Sunshine, Sharing and books!
What a glorious week of weather we had.
50's and on two days 60 degrees!
For us that's a heat wave.
Time to open the windows.
Hear the birds chirping.
Sleep with the windows cracked open.
The snow has melted.
Things are starting to green up again.
and then....
on Saturday it snowed 2 inches!
That's Chicago for ya!
Even though I live an hour from downtown, it sounds much cooler than...
That's Illinois for ya!
Last week I put these up
I should have ironed it, but that's what the wind and rain is for.
The wreath needs something, I'm going to go out today and look for some butterflies and ribbon.
Totally am in love with this line from Target.
It does not go with my homes inside decor, so I settled for the gardening gloves.
When I woke up to the snow on Saturday, I decided to spend the day reading this book.
Seriously fell in love with it.
I loved it so much I ran out and bought another of her books The House at Riverton.
I would love to see this made into a PBS mini series like Little Dorrit.
You can check the author out here. She has a nice website.
This weekend I also made a little confession to Brad...
I finally told him I am not a nook girl.
The thing is I never asked for the nook, he thought i was hinting at it because I had brought the marketing tool home.
I was so relieved to have finally said it.
I love book stores and books, and when I fall in love with a book and the author i love to share it.
Yes, you can share with the nook, but it not the same as touching the pages of the written word.
So the first person to leave me a comment that is interested in reading my copy can have it!
The snow is almost all gone ...
again!
Looking forward to a great week of weather and...
Dancing with the Stars! I had given up on this show, but I must say I'm totally looking forward to Kate Gossellin and the possible wardrobe malfunctions of Pamela Anderson...
I'm jut sayin!
Here's to books, sharing, dancing, and sunshine!

I love that all the new Liberty stuff at Target, too. I just stand in front of the dish displays thinking...I wish you ALL could come home with me. Ha!!
I'm with you on books. I love 'em! I love seeing their pretty covers all over the house.
I hope the snow melts fast :) Happy Monday to you!!
How bout it, snow after our beautiful week....totally "Chicago" weather! LOL!
I have a Kindle, and while it's fun, I think I'm with you as well....there is just something cool about holding a book and turning the pages...
I'll have to check out her books, always on the lookout for a good read!
Blessings,
I guess that to receive the mortgage loans from banks you must have a good motivation. Nevertheless, one time I have received a college loan, just because I wanted to buy a house.
Blog was cute, but the song killed me......
I agree, everything can't go techno on us. We have to keep some things alive. im with you on that.
Glad you got a bit of a warm up there. but like you said it can change up on you just as fast. Think spring.. Back to work tomorrow after 12 days off yuck?
I am planning on getting some of the storage pieces from that line at Target. I think it will look great in my new crafty room. I can't wait to get it done!
I love holding a book also. Plus losing a book is soooo much cheaper than losing a Nook! Which I am sure I would do!
