Life is too short to read a bad book.

Let it snow.....
Well, we got snow last night. Not a lot, but it's a combination of rain, snow, slush and general yuck which makes driving very interesting. It's pretty and it smells so wonderful outside, but I'm not looking forward to the drive home.

I finished reading the short story "Hot Toy" by Jennifer Crusie in the Santa, Baby anthology. It was cute ~ I chose to ignore the levels of ridiculous that were in the story and concentrated on Nolan and Trudy. They had great chemistry ~ I'll write more on this later.

I started reading The Pleasure Slave by Gena Showalter last night ~ it sucked me right in and I'm already on page 100. Great story so far. I love how Tristan pushes Julia's buttons.

Visit to the doctor yesterday went okay ~ all my bloodwork came back normal, so that's a relief. So now, I go back next week for a bone scan.

Don't forget!:



The ladies over at Sanctuary's Finest are doing a fun end of the year giveaway.

Please visit their blog and check it out!

    Hey you!

    Thanks for participating in our free book giveaway! =) Good luck to you! I'm glad that the doctor's visit went okay and your blood work is okay. Ugh, that doesn't sound like the snow I want, all yucky and slushy.

    I can't wait to read your review on the books you just got and are reading...I have money to burn on books I cannot wait!

    I'm glad your blood tests came out ok.

    It was pouring rain yesterday!!! My dumb butt left my umbrella in the car. I was soaked!!

    I'm glad your tests came back okay! What kind of bone scan? I have to get a bone scan every six to 12 months and I love it. I look so tall and skinny on the screen! lol Let us know what the results are.

    Wish we'd get just a little bit of snow here!

    Izzy ~ I've never been smart enough to travel with an umbrella. I don't think I've ever owned one.

    Jen ~ The scan is just for my fingers to see why the joints are so painful. The doctor says he thinks it's low-grade arthritis, but I need the scan before he does the shots.

    Glad that the bloodwork came back alright and I hope your feet are feeling better! I know you mentioned that the shot was maybe kicking in.

    It's Christmas Eve and I need to go to bed soon but just wanted to wish you Happy Holidays!

    I hope your snow lasted long enough to have a "White Christmas".

    Have a merry...

    Let's hear it for okay blood work! That was a great Christmas gift! Hope your holiday was Merry and Bright!

    Cindy ~ I hope you had a Merry Christmas. We won't be celebrating until Friday because my Mom and my brother-in-law had to work Christmas day, but I did go to a few friends houses and also had a nice dinner with my sister and niece.

    Tara Marie ~ The snow melted the day after it fell, so no white Christmas here. I love it when the snow is on the ground.

    Zeek ~ Thank you! I hope you had a Merry Christmas :-)

    Mailyn ~ So glad to see you. Hope you had a happy holiday.

    Jen ~ We'll celebrate on Friday, but there will be about 15 of us (my sister's marrying into a big family and so it's a combined Christmas with both of their families).

    Hey babe! I've missed you. :) I'm almost ready for a vacation from my vacation. lol

    How's your time off going?

    Any who, I hope you had a great Christmas (today, right?) and a great New Year, too.

    HUGS!

    Hey Holly! Good to see you. I'm wishing I'd taken more time off ~ I'm dreading going back to work on Tuesday. I've had a fairly lazy week. Yes, Christmas with the family was yesterday ~ there was something like 18 of us total.

    I was way lazy, too, and not at all happy to come back to work yesterday. I just want another week, or two, or YEAR off. PLEASE???

    A year might be nice ~ I might be rested up by then.
