May 2011 Books

I read 11 books this month. That's more than I've read in a long time. It's so easy to read on the Kindle. I carry it with me everywhere and read whenever I have a few minutes...

My list:
1) Sheltering Hearts - Robyn Carr (paperback)
2) A Turn in the Road - Debbie Macomber (Kindle)
3) Baby Bonanza - Maurieen Child (Kindle)
4) Eve - Iris Johansen (hardback)
5) Chasing The Night - Iris Johansen (hardback)
6) SEALed with a Kiss - Mary Daughtridge (Kindle)
7) Stuck in the Middle - Virginia Smith (Kindle)
8) Between a Heart & a Rock Place - Pat Benatar (hardback)
9) Age Before Beauty - Virginia Smith (Kindle)
10) Third Time's a Charm - Virginia Smith (Kindle)
11) Night Road - Kristin Hannah (Kindle)

Carr, Macomber, Johansen and Hannah are some of my favorite authors. I should have read Chasing the Night before Eve, as these are Johansen's Eve Duncan books that I read out of order, but it didn't hurt either story. Night Road is one of Hannah's finest books, but it is a tough read emotionally. It's about teenage boy/girl twins and their friend who suffer through a tragedy that changes them forever. Powerful reading, and made me want to hug my kids tight! I enjoyed the Virginia Smith books too - they were a series about three sisters.

My first book for June was 10th Anniversary by James Patterson. My current read is New York Dead by Stuart Woods. I've never read any of his books, but was able to download this one fairly cheaply. I'm enjoying it so far, and may have found another author I really like. That could be expensive as he has written a LOT of books. I may have to hit up a used book store!

Isn't This Gross?

Corby lets Muffin drink out of his milk glass. Isn't that disgusting? I love animals, but I sure don't share my drinks with them. YUCK! Brandon will be home tomorrow - on his 19th birthday! His last final is at 12:30. Corby & Kaleb are headed up to help him bring his stuff home. I was planning on going, but because Hope is out on medical leave, I can't take off. That's okay - I really wasn't looking forward to carrying his stuff down 7 flights of stairs! YIPPEE - MY BABY IS COMING HOME FOR THE SUMMER! Does anyone else out there love "House Hunters" - the show on HGTV? For some reason, that show grabs me. I like to see the 3 houses the couples (sometimes singles) choose from. Of course, most of them have a lot more money than we do! Saw one last night that was a young couple in Chicago - lived in the inner city, but with 2 kids decided to move to the suburbs. Their goal was to find a house for under $1,000,000. That a million dollars folks! How can peop...

Terrible Day

I'm not going to go into a lot of detail here, but suffice it to say that I had a TERRIBLE day at work! I made a huge mistake costing the company some revenue, and I feel awful! I certainly didn't need anyone to get on my butt, because I was kicking myself for the better part of the day. I know, I know, I'm human, but this was a BIG human mistake! I hate to admit that I'm human! HATE TO MAKE MISTAKES - ESPECIALLY BIG ONES! Okay, that's it. I'm having a margarita and trying to relax now. I'm done with being human for a while!
