Where have I been??

Last week was busy getting used to having school again. Then Saturday I picked up my copy of Breaking Dawn by Stephenie Meyer and that was it. I read every single extra minute I could. I mean I did take my hubby shopping Saturday to pick out a gift for his birthday this week, but after several hours and many stores he couldn't find anything. We are thinking of going to Memphis this weekend to hopefully find something.

I finished Breaking Dawn last night after 11 p.m. It was exciting and sad because Meyer says it is the last in her Twilight series of books. I am happy to know how it ends but I have the same feeling I had after reading the last Harry Potter book, I will miss my friends. That is how I feel about my favorite characters in books, they are my friends.

I have also been reading alot about Ann Boleyn. I watch the movie, The Other Boleyn Girl, a few weeks ago and found it rather interesting. So I picked up the book at the library along with a biography about Ann. The book was much better than the movie. Today I picked up a book by Julia Fox, Jane Boleyn: The True Story of the Infamous Lady Rochford. She was the wife of Ann's brother, George.

I have a habit of doing this. I find something interesting in a movie or online and I have to read everything I can find about it. My family finds it odd I think, but I love to learn about new things. I especially like to learn about history. I hope someday my children have a love for knowledge like mine.

Anywho, Poogie had to have two of her baby teeth pulled that were crowding her permanent teeth on Monday. She went through it great. The dentist thought she might be sore and have some swelling because the baby teeth had rather deep roots, but she didn't have a lick of trouble. I am glad she is a lot like me in the area healing well when it comes to dental issues. She also manages pain much better than her brother. I was so proud of how well she did during the ordeal.

Well, tomorrow is my day at the dentist. Hopefully by this time next week my dental issues will be over for a while. We'll see.
