Mid-way Meme-
1. What are you reading right now?I'm between books right now. I'll be reading with Amber (9) before she goes to bed and the book'll be her choice. After that, I think I'll start The Guns of Avalon by Roger Zelazny.

Our Anniversary
Today is our Tenth Anniversary. We actually celebrated yesterday because my husband loves me and knew I was planning on doing the Read-a-Thon today. Isn't he sweet? He puts up with me and encourages me all the time. It has been a wonderful ten years and he truly is my best friend. It's a shame, though, that we can't have some kind of party where people give us more sheets and towels....
