  I usually join in for Wondrous Words Wednesday, however, I didn’t find any words that stumped me.  I will be visiting those bloggers that have new words so I can expand my vocabulary.
  Today I will also go on my treasure hunt looking for new book blogs for “Thursday Treasure”  If you would like to join in on this new meme, check out the right sidebar of this blog.

  Here in New England, we are expecting a snow storm with predicted snow fall close to a foot of snow.  What better way to spend this kind of day than by getting cozy and warm with a good book and a cup of coffee or hot chocolate….those are my plans for later today!!

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be Reading. Anyone can play along! Just do the following:
*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!
My Teaser:
“I’m your enemy now?”    “No your morals are.”
      From False Convictions by Tim Green    page 130

Did everyone enjoy Super Bowl Sunday?  Did your team win?  What were your favorite commercials?
 We laughed at the Dorito ones, especially the dog and the bark collar and I just love the ETrade commercials with the little ones sitting in front of a computer…Adorable !!
  Now on to memes….One Persons Journey Through A World of Books is now hosting “Its Monday, What Are You Reading…..Thank You for hosting Sheila !!

Today’s MUSING MONDAYS post is about a random book. I’ve seen several bloggers mention reading multiple books this week. Do you frequently read more than one book at a time? Do you try to limit this to a certain number? Do you have different books for different purposes/topics?
I always have, and still do, read just one book at a time.  I feel that once I start a book, especially those for pure enjoyment, I want to give that read my full attention.  I would be afraid that if I read more than one, I would have to reread pages to recall characters, plot, etc.  I want to thoroughly enjoy my current read.

Super Bowl

Happy Super Bowl Sunday !!!!!!  What are your plans today?  Do you enjoy football?
                                              Photobucket
I am not a sports fan but I usually just watch for the new commercials.  Hubby is making his “famous chili and we will have other picky food.  In between the commercials I will be reading, eating and listening to my guys yelling at the tv.

I think I have most of kinks out of my Feedburner newsletter, at least I hope so.  I am not sure if you need to resubscribe as it might be a different code.
                                                Relax and Read Weekend
For those who aren’t watching the game, then try to have a Relax and Read Sunday!  Happy Reading all!

Sat

First I want to say to those affected by this snow storm, please stay safe !!
I have my post-it ready for my “to do list Saturday”.  Since I have CRS, I usually lose my list so when I came across this site for computer “post its” it had my name written all over it.
                                               Photobucket
Today the level of pain, certain weather conditions intensifies my pain, is not a good day.  Between the pain, and trying once again to try and figure out why my newsletter subscription is not working, this may be me in a few hours.  LOL  I believe that if you find humor in every situation then it just isn’t as bad as you thought. 
                                              Photobucket
Hopefully later I will be in my reading chair, relaxing and enjoying my current read.
Happy Saturday all!!
