Friday Five

1. Still looking for condos for MIL. Really concerned as she can't walk far without being out of breath. She said this is because she's only been out of hospital a couple weeks. I'm not sure but this is proving to be a stressful week. Will be glad when Sunday comes.

2. Contest:

**And I can't forget books now can I?

5. OVERBITE




I enjoyed the voice in this Meg Cabot story that has Meena working for church authorities on getting rid of vampires. I have to admit though I was kind of disappointed toward the end as I felt the ending was anticlimatic and I didn't buy who Meena ends up with. Still, the idea of flesh eating vampires was an intriguing twist. And hey, it's Meg Cabot, who I still love.

THE IRON KING



I've been wanting to read this books for a while and finally decided to read the first book. So far really enjoying it.

**Guilty pleasure:

Hoping to go to the opening of the Orange Co. Fair. Love funnel cake and other fun things. But kind of worried might not go as MIL might not be able to visit her friend. We'll see how it goes.
