zippity do dah it is FRIDAY!  lovin it.  lovin that i turned off the alarm for good this morning, ok for two days but its somethin'. 

earlier in the week, i started to not feel so hot.  its been a good while since me, the mom was actually "sick" but i think i am gettin a summer cold.  (BOO)  i know totally not liking it, but rest and lots of vitamin c is on the docket.  i actually picked up my book that i started reading like two three four months ago and finished it.  honestly, i only had a few pages to go, so i don't know why it was so hard to finish and since i have started another and am now almost finished with it.  i had to force myself to put it down last night because i just want to know what happens.....but realizing rest might be a bit more important i did go ahead and shut it.  this is the first not downloaded to my kindle book i've read since i got my kindle...there is still something comforting in actually turning the pages.
if you are looking for a quick read that keeps you interested check out " for one more day" by mitch albom.  i've read a couple of his other works and they are fab too.  they can be a little emotional as well so if you aren't into crying then you might want to pass.  (i guess this "for one more day" oprah made into a movie, so i just might have to find it)

i picked up my latest read the other day on a much needed trip to half price books, i bought kman like 5 or 6 "Chapter Books".  i figured he was ready to listen to something a little more mature.  i am pretty sure i could have bought all the books in the section.  i remembering reading several of them and hopefully he'll enjoy them just as much as i did.   i found a great list on this blog sarahjanestudios and used it as a guide....but there were so many too choose from that i didn't really even need it.  we are started with a matt christopher selection.  a baseball themed story.

kman has been pretty excited about it and even wanted to take one of his new books to show and tell today. (BIG STUFF HERE)

here's to a fabulous fun filled weekend!  cheers.
