I Love Fall

For one simple reason...I love coats. And this year I will be adding this lovely to my collection. It's a Belted Military Coat from Alloy. It was love at first sight...and will be in my closet next month.


On another note I am going to the bookstore in a little while to pick up this new book. I have heard really good things about it and the reviews are wonderful. It's about a woman named Mia whose boyfriend deploys to Iraq for a year. And all the crazy crap she deals with while he is gone. The author wrote it a year after her husband returned from deployment...so needless to say it is semi-autobiographical.



I hope everyone has a good Labor Day weekend! Can't wait to read all about them come Tuesday!

Holy Cows!

I love the rain. Little A loves the rain. Hubs loves the rain. I hate cows who smell really bad when it rains. Lately it has been raining every morning in this tiny little Podunk town we live in. It's wonderful really, until you have to walk outside. The smell of wet cow is something no one should ever have to experience more than once in there lives. Yet I have had to smell it every morning for the last 2 weeks. I'd love nothing more than to go Febreeze their asses.

OK...other than that little rant I started and finished Nights In Rodanthe yesterday. Cried just a little, but over all I really liked it. Hubs actually laughed at me because I was finishing up my book while cooking dinner last night. He walked into the kitchen to find me sitting on the counter with my feet against the wall, crying, an stirring the pasta. He looked, laughed, and walked away. He's a smart man for turning around.

Is it weird that Little A will lay on the couch with me all day and listen to me read one of my books but she can't sit through one of her five page cardboard books? She's a goofy kid I tell you.

Oh well, I need to go pick out another book to read today.

The Lost Romantic

I am possibly the least romantic person you will ever meet. It works out well because Hubs comes in a pretty close second. The thought of a candle lit dinner and a nice walk on the beach makes me want to gouge my eyes out with a spoon. Yes it's that bad! I also hate love story type movies.

But with that being said I LOVE LOVE LOVE a good romance novel. They suck me in and it's a horrible feeling I tell you!! (It really gives me a good laugh too.) I am actually getting ready to sit down and read "Nights in Rodanthe" by Nicholas Sparks. I have heard the book is better than the movie and since I refuse to put myself through the nightmare of actually watching it I shouldn't have a problem!!

Books still sitting on my shelf to read: The Notebook (and again, I haven't seen the movie), A Walk To Remember (again haven't seen the movie), and Last Kiss. I should have most of them done by the end of the week.

Anybody have any other good books to read?

Bookworm

I am. I love reading. And right now I am reading

It is amazing! If you haven't read the book..go read it...NOW.

Yes I know it is a movie too and it is so much easier to just go watch the movie...but the book is so worth the time!
