Ah, well. At least Beverly gave me some blog awards, so that's always a nice way to start off the week. (She also has a great quote on the heading of her fab blog, so check it out).
Looks like I'm supposed to tell 10 things that make me happy (other than reading, of course) and pass on the award to 10 other bloggers.
- My smokin' hot husband.
- My adorable kids.
- Black coffee.
- Running.
- James Taylor.
- My sisters and my mom.
- Knitting.
- Maeve Binchy.
- Summer.
- Writing little HTML codes that actually work. :)
And here are 10 Bloggers who also make me happy:
Annie at annieology
Wendy at Caribousmom
Andi at Estella's Revenge
Connie's Calico Drive blog. Actually all of Connie's blogs.
My big sister at There's A Cow In My Lane
Sarah at That's Bologna
Rachelle at Rants and Ramblings
Linda at Salty Feet
The Neverending Shelf. How much do I want to live in the picture on her banner?
I'm behind on my reading, so I'm still finishing up a great memoir, a novel, and a couple other books. Still plugging away at Lord of the Rings (for my kids). Am I allowed to say how bored-slash-scrambled I get trying to keep up with Tolkien's descriptions of fictional settings?
Check back in later for a How-To on Blog Button Making. It sounds so down-homesy, doesn't it? Like something Ma Ingalls would do?

I was also bored with Tolkien's descriptions. Basically the only way I finished LOTR was by skimming every time nothing was happening although I remember it not being as bad in the second and third parts. I really need to reread those though
Congratulations on your awards! :)

Well-Read Reviews
Hi! I'm wondering if you had commented over at Corra's Writing Room on Friday, March 5th? She has since shut down her blog (I know, it's only been four days) and someone named J. Kaye posted a comment. I'm trying to find her blog and am not sure if it was you!
Thank you, dahling! And now I have more new-to-me blogs to check out.
Super post and I hear you on the weekend.... uh hellllloooo? I missed it to.
Congratulations on the awards! :)
Congratulations on the awards and did you not know there is more "work" accomplished by most people on the weekend than the whole Work Week combined!!!
later for the how to make a blog button post, I am interested in this down-homesy Ma Ingalls type stuff!

Congratulations on your awards! I need to learn how to do html that works!
I am sooooo relieved to hear that you are also bored with LOTR! One of my best friends placed her entire set in my arms and said, "you MUST read these!" And I have barely been able to force my way through the first 60 pages. Thanks for the "permission" to quit and move on to something I'll actually enjoy reading! ;)
Thanks for the shout-out Miss Rachel! I love this blog, but Homegirl will always be #1.
And may I add in a totally unrelated response to an older post--I absolutely hated Mr. Darcy Takes a Wife. Ugh, I couldn't get past the first couple of chapters...so it sits...'cause I'm too embarrassed to give it away.
Thanks again sweet girl.
Thank you so much for my award - you are too sweet!
