Back in 2008 I listened to Water for Elephants and thought it was a great story.
I always get excited when they make a movie from one of the books I've read.  I'm anxious to see who they pick to play each part and I must say I did not expect these two actors to be the choices.  When I listened to the book I expected them to be closer in age, and I'm sorry, I am NOT a big Robert Pattinson fan.  I didn't get into the Twilight series (even thought that author wrote one of my favorite books). 

I do love Reece Witherspoon.  She was also in Just Like Heaven which was based on another book I read, "If Only It Were True" by Marc Levy.  The book was cute but I haven't seen the movie to compare yet.  Honestly I read the book around 2001 so I couldn't compare the two unless I re-read it. 

Have you been to see the Water For Elephants?  Did you like it?  Are you one of the few who have read it and can compare them?  I would love to hear from you.

Hi all!!

I'm back. I started a new job about 2 1/2 years ago and when I started getting full time hours my reading and blogging dropped off. I miss both so I have decided to keep my sanity I must make sure I have time to do both.

So here I am.

It was a rough year. I lost my mom quite suddenly and unexpectedly. My family, that I thought was the greatest ever, turned out to be users and underhanded. My sister has been my biggest support (aside from my kids and hubby)

We moved from North Carolina to Michigan 14 years ago so I could be closer to my family and mom, leaving my dad and sister behind. My hubby and kids are not happy here, so we have decided to move back to NC.


So here we are...almost June, and trying to sell our place, get jobs, and move back down south by early August at the latest.
Stressed? A little. I feel this is what God wants for us, so I gotta have faith that things will fall into place. My hubby wants to move so bad he's promised to get me a color nook if we move this summer!


On a side note...My sister says karma will get our aunt and brother for the crap they've done. I have NEVER witnessed justice coming around and kicking the rightful person right in the bahookie....have any of you? Share your story, give me hope, cause I am sick and tired of people getting away with so much crap.
