Musing Mondays

When you buy books, do they immediately go onto your bookshelf to wait until you’re ready to read them (even if that means months/years from then!), or do you read them right away? What makes you do this? If you’re a ’shelver’, why do you think you don’t read the books right away? Do you ever feel guilty for letting the books sit there, unread? If you’re a ‘read-em-now’ person, why do you feel they have to be read right away? Do you give away the books when you’re done, too?

It depends…but the majority of time they go onto my bookshelf to read “later”. I am doing the same with my ereader. I buy several titles and I think I do this so when I finish my current read I have a selection to choose from depending on my mood. I will confess…there are still some on my shelves from years ago…guess I just haven’t been in the mood for those lol. Happy Reading all

Talk & Thoughts

It is still snowing here in New England…some areas with over a foot of snow and drifts even higher. I am not a snow person but today I don’t even care….my very considerate and loving hubby received a call last night that my laptop was ready and knowing the forecast for today, he went to pick it up around 10pm. Will be spending quality time today with “Lily Laptop”…named after one of my favorite flowers the Stargazer Lily. It is going to take me time to get all my settings back. And seeing that I am not computer savvy, Lily and I will be spending a lot of time over the next couple of days. Have a great Sunday and be careful on the roads for those who are getting their shopping done.

Talk & Thoughts

OK…patience is definitely wearing thin….it is noon and no call from the “Geek Squad”. I am publicly apologizing to my laptop for the names I called it when it would freeze or kick me off. LOL Please come home. I am crossing my fingers that maybe there is some hope that I will get the call before the “blizzard” predicted starts. Until then…I will be “Relaxing and Reading” in between laundry. And for those who are also in the path of this blizzard and/or on the road finishing Christmas shopping….PLEASE be careful.
Relax and Read Weekend

Talk & Thoughts

OK….I think that I have been more than patient with leaving my laptop with the “Geek Squad” last weekend and have been told that it will be ready later tonight or tomorrow, I realize I am having separation anxiety with my computer. Knowing now how important it is to me, how did we live pre internet time, that I should name my bff. So I am open to suggestions from my blogger friends what I should call/name it when I finally have it back. Here in New England, we are under a blizzard watch for this weekend (weather like what is predicted increases the pain in my back) and since my shopping is done, I plan on the usual….Relax and Read. But I also plan on spending quality time with my friend…my laptop. Tweaking my site or maybe even finding a new template for the new year. Am hoping that everyone has a great weekend…try to relax and read lol…yea…right…the weekend before Christmas and if you get a chance, help me name my laptop for it’s homecoming.

Going to continue with a holiday theme.
Any favorite holiday ornament on tree?

We have collected a dated and different Hallmark collectible ornament for every year that we have been married. My 2 favorite ones are for the years of my 2 sons’ birth. As of this year we have 28. When my boys get married I plan to start their collection.
