Aloha Friday (2 of 4)

Photobucket

  Friday is a busy day for memes here on my blog.  As you can see I have 3 fun memes that I participate in.  I have allowed myself to spend a little more time blog hopping and a little less time reading….shhhh don’t tell anyone especially since I am behind schedule on my reading.  But how can I pass up the chance of meeting new bloggy friends and finding more book blogs to add to my blogroll.  So with that said…let’s get started………….

  From An Island Life’s Blog: In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.
  If you’d like to participate, visit An Island Life answer the question and then post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!
  Yesterday we had our 1st thunderstorm of 2010 and it got me thinking (again..always dangerous lol) so…..
  My question is:  Are you afraid of thunderstorms?
  My answer:  No…I remember even as a child that I would love to read during a T-storm, still do.

Rules:
* Grab the book nearest you. Right now.
* Turn to page 56.
* Find the fifth sentence.
* Post that sentence (plus one or two others if you like) along with these instructions on your blog or (if you do not have your own blog) in the comments section of this blog.
*Post a link along with your post back to this blog.
* Don’t dig for your favorite book, the coolest, the most intellectual. Use the CLOSEST.

Hosted by Jennifer from CRAZY FOR BOOKS http://www.crazy-for-books.com/
Here are the instuctions from her site:

  Every day I seem to find another book blog that I start following. In the spirit of the Friday Follow, I thought it would be cool to do a Book Blog Hop to give us all bookies a chance to connect and find new blogs that we may be missing out on! It will also give blog readers a chance to find other book blogs that they may not know existed!
  So, if you’d like to participate, just repost this on your blog, sign MckLinky on her site, and check out other blogs in MckLinky! Let’s connect and make new book bloggy friends!! So, if you consider yourself a book blogger, come join the fun!
  Pretty please – Your blog should have content related to books, including, but not limited to book reviews.

My question is:

  With summer right around the corner, what are your favorite things about this season?
My favorite things are not having to wear heavy clothing, having the windows open and hearing the birds chirping early in the morning, the mini vacations we take to Cape Cod, but most of all, relaxing by or sitting in our pool with a book.
