More Than A Song

It has felt like summer for several weeks now here where I live but it officially starts tomorrow! Which means today marks the end of Katrina’s Spring Reading challenge, and time for a wrap up post. One thing I was not very good about doing this time were reviews; I love to read and peruse […]

I’ve found another reading challenge I’m going to do, Lynne is hosting and calling it I Heard it Through the Grapevine. This one will be easy enough to handle I think, 3 books between May and the end of November that have been recommended in some way. Where do you find new books to read? […]

And if free music isn’t enough, Sonya is giving away a book! Check it out here and sign up. It looks like a fun read!

It’s time once again for Katrina’s Spring Reading Challenge. I always enjoy participating in this one and can usually find so many ideas from other people for new books to read! Last year I kept seeing Wish You Well by David Baldacci on lists so I decided to read that one; it ended up being […]

I wasn’t happy with that picture that I posted this morning, of the big stack of books. I’ve been using Gimp on my desktop to size pictures, Stacy brought a disc and installed it a few years ago. Now I also have this laptop I’m using and I like the way it transfers pictures way […]

I must have thought my church library and town library were going to run out of books, because I brought home a big stack from Stacy’s house! There’s just something wrong with that, a sickness maybe! But she’s read them and they were just sitting there so I brought them home and will work on […]

I’m a bit late doing my wrap up post for the reading challenge I was doing this fall! Katrina hosted the challenge and the other wrap up posts and info are here. There were lots of participants this time. I really enjoy being a part of this one; this time I had what I thought […]

Mostly we get bills or junk mail but last week I got real mail! These came for me last week….. I won the Amy Grant book maybe a month or so ago and had almost forgotten about it (from so many books blog) The other one was one of Katrina’s book give aways. (It’s signed […]

I’ve noticed over the last year and a half that when Kathryn or Jeremy read books to Katelyn, they read aloud whatever is on the cover and title page before starting the book. So if they’re reading Pajama Time, along with reading that title they’ll also say, by Sandra Boynton, Workman Publishing. Or Goodnight Moon […]

I participated in this challenge last year and thoroughly enjoyed it, not only the reading but seeing all the different reading lists by the participants! If you aren’t familiar with it and want to check it out, stop by Katrina’s place and get all the info in this post. You can see all the other […]

I finished reading a book recently that was by an author that’s new to me……Wish You Well by David Baldacci. I think the book isn’t new, it’s been out a while and I’m probably the last person around to have read it. I believe he normally writes thrillers or legal thrillers so I may not […]

And because I don’t want to end the day with a sad book excerpt, like I put in the post below………..I give you another one that I had copied and kept! It’s in that same pile of stuff I’m going through. This is from one of the Miss Julia books by Ann B. Ross, they […]

At the moment I’m cleaning out a pile of stuff that hubby so kindly shoved all into a closet in the room I’m sewing in! I’ve run across several things that I think I saved to blog about at one time or another and never got around to. So this is rather random……… It’s from […]

The Spring Reading Thing hosted by Katrina ended this week and it’s time to do a brief recap of it. I kept my list shorter this time, only had 5 books on it and my original list is in this post. I also did a couple of reviews for them along the way, here and […]

Got tagged for a couple of things recently and just have not gotten around to doing them so I’m trying to play catch up today. Southern Girl tagged me for a Page 12 meme. Here’s how it goes: 1. Pick up a book that is near to you 2. Go to page twelve in the […]
