1 pm. I Have to get mini me ready for school for tomorrow, so I already hit my sister's barbeque. After I am finished with her hair I will continue with Dragonfly in Amber.

[Ruth Noemi]

1:44 P.M.-Going on my new daily walk and trying to read Little Women.

[Corey]

10:24 p.m. Had a tough couple of days, my Aunt who just had back surgery had quite a scare. She started having seizures and had trouble breathing. She was moved into ICU and it turns out that she had pneumonia and also an infection in her body. And she was also running a high fever and her blood pressure was very high. For the past couple of days we thought we were gonna lose her. But I went to see her today and the doctor says her fever is going down and hopefully tomorrow she'll be out of the ICU. She's also starting to get cranky so that's a good sign, means she wants to get out of the hospital, LOL! But she seems to be getting her color back, and she's starting to eat more which is good. She sure had me so worried I haven't gotten hardly any sleep the past couple nights, but I think we'll sleep better tonight knowing that she's getting better.

9:34PM Have had the pleasure of reading most of today except for the time I was in the pool since it was 100 today LOL It was a nice swim. I am enjoying Voyager so much right now that I am finding it hard to put it down.

Corey I am glad your aunt is on the mend.

[Darcy]

Corey, i hope she gets better soon & her body is well rested!

[Janelle]

Corey, I am glad to hear that your Aunt is doing better.

[Janelle]

8:40 a.m. Janie, I cannot wait for the heat to break here. On the flip side The Eagles let go of Tim Tebow (typical). I can wait for football season to start. I will catch up on Voyager in the middle of the month and glad to hear that it is going well :^)

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

7:47AM I am getting read to record some videos and then read. I switched off of Voyager to read Fallen. I had a hard time putting Voyager down though and read straight through 200 pages yesterday. It is so good.

Janelle I love football as well! WOOT!

[Janelle]

10:15 Just read that Stephen King will be receiving The National Medal of Arts from President Obama tomorrow. :^)

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

9:26PM Have gotten some more read today in Fallen. Have a friend who is having some issues so she came over for a bit for some advice. So I will be reading some more before bed.

Wow that is awesome about King receiving this medal of arts, thanks for sharing Janelle!

[Janelle]

9:45 am. I thought you would like to hear that Janie :^) I cannot wait for the movies to start airing, as it is his birthday month :^) I would like to see The Mist, Storm of the Century and Pet Cemetery. I enjoy Fred Gwynn's performance.

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

9:41AM I am going to try and finish Fallen today, we will see. Still trying to get used to the house being so quiet now that school started back and Kay is not here. Sometimes I enjoy the peace and other times I hate the quiet.

Janelle, I loved The Mist so much! I preferred the book ending over that depressing movie ending. LOL I was like NOOOOO!

[Mary Beth]

11:30 pm Reading Inkspell after a very busy day.

[Janelle]

8:05 am Janie, I am going to make The Mist one of my next King grabs along with Carrie and Misery. I'm glad to hear that there is a difference. The ending of the movie was one to stick with a person...

[Mikana]

It's 10:21pm and i'm trying to work on my 200+ to read list, down to a 10 to read Sooner list - I have the Mist on that short list.

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

7:49AM Had a great night with my family with not much reading time. Got my hair cut finally for an upcoming wedding out of state and a visit with my family. Plan on reading today though in a buddy read with of Inkspell with Mary.

Janelle and Mikana, you should both totally read The Mist if you haven't. I loved that book and it was pretty creepy.

[Mikana]

The Mist made my shortlist, along with Gerald's Game and Clive Barker's Hellhound Heart. I have no idea which I'll read first, but I've been reading mainly young adult book's of late, so I've been looking for something different to read after I finish Septimus Heap

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

Oh what do you think of Septimus Heap? I really enjoyed that series a lot. I read the whole series last year.

[Holly]

10:25 A.M. Almost time to take my daughter to school and go to the library. I hope they have the books I want to check out this time....

[Corey]

4:52 PM I have some really sad news, my Aunt had to go back into the ICU, she spiked a high fever so she went into the ER, and it turns out she has a tear in her esophagus, which explains why she hasn't eaten anything, and we don't think she'll be able to withstand surgery again. The only other option would be a feeding tube but we know she won't tolerate it because she's one stubborn woman, HAHA! But anyway, my Mom made a very difficult decision, and right now there's Hospice involved, the feeding tube was a last resort, and surgery is out of the question. So all we can do is make her comfortable. But I'm asking everybody on Goodreads to please pray for my Aunt. We have lost so many family members in not even 2 years, it's been so hard.

