storms!

we are only in february (granted, it is the end of the month), and this is the second storm system to come through this year and have tornadoes/the potential for tornadoes...

crazy weather!! where i live is under a tornado watch until 4 AM -- i am just hoping to get some sleep since i am a storm worrier...

stay safe to my local peeps -- and please pray for safety for the area!

sorry!

i have been a bad blogger this week...the blogging mojo has taken a hiatus...i would love to post more, but i am not sure what to say...

today was a cropping day, so i am happy about that...i finished cards for a swap, saw a bunch of friends, bought the new basic grey, and finished some pages, too...

and meghan started reading harry potter so i am super happy about that!

not much else happening -- lots of job searching...

library

I returned a bag of books & CDs tonight...

I have 2 books currently checked out (they are on their 2nd renewal)...finally i am going to read Behemoth and Keeper of the Grail...

i have 7 items requested...
* 2 CDs (gLee volume 3 & volume 4)
* 2 DVDs (Social Network & Secretariat)
* 2 books that come out in April or May
* 1 book that is currently out

2 items are "in transit" to my library -- the book that is in & one of the CDs...I am hoping to get at least one of the books finished that I have had for about a month now before these make it to my library -- save myself a trip!!

happy reading :)

Gone

so i started with the book "Gone" by michael grant -- an interesting story reminiscent of "Lord of the Flies"...but with more fantasy involved (think super powers)...it took me awhile to get into the story, but once i was in, i was stuck! i had to finish to find out what happened...

then i learned there was a second book (which i do not like to learn once i have started since i have to finish a series once i start it!)..."Hunger" is another novel set in the FAYZ with the same characters facing some different problems in their new reality...so i checked this one out from the library as well...finished it tonight -- good conflict, some parts were slower than others, but an overall good book...

so i head to amazon to link to the books, and see there are TWO more!! one came out last spring ("Lies") and another, "Plague," comes out in a little over a month! i have requested both at the library, so maybe then i will be able to finish this series!! since the story can be slow at times (for me), i am hoping the series is over...i am having trouble imagining what else could happen in the FAYZ, but i am sure michael grant has come up with some great stories to add to the tale!!

yawn!!!

so tired...and i have been getting sleep this weekend!! i think it is the change in weather (75* today...forecast of 40* then dropping tomorrow)...

tomorrow is a nice day with no work -- happy presidents' day all!! -- i am going to swap mad science kits & then go to lunch (barb and/or meghan may be joining me)...not sure what else may happen, but i am hoping to clean out my car a little...and finish up some cleaning that started today...we will see!!

have a lovely monday -- whether you have to work or not!!

toodles :)
