Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, martini in the other, totally worn out and screaming,
"WOO HOO, what a ride!"

Mailbox Monday (late)

Mailbox Monday (started at The Printed Page and now a traveling meme) is at chaotic compendiums this month and is the gathering place for readers to share the books that came into their house last week (checked out library books don’t count, eBooks & audio books do). Warning: Mailbox Monday can lead to envy, toppling TBR piles and humongous wish lists.

Here I go complaining again but I can't get rid of this damn snowy mailbox. It's snowing right now! It sure is great reading weather though. 

Last week was all about children's books and we are loving them already. There's nothing better than snuggling with the little ones and enjoying a story or two - or three! I hope you have some great reads and warm weather at your house!

*(I was having internet issues yesterday and couldn't post this so I'm doing it today.)

It's still cold. And snowy. With more to come. Ick, ugh and yuck. Last year on this date my granddaughter was playing in the sandbox in her rainboots and underwear! (She was four) That balmy weather didn't last long but it didn't return to winter either. I haven't even seen a glimpse of spring yet this year! But I'm waiting patiently. Kind of.

In the meantime, I have plenty to read and I also got a few more goodies last week. I would much rather be reading in my hammock than near the fireplace but I can read anywhere! I hope you have lots of goodies to keep you happy and warm too!
