Patty's Journey

Ok, so I totally stink at the whole blog thing.

Since my last post nothing really has happened other than we've rediscovered the joys of the library. And a library that is part of a co-op of other libraries so if your branch doesn't have a particular book, they can get it from another branch (or city!)

I was always one to just go buy the book and then deal with it later. Well, I've saved hundreds of dollars just by using what is available - go me! The kids are reading entire series of books and so am I :)

What have I been reading? Well, besides the Twilight series (talk about a bunch of books that have me completely suckered in!) I've been reading the Anita Blake Vampire Hunter series. I'm up to book #9 now. They are starting to get a bit old but I'll trudge through them all - all being 16 books with #17 in the works. I've caught up on the Xanth series too. Once I get finished with the Anita Blake series, I've got the Sookie Stackhouse series (8 books) waiting for me. They were purchased at the same time as Twilight because the wait at the library was "undetermined". Meaning it could be years before I got the first book. Merry Christmas to me LOL!!

My birthday came and went and the holidays just flew by. Hubby and I were both off the afternoon of Christmas Eve through Jan 6. That was a nice break. However, I'm ready for a mental health day of my own with zero interruptions to do whatever I please in peace and quiet - or the blaring of my iPod - whatever I want. Maybe it'll happen sometime. Maybe.

There are some things that I really need to get done around this house. First thing being filing/shredding. I am surrounded by paper everywhere! The second thing is to move Kate's clothes from Ian's room to her room. Maybe that will get done sometime this month.

Cross stitch - I haven't picked up a needle since April I think. I've been doing a bit of knitting but even that I haven't touched in a while. I find myself sucked into Facebook and my games there.

Well this post should keep me good through March or so ;)

Have a great weekend!
