I finished yanking most of the stuff out of the boys' room so I could steam clean their carpet. Best laid plans went a rye...so the boys furniture is in the hall and in our room until I can get the steam cleaner repaired/rent one/or my mom will replace my old machine with a new one for her that I can borrow. Either way it will get done.
2. I took photos for the yearbook, again today, of High Touch, High Tech. This program is an in-school field trip. Eve's class was there today. I was able to see her with the bugs, which was the theme.
3. I was also the library volunteer for the afternoon. I really dig this opportunity to talk books with kids and adults.
4. Made a pan of baklava for my Aunt Loly's Christmas present. My mom will deliver it on Saturday. Made up the fixin's for another pan for Thanksgiving at my dad's house. I just need to buy some more honey.
5. Laughed, but though it wasn't a bad idea, when Michael said that if a movie was ever made of his life he wanted the role to go to Tim Roth.

I'm enjoying the insights.
*********Book Reviews*******
I recommend this book to all tween girls and their older counterparts. I enjoyed the twist on the fairytale stories. There is a lot of bumps and bruises on the way to true love and the fairytale ending, but it kept the story lively. The part of the story with the leprechaun, the computer gremlins and Ding Dongs was quite amusing. Oh how I do appreciate shampoo and a good bath too after reading this book. It's fun read...give it a try.
A girl trying to figure out who she wants to be and trying to be comfortable in her own skin. This is a so so book for girls who feel a bit out of sorts becoming a tween.
I ended up reading this book on my walk to the park. I was supposed to return the book to the library because Rachel had already read it. I'm interested in the books she reads. She likes some of mine too. She will be reading The Help after she finishes My Fair Godmother. I actually read My Fair Godmother before she did because I saw it on Kim's shelfari.
*******Amazon Delivery that caused the most excitement at the house:
These new books will be our up coming family night reads:
We will actually read this one first.
:::::::::::NCIS...Power Down:
Check out the show if you have time . There is even a Dr. Who reference, which made me laugh. A Kojak reference too. I watch/watched both shows.

I had no idea there would be a 4th Peter book! Whoo Hoo!!!
Have you read "In an Instant" by Bob and Leigh Woodruff? It's their life story, but the main idea of the book is to explain how in an instant their lives were changed when Bob was injured in Iraq. I'm not much of a reader, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. I've passed it on to my mom (who is currently enjoying it), and my dad saw it, and is waiting in line to read it. Anyway, I know you read quite a bit and lots of different types of books, so I thought I'd throw it out there. :)
You're gonna love Walden. At the very least it'll help you understand me a little better.
I actually think George Cloney would do a good job too. But Roth is more introspective.
YOu haven't heard my suggestion for who'd plat you yet...
All I know is that your mother would be played by Paula Dean and Uncle Denny and I would just be old clips from the original "rainman" movie. LOL
Happy Thanksgiving, looking forward to working with Aaron and Michael at the tree lot. See you tomorrow night...
