Sick Kids!!! RUN!!!!

Ok so not one but both of my kids are sick with temps that are around 102  which even if you are not a parent you should know that, thats not good.

So they both got in the tub and the little girls is now down but the 7 year olds is still pretty high.  So hopefully it will go down.  I don't want to have to take her to the ER.  They will gripe when I tell them no they can't fill her full of needles just for a cold.

So I wonder how long it will take for me aka. mom and my husband aka. dad to catch this crap. 

When life gives you lemons ....

When life gives you lemons. Throw them back and add some lemons of your own. So I won an iPad and started to sell off my print copies. Then our house got broken into and trashed. And all of the print books got torn up and my computer got stolen. So yay that I got the iPad but poo that we lost everything else.

A few people have been donating money to help us get back on track. And it's helped buy cloths and a few toys for the kids. So the donation button on here is for our situation and thanks to anyone who donates.

My Review:

This book was really good and is a must read. It gave a paranormal twist to the old story of Romeo and his Juliet.

I wish the ending would have been a little better. And I wish we would have cleaned up a few of the other lives that just kinda disappeared in the mist of time. But all in all it was a great story.

Biography

Lisa Cach is the award-winning author of more than twenty romantic novels and novellas, ranging across sub-genres from Paranormal, Historical, Contemporary, and Chick Lit, to Young Adult. Her novel "Dating Without Novocaine" was named one of Waldenbooks' "Best Books of 2002," and she is a two-time finalist for the prestigious RITA Award from the Romance Writers of America. 


Lisa Cach was born and raised in the Pacific Northwest, where she still lives today. Her professional background includes teaching conversational English in Japan, and several years working the graveyard shift on a mental health crisis line. She has traveled to the foothills of the Himalaya, the jungles of Borneo, the Carpathian Mountains of Romania, and the painted caves of the Perigord Noir, in France. She has sailed the Caribbean as a working crew member of a research schooner, and the Bering Sea as a guest on a small ship.
Her love of travel has lately given way to pursuits closer to home: cooking, gardening, drawing. And, of course, reading. Her favorite book has always been Charlotte Bronte's "Jane Eyre", while the only book to ever give her nightmares was Arthur Conan Doyle's "The Hound of the Baskervilles".

My Review:

OMG I just finished the book and it was great. If you start reading and you think its slow its ok it gets better. I would say that this is a book you want to read when you have extra time on your hands. But once you get into it you won't want to put it down. It is a very easy read. I didn't have any issues with having to go back and reread anything. And it had a wonderful ending. This book would make a nice series.

iPads are amazing!!!

Ok so this Tuesday what did I find in my mail box??? Well i found a 64gb iPad!!!

This thing is awesome and I love it. I'm on it now posting this!

Moving

Moving Sucks!!  It sucks even more then you are on a time limit.  OMG I didn't realize how many books I really had until I went to put them all back up on shelves. I have a butt load.

Well my room is all done for the most part yay. I am also the proud new owner of an IPad 2 Double YAY!!

The dogs are all outside right now looking at the people walking down the street and I'm back teaching my daughter her schooling.

Well back to reading.
