This Picture is PRICELESS!


This was such a fun day. Grant and his best buddy Jay played so well together! This picture is just way too cute for words!

Book Worm


I have been such a book worm the past couple of months and I LOVE it. I have discovered that reading is a passion of mine and it helps me fall asleep. There have been days that I read for the whole 2 hours that Grant is napping and I get nothing done at all! But that is my 'me' time and I am OK with that. I have also discovered that if I go go go too much for the whole day and do not take at least 30 minutes to myself then I start to get annoyed. My reading time is when I get in bed. I also have reading times during Grant's nap or when I am putting him to bed, should the day call for more relaxed time. Whenever I some time that I don't have to be doing something, I pick up my book!

I just finished Skinny Dip, which is nothing what it would seem. It was a really good book, easy read, and a romance/comedy. I took it from my Mom who said it was a fun read. Prior to that I finished The Help, Friday Night Knitting Club, Redeeming Love, Kite Runner, and The Shack.

So my new discovery is Half.com - it is such a bargain and a half for new or used books. I just order 5 books, 4 of which are hard bound, for $25.37 - including tax and shipping. They are all gently used, but like new books. I am so happy! Here are 4 of the 5 new books that I will begin reading today!

There is something about me that wants to own all of the books that I read. I kind of see it as a collection. So that is why I like to purchase my books rather than borrow or check out from a library. Being the frugal person that I am, I love that I discovered Half.com

Need to get back to my reading...
