MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
Such a busy week! Wedding plans are still going on for my sister, who is getting married on the 27th, Christmas is this Sunday, and as of Friday – I FINALLY own a car again! It’s a cute little 2010 Kia Soul, and I’ve named it Aretha Franklin (my mom insists on calling her “Frankie”) ((Also, if you eat food in her I’ve decided it would be “soul food”)) (((yes, the jokes keep on coming))). =)
2012 is coming up – can you believe it? It really feels like just yesterday we were having the Y2K scares and now it’ll be TWELVE years since that time! 2012 will also kick off my third year of book blogging, and it’s been a great ride. While you are here, be sure to check out the information on my 2012 Western Genre Challenge - have some great prizes happening there! Spread the news, I’d be so grateful!
While you are here be sure to check out the third post in my annual series of five gift recommendations for the readers in your lives! This week I featured books that’ll make you think.
