Once again !!!!!
Somebody asked me today “How are you keeping your sanity with everything you are going through and all the problems that you are facing?”  My answer was genuine, truthful and simple….the world of books, blogging and the very nice people I have met via the computer.  OK…..When I created my page, which was a tiny miracle in itself, it was just going to be a way to track the books I had read.  I then challenged myself to enter a reading challenge for 2010.  Didn’t even know what a meme was but I was determined to find out and have joined a meme for everyday…except Thursday but I know I will find one hopefully before this Thursday.  I can’t believe how much I am enjoying this and how it is helping me to deal with what I am going through.  So getting back to this posting…..Over the next couple of days, it will probably take that long due to my ineptness of technology, I will be remodeling my page.   Nothing major but I want it more organized for me because I plan on adding more challenges and memes.  Giving another shout out for any suggestions for a Thursday meme, how and what is a permalink,  how to get the percentage bar from NaNoWriMo to work and/or another site where I can find one.  And maybe, just maybe, my blog will be more than a personal journal in the future.

*Grab your current read
*Open to a random page
*Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
*BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much   away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
*Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

Here’s mine:
  “I’m not going to lose my key”.
  “It’s for your protection”.
  “If you say so.” She wasn’t counting on it.

Joined in today for my first meme !!!!! Have decided that I will be continuing the Relax and Read Weekend.  Feel free to join me!!!!.  Now just need suggestions for memes on Wed. & Thursday and the week will be filled.  This new world of blogging is helping me more than one knows.  Today the back pain is intolerable but am coping due to my new hobby and reading, which I will be getting back to after this post.  I am currently reading Lost Souls by Lisa Jackson which is a Challenge I entered via J.Kaye’s Book Blog.

Any help with the NaNoWriMo meter would be greatly appreciated.  Having trouble getting it to work and show the % of books read.  I have seen this meter on many blogs and would really like to see my progress show especially since I am planning on adding many more challenges

Today’s MUSING MONDAYS post is about library etiquette…
It amazes me how parents allow their children to run around, laughing and talking loudly. But then so do the parents so I guess I shouldn’t be surprised since the parents should be setting an example at an early age. When my boys were small we would be at the library 2-3 times a week. Especially before they started school and our local library had activites for the preschoolers. They knew that we had to use our “library voices” so not to disturb other patrons who were reading and/or studying. It must have made an impression on my boys because while in college, one came home from the library and complained how he couldn’t study because of the rudeness of others.