[Janelle]

Corey, You yoyr Aunt and your family are in my prayers Corey. I'm so sorry to hear that.

[Holly]

So sorry to hear about your aunt Corey. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

You're welcome.

Corey I am sorry to hear about your family. Just know that you and them especially your aunt are in my thoughts and prayers.

[Corey]

4:25PM This morning around 6:30 my Aunt passed away, my Mom stayed with her until the very end. I wish that I would have gone up there with her, I just didn't expect it to happen so fast, I'm kicking myself right now, I feel so guilty. But she's not suffering anymore and she's in a better place with all the other loved ones we've lost. My Mom and I are saddened and she will be missed but we will hold onto the happy memories of her.

[Janelle]

Corey,
Although no words can really help to ease the loss you bear,
just know that you are very close in every thought and prayer.

[Mary Beth]

Corey I am sorry to hear about your aunt passing away. You and your family are in my prayers.

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

Corey I am so very sorry to hear there was a loss in your family. I was out of town so I missed your posts until now. My thoughts are with you and your family in this time of great sadness. You are all in my prayers.

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

9:12AM Well I and my family are all safely home after a very busy weekend with family. My niece is now married and I have to say she was absolutely breathtaking. We ran into some snags while trying to get set up for the wedding, and we were all exhausted, but I would do it all again. Everything was beautiful.

So now I am just trying to recuperate and get my thoughts together to write a couples of reviews, and get this online stuff done. LOL We have to run into town today since there is next to nothing in this house to eat. LOL

[Janice]

Very sorry to hear your news Corey.

[Corey]

10:42 p.m. Well we had my Aunt's funeral today, it was very tough and very emotional, especially for my Mom because it was her sister, but I was right by her side and we pulled through. We'll be heading back home at some point tomorrow morning, we just checked back into our hotel room, and we're all really tired. The funeral went extremely well and we will all remember the good memories of my Aunt.

[Holly]

Sorry for your loss Corey.

[Holly]

10:12 P.M. Almost time for bed; have to get up early for work tomorrow. Have a good night everyone!

[Corey]

Holly wrote: "Sorry for your loss Corey."

Thanks Holly, if I was talking to you face to face I'd give you a hug, LOL! So I'm sending one over the internet.

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

7:59AM Have plans to go out today and get grilling food stuff. LOL And then going to read my afternoon away! (fingers crossed)

[Corey]

9:20 p.m. Had kind of a lazy day, it was raining really hard, the streets were pretty much flooded, so we stayed indoors. My Mom and I watched the whole original Star Wars Trilogy and just had some munchies. And I also got some big news, tomorrow's my birthday, I'm gonna be 23. My Mom is planning on taking me out to eat at one of my favorite restaurant's, Longhorn Steakhouse, can't wait!

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY COREY!! Hope you have a wonderful day today. How wonderful that your mom is taking you out. YAY!

Thank you Janie.

5:38 p.m. I'm chilling with some bossa nova while I read.

[Corey]

5:30PM I'm so mad right now, sorry everybody, I just have to vent, I won't use any bad language. My boss and I were getting ready to close up the shop we work in and we did cash up and were ready to head out and this lady comes in to shop and I said to her we're getting ready to close up and she said she wouldn't be long so I just say okay. Then she buys something worth 50 cents, so she paid me 1 dollar for it and I took it and since we already did cash up we wouldn't have been able to give her the change without screwing up the cash up, so I felt bad and wanted to do a nice thing, I had a couple quarters, in my pocket (or I thought I did) so I gave it to her as change, and she flips out because I gave her only one quarter, and I thought I had 2 and gave both of them to her, and I kept trying to convince her I thought I had 2 quarters but she wouldn't let it go. I handled it very well, even though I wanted to jump over the counter and strangle her. I'm just kicking myself for trying to be nice and this is the thanks I get.

Again I apologize, I just needed to vent before I exploded.

[Holly]

Sorry to hear that Corey. At least it's over now.

[Corey]

Thanks Holly, yeah me too. Some people are just so friggin rude.

[Holly]

You're welcome. I know what you mean; I deal with it all the time at work. Drives me nuts.

[Andrea]

Corey, it is a shame that some people have so much ugliness in them. You handled yourself very well. Be proud of that.

[Corey]

Thank you Andrea, that makes me feel better. Yes it is a shame.

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

I think I would have insisted on being closed. But it would have been the same result. People need to know that this world does not revolve around them. GAH!

Well we did put up the closed sign up before doing cashup, but apparently she didn't get the message. I tell you Janie, some people are just idiots, HAHA!

[Janie, Group Owner & Book Addict]

What more does she need to tell her you were closed? GAH People just amaze me sometimes.
