A few more reads ...

Okay, read some more books! LOL!
First of all, finished Shadow Divers and I absolutely loved it!! It was so good.
Also read:

The Simple Faith of Mister Rogers by amy Hollingsowrth. Yeah, it was okay. I loved Mr. Rogers growing up, this made me love him more, but I don't know that I loved the writing style so much, if that makes any sense at all?
Round Robin by Jennifer Chiaverini ... better than the first book in the series! I had to request the third book and it will be ready for pick-up tomorrow (yeah!)
Desecration: Antichrist Takes the Throne (Book 9) and The Remnant: On the Brink of Armageddon (Book 10) by Jim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins ... almost done with the series now. I admit book 9 made me feel like it was all dragging but it sped up in book 10 thankfully! LOL!

Currently reading
The Queen's Fool: A Novel by Philippa Gregory ... I've read her other book and LOVED it and so far this is starting off just as well!

Reading Report ...

Well, I haven't managed to do anything else, but I have managed to read a ton. Mostly becuase reading I can do lying down with ease and it's easy to do outside when it's 90 degrees! LOL!!
Anyway, since I haven't done anything in several months but reading, I'm going to write a list of what I've read since it's about all I have to talk about anymore! LOL!

The Taking by Dean Koontz ... didn't like it!
False Memory by Dean Koontz .... better than the other one!
Sole Survivor by Dean Koontz ... so-so
Frankenstein: Book One The Prodigal Son by Dean Koontz (what can I say, my aunt is in love with Koontz and brought me a bunch of her books to borrow! LOL!) ... now this one, I didn't think I would like it, but I can NOT wait for book two to come out (soon too!)
Valhala Rising by Clive Cussler ... hooked me!
The Indwelling (book 7) by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins ... I love this series
The Mark (book 8) by Tim LaHaye and Jerry B. Jenkins ... book 9 is sitting in my TBR pile!
The Splitting Storm by Rene Gutteridge ... okay
(I read another book here, but for the life of me can't remember the title!)
The Piano Teacher by Lynn York ... okay
Quilter's Apprentice by Jennifer Chiaverini ... so good! 2nd book in the series is in my TBR pile!
Bee Season by Myla Goldberg ... it was so-so
Black Wind by Clive Cussler with Dirk Cussler - good
And I'm about 85% done with

Still missing ...

Still trying to get over all the illness. Still not doing anything these days. I was supposed to teach knitting on Sunday, but the class was cancelled. Although it wasn't cancelled by me, I was thankful anyway!
I'm approaching the end of the first trimester, and just starting to feel a bit better, so I hope that I continue to feel better so I can get working on projects again! =)

MIA ...

Sorry, I've been MIA.
I haven't been knitting.
I haven't been sewing.
I haven't been scrapbooking.
I haven't been doing anything.
Well, that's not true .... I have been doing my more than fair share of sleeping. I have also been throwing up (although that's under control finally I think).
You see, surprises of all surprises I found out I'm expecting ... due in December - December 12 to be exact.
However, this baby is kicking my butt already. You'd think after having 2, I'd know how to handle this whole pregnancy thing, but this is by far the most horrid morning sickness experience I have yet to feel. My first two were not like this at all.
Ugh.
But, I'm happy, and excited, and just counting down the days to the second trimester, when hopefully this will all end.
Even dh said something like "You really must be sick because I haven't seen you working on any crafts lately"
Here's hoping I'm back soon!

Always call ahead ....

So today I figured would be my day to venture to the LYS. Found out it's only .7 of a mile away (but tucked in an area I've never been before hence I never noticed it LOL!)
So 2 year old goes in the stroller, 5 year old walks besides me ... and off we set to walk there. The weather was gorgeous and I hate to drive such a little distance LOL! So we get there and hte hours are something like 10-3 everyday. But then there is a handwritten sign that says "Store will be closed on Mondays starting ..." some day before today!
Bummer. I wanted to go in too. Oh well, at least I know where it is now. And the walk was nice. Also, the local Jewel was only a few blocks away (towards home) so we ended up stopping there and getting some nice yummies!
Anyway, didn't end up doing hardly any knitting today. Still plugging along on the knitted dress for my 2 year old (although I'm having very inconsistent tension @@), started some socks for my 2 year old (out of what was left from my 5 year old's socks) and yesterday I picked up some yarn to start another blanket!
