or a rainy day curled up with a book, or a cold wintry day,stuck inside with a book!I have 2 "bins" at home with about 60 books all waiting to be read!I am always on the hunt for a new author or new book to enjoy!
I love summer beach reads. I... more »

    That is so cool, I bet you will make 50! I have been working on my book, doing lots and lots of crafts for gifts and for my Etsy on-line shop and I have 3 blogs! But I am alone a lot with my husband's illness as he has to nap a lot. So I keep busy with all of this. I appreciate our friendship, we have been having fun with the family tree, haven't we? Kerrie

    Hi Laurie,

    I am so behind on almost everything.... Took a trip to Va. w/ my little Julia.(9 years old) It was wonderful. When we arrived back, her mother and other granddaughter were down with the swine flu. Both are fine now but I kept Julia with me until they were better. My hubby had to sleep in the guest bedroom because Julia had to sleep with Nonna.....He missed his bed and did not sleep well.

    Took my Kindle on the plane and finished one book. I am reading so many different books at one time. I must concentrate on one - I have too many new books arriving. Also behind on my movies.

    We just got back from the Farmers Market and bought all our organic veggies.
    Then went to the grocery store. Finished putting everything away, now I am going to sit in front of the TV and watch movies...

    Of course I added more books from your shelf. Thank you for thinking of me.
    I will keep in touch, I promise.

    Ciao, Carol

    I just wanted to check in with you and say hello! I am 3/4's of the way through "Perfection - a Memoir of Betrayal and Renewal" - I am in love with the way this author writes - but the book goes on and on and on. I am ready to finish it.

    Hi Laurie .
    How are you? Wow! you really found one of your cousins from Sicily? that's unbelievable! how did you manage to do that? do you have some sort of a family tree? that's great anyway!
    I'm expecting a very cold winter , too . but the past couple of weeks have been just fine . even warm a bit!
    thanks for the E-mail . I'm sure you can finish your 50 books if you want ( even if you couldn't 40 would've been a good improvement...) .
    best of luck!

    Thank you - I have a picture of all those bouquets my kids send to me. This one just happed to be a pic I've used on Facebook and my daughter wanted me to change the Shelfari avatar; she hated that picture!!! I'd taken it of myself, and they don't always come out well. It didn't, apparently. LOL

    I'd be interested in what you thought of Time and Again. Read the 2nd book, From Time to Time.

    Take Care!

    LOL - I could bathe in chocolate! I will check out the books you listed! I am reading "Poseidon's Steed --- The Story of Seahorses, from Myth to Reality" by Helen Scales PHD - it's such a good book -- not exactly what I would normally choose which may be why I am enjoying it. I like seahorses :-)

    Laurie, just added Heart Stones to my shelf. I collect them, too. How are your letters from Italy going? I wrote on the comment with the stone book that I thought you should write a book, "Letters from Italy", wouldn't that be great? Hope you are doing great, Kerrie

    You have a lot of great books, so I thought you would be a good person to have as a contact to ask something.
