I may be AWOL for a bit. I finally got "the book"... you know the one. It arrived on Thursday (or at least that is when the husband brought it home from work) and I am having a hard time doing anything but reading. Example.... Friday we were having poker night at my house with about 10 other people... house needed some serious cleaning thanks to the men that finally came to install a new washing machine late thursday night (therefore leaving a very big mess). So here is how it went. I swept and mopped the kitchen, read a chapter. Swept and mopped the living room, read a chapter or two. Swept and mopped the... uh.... other living room (I am not sure what to call that room). Read another chapter or two. This is how it went all day. It took me twice as long to clean and I literally had to drag myself away from the book to shower and get ready before everyone arrived but I managed. I didn't get much time to read Saturday because we had a bbq at the beach to go to but today that is about all I plan to do. So far, I am very impressed, pleased, confused, distraught by what I am reading. Strange, not at all what I expected although I am not even sure what I expected. That's all for now... back to reading!

Well good luck with the reading girl!!! I hope it turns out like you hoped...I've heard many mixed reviews - I didn't like the first one - so I didn't get SWALLOWED up in them and that is a good thing I suppose, I have enough "LIFE" to deal with I don't know how I would squeeze in a BIG book! :O) However, it would be nice too drown myself in a book, I'll have to go looking for one on the shelf today....good idea! :O)
Hey - thanks sister.... friend.... listening ear! You are so sweet! I just love you!! See why I need you home? To keep me together! Thanks for your words of wisdom, courage and strength - that means a lot to me! I don't know WHY I allow such things to get to me! I KNOW that everyone WON'T like me....but still....so many? SHEESH!! What is up with that? I just hope that IF I am ever "IN" a group - I will think of everyone and if some are left out I'm going to find out WHY and make sure that they are not left out any more! Maybe I'll make my own group of MIS-FITS!! :O) (I think that is my only hope!) Either way.... thanks for keeping me in check! I feel better today - I think a lot of my problem was TIRED and a little out of sorts because I had so much to do and not so much time to do it in.... sometimes being a single parent really gets to me! Especially when I'm NOT a single parent....I've decided my main focus will still be my family - I think I was looking for an escape every now and again....that's all...but it's all good! Today will be a better day! FAMILY FIRST! I've got you to listen to me right? YOU'RE THE BESTEST!
HAPPY READING!!!! Let me know YOUR review.... :O)
LOVE YA! OODLES!!!!
Hmmmmm,
Edward.
I need to read it again.
I am about 1/3 of the way through. I am not as hooked on this one yet as I was on the others. I haven't got to the point to where I just can't put it down. It has been different so far. Twilight is my favorite though.
