3 Book down, 97 more to go!


Vampire Mine (Love at Stake, #10)

A Book with a Nonhuman Character

OMGoodness! Talk about Yummy, I love this author. I can't stop thinking about this author next book wondering who it might be and who is next for love.  Conner finally found love!  

Goodreads description: 

After 499 years of existence, Connor Buchanan has arrived at an inescapable conclusion: he is a cold-hearted SOB. He's been watching his friends—those poor romantic fools—plummet off the cliff into love like a dazed herd of sheep. But not Connor. He knows that love leads to nothing but heartache.

Until Marielle . . .

She is an angel cast down from heaven for disobedience. Trapped in mortal form, she finds a protector in Connor, a Scottish vampire haunted by a dark past. Marielle hopes to heal his broken heart and earn her way back home, but suddenly she has these . . . feelings. This strange yet pleasant physical yearning—for a vampire! Is this the work of a demon luring her into hell, or has this angel found heavenly bliss?

All I have to say is if you want to read a good book that is full of love, action, and well that's right Sex. Then this book is prefect. I am telling everyone who needs a yummy book to read. 

I am off to book 4 on my list, still looking for it. Look for more books by Kerrelyn Sparks. My other goal is read every book that she written in this series. 

2 Book down, 98 more to go!

A Book Based on Story.


Eat, Pray, Love



Let me say that the Eat, Pray, Love is great book that will make you think and look deep into your self. The whole time reading the book I was thinking about the three trips I would take to explore my enter most self. I can only come up with Paris, Italy, England, Ireland, and Greece. Okay so that is 5. lol! Paris because of the art, Italy because of Leonardo, England because of the Tudors, Ireland because of my family came over decades ago, Greece because of Mythology. I know the book was about a journey within yourself (authors journey). Yet my journey would be about things I love and things I could never time learning about. I even started to keep a journal after this book, starting off easy. 

Vampire Mine (Love at Stake, #10)

A Book with a Nonhuman Character


My next book is "Vampire Mine" by Kerrelyn Sparks.  Dose a Angel and Vampire count as nonhuman. I think so! Human to me is just normal, Nonhuman is not so normal. lol! 

I am off to read to book 3 on my list! 

A Glass of Wine: Weekly Obsessions

A good friend of mine writes this blog. She is never wrong when it comes to a good book read. This book sounds very interesting, I am a Peter pan fan. That's just a bonus! I can't wait to get my hands on this book.

Crochet Challenege


Crochet



Here is my Crochet Challenge for the month of January. I had been working on it at work but finished it up over my weekend.

The pattern was a little hard to understand, so I had to watch the video. I love the The Crochet Crowd! They always break down a pattern to the most simplest way.

I finished my hat yesterday. I think I made my stichets a little to tighet, other wise it looks great.

Thinking of redoing it but making it a little more fun by using gray and mint. lol! This time using a little bigger hook since I make my stiches tight. I think this hat will go to my niece. lol!

Eat, Prey, Love by Kerrelyn Sparks

Eat Prey Love (Love at Stake, #9)

I am in love with this author. I am hooked!!! I have read 9 books back to back and each one keeps getting better. If you want another good paranormal romance series to read this would be perfect for you. The Love at Stake Series !

Goodread Description:
Wanted: Bride. Must love children. Mortals need not apply.
Carlos Panterra is looking for a mate, a woman who will love and care for the young orphans he's recently taken under his wing (or paw, as the case may be). When the shape shifter spies the beautiful Caitlyn, it's like sunshine amidst the darkness. At last, he's found the perfect woman, except . . .

Caitlyn Whelan is mortal. Worse, her father is the head of a CIA agency bent on hunting the undead. Still, Caitlyn knows that Carlos is the man for her, shape shifter or not. So she jumps at the chance when her sister offers her a job to work with him, determined to show Carlos their attraction is more than just animal magnetism. But danger lurks in the night, and their unleashed, untamed passion might just get them both killed . . .


I can't wait to start book 10 but its not ready yet at the library. So I picked my 2nd book of the year.

*A Book based on a True Story

Eat, Pray, Love by Elizabeth Gilbert.

A 30 Day Workout


So step one is getting health. I am going to do a 30 day workout. Sadly, I am behind. I started off the new year with a double car wreck. My legs are badly bruised and the doctor said no major movements. So I've not started the workout. But I'm on day 4 of lite movements and getting better each day. Had to put on hold but I'm hoping for the end of the week. 



New Year!!

Welcome to 2015!







I am off to a crazy start. I wanted to create a blog to remind me of important things. Its one things to focus on family but when your forget the most important self then there might be a problem. So I have create this blog to just a place to focus on me.






Crazy maybe but I am all over the place and we need to get on a path that is more organized, more healthy, more relaxing, and less stress. So I have came up with 5 areas I want to focus.




  •  More family


I want to spend more time with my family, even more so since its changing. I want it to be less stress and drama. Don't get me wrong I love my family. I have a wonderful boyfriend of 10 years. I have two wonderful stepchildren (we may not be married but after all this years, I do love them more then the moon), one will soon make us grandparents. I love my life as a Auntie. I am crazy about my bug-a-boos. I am have two of the cutest fur babies. So yes my life is wonderful but just needs tweaking.


  • Get Healthy


A year ago I was going to the gym, lost 40 pounds, but since moving back to my home state. I have gotten off track. So my goal this year is to get back in line. By starting a 30 day work out.


  • More relaxations


I always see to be on the go and never seem to relax. I slow down but never stop. So that's my goal!


  • More things I love


I love read, write, draw, paint, craft, crochet. So my goal this year is to clean out a room and make my own and being enjoying things again. I started last year but this year needs to full of it.


  • Find a place to share it all!


Well I started this blog and tumblr. As well as facebook and pinterset but I wanted a place to talk and share more. So here it is.
