I almost didn't make it here today! It's been an insanely busy week that's going to continue into today. Life This week has been a combination of busy at work and busy at home. The kids did not have school on Monday, which is also typically my busiest day at work. So when Monday ended, I felt as if I sucked at both life and work. The rest of the week was better - at least I was able to keep work and life separate. This weekend just happens to be one of those when I have so much to do - thanks to the many tasks and chores deferred from previous days/weekends. We were getting quotes for some home improvement projects, had to start prepping rooms for my parents' arrival next month (mainly because I still haven't moved my daughter's online school materials out of the room from the Fall school year), and do lots of seasonal shopping.

The Chopin Manuscript by Jeffery Deaver
(Audio book): Not much progress on this one yet! I hope to complete it this week! 
The Help by Kathryn Stockett:
One of the must-reads of 2010 finally in my hands!! I had been waiting for this book from last October, so it definitely feels good to finally be able to read it. So far, I am just a few pages in, but it's pretty engrossing!
The 13th Hour by Richard Doetsch:
This thriller is told in reverse! The protagonist goes back in one hour increments to prevent a crime. The synopsis of this book is very interesting, and I had been on-hold for this one since it released in December.
Precious / Push by Sapphire:
This is another book I've been itching to read for some time. Only 192 pages. So I'll be hoping to read this one also this week!
