Hello Again

I feel like I should tell you the truth right now. The truth is- I have stopped myself from Blogging for the past couple months. It was one of the restrictions I put on myself during a time when I had nothing good to say, but it was because of my attitude, not my situation that I had nothing good to say.

I don't care what is going on in my life, if I can feed and house us and if we are healthy, I should not have nothing good to say. (Did you follow that?) I succumbed to a bad attitude. I was ungrateful and bitter and sad and angry when I could be, because it meant I didn't have to be sad. I have still not completely smacked myself back into place yet, but I feel I have earned the right to continue my blog through my good behavior on facebook :)

So what did I read when I needed to escape from myself? What else but Harry Potter?

  

The first four in paperback and the last three in hardcover. By the time the last three were published I was one of those crazy people at the midnight release... therefore, I had to splurge for hardcover.

We also discovered this adorable young readers series called Seekers. They are a series of books about the travels and adventures of four bears. Two grizzly bears, a polar bear, and a black bear that start out in totally different situations and locations and end up united in purpose and traveling together.

     

They are told from the point of view of the bears, which is exactly what Gwen loves! Barnes and Noble.com says they are for ages 10-12... what kind of age range is that?? Honestly! Who comes up with that stuff anyway?

What have you been reading?
