Who Doesn't Love...READING!!

I have always loved to read and can't think of a time in my life where I didn't have at least 2 books (ok, or more) on my nightstand.  I love going to the library and I particularly love getting FREE books either the physical copy or in e-format.  I wish that I had more time to read or could devote more time to it every day.  

I like doing reading challenges too.  I thought about compiling a list for you but then remembered that one of my favorite blogs already has a list compiled.  Head on over to Feed Your Fiction Addiction and check this list out for 2017 reading challenges.  WARNING: Be prepared to be there for awhile.  She will have the 2018 list up in a few weeks and I can't wait to see what's on there.  

If you like FREE books in e-format then you need to subscribe to the following.  They will send you an email daily with links to the books that are FREE that day.  What a better way to build your library!

I like to read just about any genre of book except horror.  Never have like it and I don't know if I ever will.    There are soooo many!  Here is a list that I have come up with:

Science fiction

Satire

Drama

Action and Adventure

Romance

Suspense

Mystery

Horror

Self help

Health

Guide

Travel

Children's

Religion, Spirituality & New Age

Science

History

Math

Cookbooks

Diaries

Journals

Prayer books

Series

Trilogy

Biographies

Autobiographies

Fantasy

Did I miss any?  I probably did.   I'm re-reading (again) The Little House on the Prairie books.  I read these as a little girl and not only do I love re-reading them because they are good books but because they bring back so many memories while I read them.  They are fantastic books for any age/gender and I recommend them all the time to those that are looking for books to give as gifts.

I've also started the Witch & Wizard series by James Patterson.  The first book is titled Witch & Wizard.

I really like reading the BE Series that Warren Wiersbe writes and have just started reading his Be Responsible based on 1 Kings earlier this week.

What genre do you like to read?  What are you reading now?  Do you ever read more than one book at a time?

Catching Up

I have finally started my first sock. I started it last week and Sam's soccer practice and I've been mainly working on it at his practices. Maybe I'll call them my soccer socks. Of course true to me being me I am already changing the pattern even though I've never done this before. I want to make it an ankle sock. I'm further along than this picture. I'll try to remember to take another picture of it later today. I'm already making the heal flap.

These two aren't the greatest pictures but I wanted to show you how close the B52's practice to Sam's soccer practice. It's fun to watch them flying around here every day.

This last picture was taken last week after the above soccer practice. I was the "leader" for the meeting and I had scheduled a tour of the local fire department. I was told it would last roughly 30 minutes which meant that I had to come up with something to do with them for another 30 minutes. Well to my surprise the tour actually lasted the full hour and it was just great! In fact the boys got to see the fire truck to out on a call to rescue a dog that had gotten up into an attic and had fallen down between the walls. Then not much later the ambulance was called out. Luckily they were able to go into the ambulance and get a tour of it before it was called out. This fire department is located across the street from Sam's school and is also a training center so we get to see them practicing putting out fire's quite often. Which of course Sam loves to watch. It was a wonderful , very exciting and informative meeting.



In just a little bit I'll be off to my last bible study. I'm kind of sad to see it end. It has been a good one. I'll try to summarize it later. We are talking about keeping this group going and picking out another study to do.



As usual...remember that you can click on the pictures to see them bigger.
