• Mom tried a new recipe. I told her Olive Garden would want the recipe:) She blogged it here.
• On Monday we did a major purging of our house. We finally gave our donations to the Salvation Army. We celebrated our tax anniversary (President's Day is when we do ours) Went did some shopping and returning.
• On Tuesday we went to my aunts house. We had loads of fun, laughing, sharing, eating, and sniffing Scentsy that is:)
• Had an achy throat on Wednesday. I could barely talk for half of the day:( Made the seasoning for the meat all by myself. I have converted my Father into a book lover! I enjoy recommending new titles and  talking about the characters and plots of the stories with him.
• Such a classic moment on Thursday. Since I was in between sniffles that day and had to sing with Pastor for the worship, I decided to tuck a tissue in my watch just in case. Since I wear my watch on my left and hold the mic with my left as well you could see my tissue sticking out:) I am thankful I didn't have to use up there!
• Enjoyed a girls night in today. First a rendezvous with Kianna:) Followed by a time of just relaxing, talking, reading. Next we ate a scrumptious salad that we made together. So time later we proceeded to have our home pedicures.

{Randomness}

I decided to do a random post on random or unknown facts about me.

I am a secret perfectionist. I say secret because looking at me you wouldn't think that, since perfectionists are usually super neat (which I'm not.) I can NOT color the dog purple because that is so not real. If I start a art project I have to finish it or at least leave it in a stage that still looks pretty. 

I'm totally artsy fartsy. Just an expression I heard of. I usually pick homeschool hours to get inspired, no that came out wrong. Inspiration strikes when during homeschool:)

I have a very sensitive nose, especially toward cigarette smoke.

My hair is longer than it actually looks.

I'm a lefty and no my handwriting isn't messy- or not as messy as people tend to believe lefty's have.

People are usually telling me "to eat a burger"ok only one person tells me that, but they do tell me to eat, and I do... a lot.

If stranded on an island with one food item I'd most definitely pick potatoes. Hash brown for breakfast, wedges for lunch, and mashed potatoes for dinner:)

I learned to ride a bike at 9ish or 10.

I think all my teeth are consisted of sweet ones.

I'm not so hot in math, but want to be a nurse:)

I cry very easy. I can see someone cry and start to tear up for no reason.

I love hearing people laugh. It makes me laugh.

why not a random pic too?!

How To Get Free Books


You've heard the saying nothing in life is free. With our economy as it is, it could be said its a true one. While there is some truth in it, I also found an exception. 

Books. Free books! Wouldn't you love to get the newest christian fiction titles for free? Well continue reading and you'll be well on your way to some free books*. 

What's with the star, you're probably asking yourself? Continue reading and you'll see why. 

Each company gives their own "How To" but here is one to convince how free is really free:)

The Rules: There are many different companies that provide you with the free books, but before we get to those here are the basic rules. (Each company differs but basically require the same.) 

First of all you must have an active blog established. Active as in you post somewhat regularly. Your blog does not have to be dedicated just for books, it can be your average daily diary one too. Blog? check. (Some companies require a certain amount of blog posts before you can join.) 

Once you sign up to the programs and they accept you are one step closer to those books. Keeping in mind that the rules differ slightly, not all the companies function the same. You are allowed to pick any book you want. You do not have to choose a book you do not want to read.

While you may be so book happy at the prospect of the free books, here comes that *. The one condition to the free books is that you give your honest review of the book you received. If you did not like it you can say so in your review without fear of being kicked out. 

Once you write your review, you must post it on your blog, on a consumer website (CBD, Amazon, etc.) and onto the programs website. 

How easy is that! I hope you don't let this awesome opportunity pass. I've enjoyed these programs immensely!

Next we can move on to the companies. These are a few that I enjoy:

Hope you enjoy your FREE BOOKS!
