Chatter...

-I read 14 books last month--the month with 28 days. If I continued to finish reading a book every other day, I'd have read around 182 books in a year! Unfortunately that's not going to happen...I've suffered some major reader's block this month (I'm too busy!)

-Last night Audrey declared "I want to go to jail!" (which is, as I discovered upon questioning, behind the headboard of my bed)

-We're just beginning to study WWII for school. A couple of nights ago Andrew, Melinda, and Audrey were running around in the back yard screaming...come to find out they were "running from the Nazis". I'm glad to know that something is sticking.

-As I was cleaning and organizing things stored in one of our hall closets this weekend, I found all of my Christmas cds. Which, if you recall, I was so certain were in Tahoe while I was in Long Beach that I blogged about my pre-Christmas despair. Yeah, they were here all along. Pitiful I tell ya.

-I had a really wonderful "first experience" last week: I received in the mail my first ever Advanced Reader copy of a book! I was so excited...I haven't read it yet, but still exciting. I was picked to receive it from LibraryThing.com. It's the newest book by Beverly Lewis.

-Meanwhile, I'm still on the search for the perfect color to paint my bedroom (which is currently a bland shade of off-white). I really want something rich and warm, but am worried that the room is too small for it. I'm also noticing that the colors I love look a little odd with all the wood from our bedroom set. The walls are starting to look like a patchwork quilt with all the different blobs of color!
