enjoying it a ton, can you tell? ha!I recently downloaded Ingrid Michaelson's new cd, Everybody and I love it! Here's a song from the new album. We also got a new puppy & here's a video of her being absolutely nuts.Enjoy!Labels: daily
