Well since I don't really keep up with blogging very well I thought I would try something different. I think I will start blogging about books. I read enough of them, may as well share my thoughts about them, even if they don't get read, it may be fun for me. I always wanted to join a book club and this will kinda be like a one woman book club, unless you happen to have read the book I am talking about.
Anyway I would like to start with how much I love books. Not just reading, but books themselves. Their smell, their weight, their feel. Weird? I love the act of picking out a book, taking my time (hopefully) looking through shelves and shelves of books, totally judging it based on the cover and author picture. Trying to figure out which one is worth my 15-20 bucks. A hard task, since soooo many are. The purchase and finally the take home. Curling up with a good book, or sneaking to the bathroom to get a few pages in, is my favorite me time thing. I love to eat and read too! Imagining the characters, location, weather, accents...it is all so wonderful.
So the book I am currently reading is not worthy of such blogging, so my next trip to Barnes N Nobles I will pick a winner and write about it!

So Thankful
It is only Tuesday yet the work week is almost over. Yes! This is okay by me, four day weekends are always welcomed. We are headed up to my parents for Thanksgiving; we have not been up there for awhile so we are looking forward to it. O is excited to see gaga and granddad! Since I am terrible at posting thought I would do a what I am thankful for post now. So here it goes….
I am thankful for my husband who has been my solid ground these last few months. Who is the person who has to listen most to my complaints but doesn’t complain himself just does what he can to make it better.
I am thankful for my mom and dad who have been a major support system, not just now but always. Without them it would well suck really and because of that I am thankful that for now I am where I am.
I am thankful for all of my family, there are plenty of people who have nobody and I am lucky to have so many somebody’s.
It goes without saying that I am thankful for my daughter. She keeps me in line and is truly a blessing.
I am thankful for friendship and the kind of laughter that makes you cry and want to pee your pants.
I am thankful for those who show me that humanity may stand a chance.
I am thankful for good days and when there are bad days that are physical I am thankful for drugs.
I am thankful for cool weather and breezes.
I am thankful for coffee and chocolate.
Really the list could go on and on but I will end it there!!
So here’s wishing everyone a Happy and Safe Thanksgiving!

Finally
Well another week has ended and I am just amazed at how quickly the week, month, and year has gone. It will be Christmas and the new year before I know it.
I have not posted in awhile although I have had a few things that I could have posted about.
Dan and I had a wonderful weekend at the Westin (anyone needing a nice get-a-way I would recommend the Westin) so big thanks to my folks! Actually that probably was the only good post. I have not been feeling very well and was in bad shape last week. This week has been good though so lets hope it lasts!!
So now I will do the fill-ins and than get back to work.
1. We need to appreciate all the we have and not worry with what we dont.
2.O gave me a big hug and said I wuv you mommy and it made me smile.
3. If you want it you have to work for it and get it.
.4. I am happy today because I feel good and I have to take it one day at a time!
5. Massachusetts has a proposed 5% sales tax on elective cosmetic surgery; I think that there are alot better things to think about and I dont really care.
6. Family of course makes for a happy holiday.
7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to hanging out tomorrow my plans include oh I am sure a trip to the Merry Go Round or the Jump Zone Sunday, I want to maybe go out for breakfast and laze around!
Happy Friday Folks!!

Today I turn 30. I have spent the last week or so trying to figure out if this bothers me or not, I have deceided that, no I guess it doesn't. There are a few positive things about it, when I get on the treadmill, I dont have to arrow down as long to get to my age, it is faster to say 30 than 29 (try it, its true) and well I am still here period.
It has been a nice birthday thus far (besides being in pain due to the crappy weather) my cube was decorated, I got nice cards and we are having lunch at the office.
Saturday we will have a family get to-gether.
So Happy Birthday to Me.

Monday Again
The weekend is over and Monday is here again. So far so good.
The weekend was a good one. Friday and Saturday were good family days and we had alot of fun. Although Saturday was a bit chilly we did go the Merry Go Round, had 3 rides and than went to Barnes N Nobles.
Sunday was a day I was both looking forward to and dreading at the same time. Excited because I was going to a good friends babyshower, dreading because I had to do some driving. Let me explain, I have not driven any distance since the accident in July. In that accident I was driving my in-laws car and wrecked it a bit, I was going to be driving their car to TN, understand my nerves? The plan was I was going to drive to TN and my father (shower was co-ed) was going to drive us to Murfreesboro.
Well I could not have asked for a better driving day. It was clear and bright and the traffic was light. I had the entertainment of Simon and Garfunkel and I un-nerved a bit. Although when I got to my folks my legs were shaking badly. But I made it!
We headed to the shower and it was fun. I have never seen someone get as much stuff as they did. That kid will be set until she is a year at least....We were there for about 2 hours and they opened gifts the entire time!! Good for them!!
Than came the trip back to AL. Well I had the whole day to get re-terrified. It was a bit busier and there were lots of big trucks and it was getting dark. Lets just say when I delivered the car back I was telling myself I was never going to drive again. But I will....although I hate driving now and I do not really enjoy being a passanger either. Hopefully I will get over this soon.
All in all the weekend was great and hopefully the week will follow suite!!
