New blog

I just found a fun blog for chick lit lovers called www.chicklitcentraltheblog.blogspot.com.  The title is called "the place where people can discuss chick lit books, read reviews, meet authors and win new books!"  Since I'm a big fan of chick lit, this blog looks like it'll be right up my street!  Check it out!

2012 Reading Challenge

I signed up to try a 2012 Twisted Tales Reading Challenge offered by Betsy Bling Books. Check out bestybling.blogspot.com for details.  I found out about this challenge because the author of the website, Charlie Courtland, is a friend of mine on www.goodreads.com.

Be Thankful

          Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire,
          If you did, what would there be to look forward to?

          Be thankful when you don't know something
          For it gives you the opportunity to learn.

          Be thankful for the difficult times.
          During those times you grow.

          Be thankful for your limitations
          Because they give you opportunities for improvement.

          Be thankful for each new challenge
          Because it will build your strength and character.

          Be thankful for your mistakes
           They will teach you valuable lessons.

          Be thankful when you're tired and weary
          Because it means you've made a difference.

          It is easy to be thankful for the good things.
          A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who are
          also thankful for the setbacks.
         
         GRATITUDE can turn a negative into a positive.
          Find a way to be thankful for your troubles
          and they can become your blessings.
