Books, etc.

Hi!  I've had a busy week.  I finally finished my mini quilt for the "SNOW" QT swap (which I'll be showing you next week) and I must admit that it was a hard one to send off.  The requirements require the quilt to be within 6x6 to 12x12 inch perimeters, so the one I made at 7 1/2 by 10 1/2 fit perfectly in the small space by my back door.  Right now I have a mug rug hanging there.  After it was done, I could have kicked myself for not making it earlier so I could look at it for awhile.  Duh!  That'll teach me!  Believe it or not, I even signed up for the next swap titled, "HOUSES" and I already have an idea of what I will do.

Like I told you last time, I have been reading!  Here is my stack so far (with another 6 in my Amazon cart waiting to be checked out).  After I was done taking this picture, I realized that I forgot one that I had finished this week titled, "Gone Girl" by Gillian Flynn.  It was the only hardcover and is already on my hubby's stack of books yet to be read.  I really enjoyed "Gone Girl", except for the end.  This is one  of the books on my list to read that was made into a movie for 2014 and it should be great!  I'm thinking the author probably ended the book with thoughts of a sequel movie for a follow-up novel.  Who knows?

I also finished the top one on the picture titled, "Where'd you Go, Bernadette", which was probably one of the funniest books I have ever read.  I loved it!!  I bought it on Friday afternoon and finished it Saturday.  (It's at most Target stores, if you're interested.)  The next book is, "Morning Glory".  I remember liking what I read in the reviews, so we'll see. 

Not too many envelopes sent out this week.  It's been snowing almost daily and then I stay home!  Not many post office runs for me, thank you!!  This winter has really been brutal and I hate to think that we have about 2 1/2 months to go yet.  Ugh!  No wonder I'm liking curling up with a good book.

So that's it!  Another week gone!  Hope yours was more exciting than mine!  Stay warm!
