The problem, now I know just how much I can tackle in a day without the little box distracting me. Hhhhmmmpppphhhtttt.
Tomorrow I'm going to do a '10 on Tuesday' with some of my favorite things right now :).
Today I'll share my Christmas reading ... something I've been doing the past few years. I love a good book ...
The Christmas List, Richard Paul Evans - My first read for this month ... So, So, So, So very good. Seriously, if you can get your hands on it before Christmas get it and read it. It was a quick read too!
The Christmas Secret, Donna VanLiere - I just picked this one up today from the library and started it this afternoon. It might be my last read, but I'm hopeful I can squeeze in one more before Chrsitmas. This is the author of the well known "Christmas Shoes" story.
Christmas Jars Reunion, Jason F. Wright - I read the original Christmas Jars last year and really liked it, so this ended up on my list.
I hardly ever buy books non-fiction books as I'm not one to read a book more than one time. So I really *heart* my library and the fact that I can just put up my list of wants and wait for them to call me and let me know they are in. It's a bit of a surprise seeing which book arrived :). And now, having used this wonderful service for so long, it kills me to actually buy a book that I know I'll only read one time.
Dec 13th & 14th -

Good job! That's a lot! We're planning a super deep clean/toy purge on Saturday but I don't know if I can wait that long to get started! :)
Thanks for sharing your book! I started it last night and so far it's really good!
Well for the non-reader I am, I did get one book read (the one you gave me last year). That's pretty good for me. ;o)
It's amazing what gets done around here when the computer is off. I need to step away now and go think about what's for dinner.
