Reading List.





Seeing as I am on "winter" break as the school terms it (though it is still Christmas break in my heart), I decided I could try and catch up on some enjoyable reading. On my list:

Crazy Love--my husband's sis-in-law recommended it as she has been reading it recently. (Update: I started. Am enjoying. It is thought-provoking and insightful. Also: It is also something I can read a little at a time and come back too, which is good because there is a lot to digest inside of it.)

The Christmas Sweater--M & D said its a fantastic little story; and one that anyone can't relate to. I read the first two chapters during Thanksgiving... and it was definitely tempting while I was catching up on reading for school before finals. Anyway, it is what I will probably tackle first! (Update: Tackled. Enjoyed. Recommend. And... it won't take you very long). 

Yay! for a holly-day break. Christmas begins on the 25th and will be celebrated until the 6th of January (for Epiphany... when the Church celebrates the Wise Men's arrival to see the baby Jesus.  So even though commercialized America only celebrates tomorrow(the 24th) and the next day(the 25th), I am only beginning the festivities and feeling the joy in my heart!) ...which also probably explains why I, only today, got our Christmas card out! Our first one. :) Hopefully the recipients enjoy them.

the best ideas of 2008 (sadly none are mine)

This is a great article... 

The best idea I had in 2008 was to get married... and Mr. Ruggedly Handsome finally agreed! (You see I had the idea for some time before he concurred.) 

Enjoy... (goal for 2009: Make the list)

to Tutor or not to Tutor...that is [my] question

I'm in a bit of a bind. I need to decide whether or not to tutor for CP next semester. I have a bit of other things on my plate between AL, writing a Journal article (in its publishable entirety, or so I hope), Ethics (likely), among other things, and... I'm still adjusting to living with Mr. Ruggedly Handsome...

What's a girl to do?  (I'm not looking for answers here, since Kelley is my only avid reader, and at this point it is probably not even possible to be an avid reader).

Let the blogging begin...

It is officially one week until I will be finished with exams. That is when the blogging will begin (at least in posts longer than three sentences).
