I Love Books!

   ^

   |          As you all may or may not know!

I am a huge reader and decided to try my hand an writing some reviews. I have read more books than I can remember so I think it is about time. I like giving my opinion so we will see how this goes.  I will be posting them over at my new blog (Let's call it my sister blog) Love Books- My Book Reviews.

So all you followers out there, check it out. Go follow that one.  Like I said, I am just starting, but someday I hope to have authors guest post and maybe do some give aways.  We'll see how it goes.

I Love Book Giveaways!

Especially when I win them!  I won a copy of Sweet Possession by Maya Banks from a contest Jaci Burton did on her blog.  I was so excited when I got the email, hubby was laughing at me. I can not WAIT for this book to arrive in my mail!
Thanks again to Jaci Burton for holding the contest that allowed me to win this!

I Love...My Job? NO! (Fiction by my friend Apasoha)

Welcome to The Fifth Level of Hell.

I work in THE FIFTH LEVEL OF HELL.  So lets call the spot I work in: Fifth Level of Hell Cantina.  I spend my days working in a dingy cavern that is forevermore tinged red by the fires of hell. I, half human/half demon, have been consigned to the Fifth Level of Hell for punishment for so slight an infraction that over the centuries I have forgotten what it was.


The cavern where the cantina is located (did I mention dingy; tinged red; HELL?) has been in Hell for eons.  Never updated, never upgraded. Lucifer, the boss, ignores us unless it is convenient for him. Currently many things are on the fritz, ready to fritz, or fritzed so long ago it is a distant memory that they ever worked at all.


Still we are expected to give the best level of service to our demon patrons. In fact they expect it and when expectations are not met...All HELL breaks loose. (Pun intended.)  My fellow internees and I do our best.  The degree with which we each hate our job is fairly equal.  Hey, in this day and age, there aren't a lot of options. So we struggle on finding fugacious happiness as we can.


Lucifer, when he deigns to grace us with his presence, prances around with his solid gold, diamond encrusted pitchfork. He is more interested in listening to show tunes and hanging at the local gym than listening to any employee complaints. He waltzes around: his overly large, forked tail twitching with every word that spews from his mouth.


Every day the same: Welcome to the Fifth Level of Hell Cantina. It is my pleasure to serve you today.


Today was especially dreary in the Fifth Level of Hell.  Even our patrons were unusually surly. The cook, Kazbakar, threw slop on a plate with abandon.  The dishwasher, Rolakar, came to work looking as if he had stopped and wallowed in the mud of the demon horse stables before coming to work.  While I, I could barely keep from screaming, so great was my disgust at yet another day in Hell serving ungrateful demons.


I hate my job in The Fifth Level of Hell.


More Fifth Level of Hell Stories to come.

I Love my girls


This is Me, Jules, Amber & Jen at Amber's going away party on Saturday.  We all had a blast.  I love the occasional and much needed girls night out!  That's all, didn't have anything important to say.  Here is a couple more for your viewing pleasure.




This is Jen, Amber, Me and Tiff (my little sis)


And there we are being goofy.


Have a great day!

I Love Orange

To show my support I am turning my blog ORANGE for the month of March. (I know, I am a little early)

National Multiple Sclerosis Education & Awareness Month


In November 2010, my life was turned upside down by a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis.  I am just taking it one day at a time.  One way I feel I can help fight this is by participating in the Janesville-Rock River Walk MS 2011.  I have formed my team and already we have raised $220.00 in donations.  I hope you will join my team or donate to help find a cure for MS.  Click the banner above to join/donate. 


Thanks!
