So now what?!

I finished the series "UGLIES" this week. I really liked the first book (Uglies) and the last book (Extras). The other 2 were good. So now that I have finished those... I don't quite know what to read! I guess I will have to check out the library here and see if I can find some books on the goodreads list some friends have posted.
I am LOVING going in to work at 9. That extra 30 min. to sleep is WONDERFUL! I finally broke down this week and purchased insurance for myself. sigh. I am hopeful that once my center is bought then the new owner will be a little more helpful with it.
I have come to and end of buying concert tickets. (I think). This week I bought tickets to see Michael Buble`. Should be fun. (concert not 'til Oct.)
Dad and I are going to make the trek to see Grandparents this weekend. I will definitly need to take movies and books for the drive.

Summer over

Tomorrow I get to start my fall schedule at work! I go in at 9... and if I am lucky I go home at 5:30-6:00 otherwise I stay until 7:30. We'll see how that goes.
My goal is to exercise in the mornings. Maybe by writing this you can help me do it.
I finished a book this weekend. UGLIES. I actually liked it. There was some political commentary in there, but I laughed and ignored it. I did like the theme of loving the way people look with out needing to be perfect. (I bust be self-conscious since my sister's WII FIT told me I was overweight and made my animated body chubby!)
So, if you are needing a good girl likes boy story after the Twilight series--maybe check this one out!
Also-- Michael Phelps won his 8 gold medals. I can go to bed at a decent time now!

I got it

Well I hope you all enjoy the pictures. Took me long enough to get to it!
I did two slide shows as I felt like I had "2" trips. The first part with friends and the second with family. Sadly I forgot to charge my camera and so there aren't very many pictures of the family part. sigh.

I am currently loving the Olympics. Go Michael Phelps! I do love the summer games.

I finally got to watch the finale of So You Think You Can Dance. I was happy with who won. Now I am really looking forward to the tour!

Back at work... back to the grind of life.

Idiot!

So, I took these fun pictures of Becky and her kids... then I downloaded them to her computer and promtly deleted them from my camera. The problem.. she has dial-up and I cannot send the pictures to myself for fear it would take ALL DAY to do that. So I am trying to get them on my blog before the kids wake up--- and it is still taking forever! My sister was kind enough to tell me how to do a slide show, but again with dial up I have no patience! So I am trying something else. We will see. So far I don't have the option of adding a picture... Frustration. Stay tuned to see if this works.

First half of UT

Well I just have enough time to add a few pictures. I have enjoyed my time with Becky and her family. Enjoy the pictures!

Breaking Dawn

Ah-- the anticipation is OVER! I have finished the book. Friday night I was at a Border's bookstore for the book release party. It wasn't really a party so much as a chance for teenagers to dress like vampires. I was the THIRD person to get a wristband and I thought that meant I would be the 3rd in line....NOPE! Little did I know, there would be a huge line to get the book. It was exciting to see them roll out the boxes of books-- and then the wait began. After 15-30 min. of the line NOT moving my group decided to go to Wal-Mart and get it there-- no line.

I got to start reading Sat. during the never ending garage sale... and fininshed it today.

My reaction-- what an interesting book. Still need to process my thoughts on it, but I do think I liked it a lot. The last just seemed so different than the first 3... but I am happy with the ending. I can totally see where she can pick up and carry on-- now that Bella's story has been told. HOORAY!

This week I get to go to Utah! YEAH! I am so excited. It will be great to see friends and family... and let my niece celebrate her birthday month. The trip to 7 Peaks is the official celebration in her mind, I believe.

I am still trying to get Kinsee to say my name....I was lazy this weekend with the book and having a cold. Sure hope I am 100% by the time I fly!

Thanks for reading!
