Tuesday Me-Likeys

For a loooong time I've wanted to do something consistent;

something special that I would do once a week.

And after looking through some old blog posts, I found something I did called

"TUESDAY ME-LIKEYS"--cue post--

And that's what I'm going to start doing!

I'll have a theme for each Tuesday

and I'm just going to run with it. If you want to do it on your blog too (which would be amaz-zuh-zing), then leave a comment on mine with like a link--so I can see your awesome post-- and leave a link back to me on your post.

THIS TUESDAY THE THEME IS--drum roll--

At a Loss With Books

"Books are the carriers of civilization…They are companions, teachers, magicians, bankers of the treasures of the mind. Books are humanity in print."- Barbara W. Tuchman

What a cool quote huh?

And I miss this...I miss reading. I really do enjoy books but unfortunately I haven't been able to find any good books in a long time. So with this in mind I must ask you: what are some of your favorite books? HELP!

PS: I have read all the Twilight books- please don't suggest these. hehe. They're pretty good books.. I enjoyed them. :)

Just Another Quote for the Day

"Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the ones who treat you right. Forget about the one's who don't. Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a second chance, grab it with both hands. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it."

Dream Quote

"When you have a dream you've got to grab it and never let go."

– Carol Burnett

Quote for the Day
