January books

I read 12 books in January...

 1) A Home of Her Own - Brenda Novak - Kindle
2) Stranger in Town - Brenda Novak - Kindle
3) Perfect Fit - Carly Phillips - Kindle
4) Stalked - Allison Brennan - paperback
5) Private: London - James Patterson - hardback
6) Gone Girl - Gillian Flynn - hardback
7) Sage Green - Jill Gregory - Kindle
8) Larkspur Road - Jill Gregory - hardback
9) California Sunset - Casey Dawes - Kindle
10) California Wine - Casey Dawes - Kindle
11) Purple Cow - Seth Godin - hardback
12) The Single Daddy Club: Derrick (book one) - Donna Fasano - Kindle

 Several authors new to me this month: Flynn, Gregory, Dawes, Godin and Fasano.

 Truly enjoyed both Jill Gregory books.

I had heard a lot about Gone Girl, and when I was able to get the book before Christmas for about $4 from Amazon, I went ahead and ordered it. Wow, what a story! I would highly recommend it, but be prepared for a pretty sick, twisted ride.

 Purple Cow was an interesting take on how to look for new and innovative ideas in your job.

 Since my goal is to read more books this year than last year, I'm off to a good start by reading 12 in January!

K-STATE WINS!

K-STATE beat KU! AWESOME! It was a tense game. Corby is a huge KU fan, and even having a son at K-State hasn't changed that. I am happy when any Kansas team does well; but I had to root for K-State tonight. If the Jayhawks had to lose, I'm glad it was to K-State. Michael Beasley is a great player, and my only concern is that he will leave after his freshman year and go pro. WAY TO GO CATS!

VACATION

On vacation for a few days (return to work on Thursday)...here's where I wish I was... I plan on enjoying some peace and quiet...and possibly, if I get motivated, getting some cleaning and organizing done in the office area of the basement. We'll see if that motivation arrives (it's not here yet)... Good news for Park City residents...recycling came to town the first of January. We are charged $4.00 month (added onto our already high water bill); but it has lowered the price of our trash pickup. The company P.C. contracted with has a much lower price than the company we use. Our company matched the price, so our trash bills went down (considerably) AND we get to recycle. We can recycle almost all our plastics, newspapers, cardboard, aluminum cans, cereal boxes, glass, motor oil, etc. We've got two big bags to set out tomorrow. Just doin' our part for the environment. We are without hot water right now...our hot water heater needs a new thermo-couple? It's a fair
