Book #2

I finally finished this book {based on the Grimm brother fairy tail The Six Swans}!!!

This book was given to me as a gift by a friend!! After reading the back of the book I was so excited to start reading it!!
But man.... it took me a long time to get through it!! The first couple of chapters were really slow... background kind of stuff and sets up the whole story! But I finally hit a point where I didn't want to put it down!

I think I will have to read the next one in the trilogy now!

The End Is Near

I have always been a huge Harry Potter fan!! Yep... and I am not afraid to shout it out on my blog!! LOVE IT!!!

I stood in so many midnight lines waiting for the books to be released, and then stayed up all night reading them!! I also stayed up late to see midnight showings with some of my best friends!!

I cant believe the whole thing is almost over!!! Those cheesy tag lines are true.... the ones that say "a series that defined a generation."
The first Harry Potter book came out when I was 12!! Half my life time ago!! It's crazy how many years have gone by since I read that first book!! I cant even count the number of times I have read each book!
Reading the last few pages of The Deathly Hallows was very bitter sweet! I was so excited to find out where the story went and what happened to all of the characters.... but it was over!! There would be no more adventures in Harry's magical world!

The last movie will be the same way! I am SO excited to see it!! I am excited for the battle scenes and for all the twists in the story to finally come out!! The final scenes of the epilogue will be awesome... I'm sure I will cry! For it will all be over!! No more books, no more movies!!
But I am proud to say that I was part of it for all 14 years!

My friend Nicole posted this on her Facebook page and on her blog!! It was too amazing not to share!!

It's lunch time!!

This is what I will be eating for lunch today.....



But what I really want is this.....


Yes, I know that it is freezing cold outside, so an ice cream
cone shouldn't sound that great, but it does!! I really want
and Arctic Circle twist cone!! Mmmm!!
Brings back lots of summertime memories!!

And in other news.......

I found my missing cell phone!! Well.... I didn't find it, my
fantastic Dad found it for me!! It was at my house....
the stupid couch tried to eat it!! It had fallen down, behind the
cushions, down by the springs of the couch!
I am SO happy to have my phone again! HUGE feeling of relief!
I was looking at phones online and there was no way I would have
been able to afford one!!

Gone

My iPhone has disappeared...... somewhere between 18th E and 13th E.......
It just vanished!!

I have searched my car.......
Which included kneeling down on the street in a skirt and tights.....

I searched my house......
Looked under the couch cushions, moved the couch, checked
all coat pockets.....

No luck.............

So I drove back up to 18th E.......
Drove around the church parking lot..... wondering if I would
find its crushed shell sitting on the asphalt......
Nope.....

Then I walked up and down the hall of the church.....
Nothing.....


I cannot imagine where it has gone to....
But I now have no phone, no texting, no Words With Friends.....
I hate not having my phone....
I hate that I have no idea where else to look....
I hate the thought of paying $300 for a stupid new phone....
