I quit fighting the book urge....that's it!

You know how no matter how big of a To Be Read pile you have on your bookshelves, you still can't help but get more from the library? Or walk by a bookstore and feel the need to buy yet another book, though you have the last 5 or so you bought sitting on that same shelf saying "read me, read me"?

I used to think that I could fight it, if I just tried hard enough I could overcome the need to read constantly, to grab books, to smell the pages (please tell me I'm not the only one that does that)...but it's stronger than me, so even though I have yet to finish 4 books from the library, I rechecked them out and ended up coming back with 1...ok maybe 2....actually it was 3. Still don't believe me do you? Alright, I'll come out and say it, 6 books.... but one is a cookbook so that doesn't count right?

Anyway, let me share with you what I checked out....before I do though I just have to tell you what Nicholas just said LOL He took his firetrucks and put one on top of the other in a way to make a rollercoaster kinda thing...then he says "look mommy, look at my new contraption". LOL

Sorry, but I don't even those those words so to hear a 5 year old say that just shocks me, in a funny kinda way LOL

Miss Julia throws a wedding by Ann Ross - Elizabeth told me about this series and unfortunately this is the only one that my library haves, but if I enjoy it I'm sure I can find the rest on paperbackswap or amazon.

I just received my next 3 DVD's of McLeod's Daughters so guess what I'm going to do now? *tee hee*

Oh btw, I'm sure you've noticed the template change again. This is the one I was working on when I messed something up last week, didn't have a chance to finish it until this morning...so don't worry, I'm keeping this one up for a bit, I just love the banner picture, makes me think I'm out on a farm somewhere surrounded by beautiful flowers, butterflies and warm sunshine.

Dinner tonight is a Vegetable Lasagna, as always the recipe will be up on the food blog later. Breafast tomorrow will be Waffles with Vanilla Custard...YUM....recipe will follow too.

Enjoy the rest of your saturday, I know I'll enjoy mine :)
