Happy Friday!! What are you reading?
How do you like it so far? Is it for any of the challenges?
What's happening by you weather-wise this weekend? Vortex? Snow? Rain? Sun?
Friday, December 28 2012. The day I had emergency appendix surgery in Mexico and quit smoking. Proof that everything has a good side!! DH and I are happily child-free!! No due date or toddler tickers here!!

Re: Happy Friday!! What are you reading?
I started The Winter Sea this week. I'm not too far into it but enjoying it so far. I am listening to Fangirl and should finish it early next week, I'm still loving it, but I'm ready for the end. These are numbers 9 and 10 for the year. My goal is 50.
I have The Giver on audio but having a hard time finding time to listen to it recently
I'm listening to Death Blows by D.D. Barant. It's OK. It's a second in a series. I like the MC, she's witty and funny, but the story isn't quite there. #6

Wes: 10/8/2012
I'm listening to The Splendour Falls, which is a good story. I just downloaded the audio of Outlander (I read it years ago) to start next. I'm reading Vampire Academy for my buddy read, and for a book club I'm reading Beautiful Ruins.
I'm in Minnesota - today it is getting warm, but then right back to cold. School was cancelled yesterday because of the cold - so I got a lot of reading done.

I am listening to Tell The Wolves I'm Home. I am really enjoying it.
I think we are seeing the end of the polar vortex its supposed to warm up this afternoon but we have a snow squall warning for tomorrow.
#10 for the year. Apparently my sig thinks I already finished it.
It's freezing here. 40mph winds. -25 degree wind chills. We're supposed to get snow too. Oh and a high of -2 on Monday.

about me
I'm reading More Than This by Patrick Ness. I forget who recommended this one, but thank you! I'm loving it, even though I think I'm still as confused as the MC as to what is going on. It's fascinating and I hope I get a lot of reading in this weekend.
These are numbers 6 and 7 for the year, but I have no goal in mind and am not participating in any challenges.
The weather here is FREEZING and windy and awful. It's sunny out, but being on the water, the wind is that wet cold that goes right inside you. It's awful. My skin is so dry it hurts.
Sugar & Spice
I'm reading The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien for my IRL book club. I love this book and it's a re-read so I'm trying to read it slowly so I can fall in love with it again.
I'm listening to Going Clear: Scientology, Hollywood, & The Prison of Belief by Lawrence Wright. I started it this morning but find it fascinating so far. I love studies on religion and it's affects.
They are 5 and 6 for the year.
Also, it's freezing here and I'm over it.
