Lollipop's Book Club

So the last month I wrote I was going to try and read some books over the summer and provided a list of summer reading I had found on the internet. After looking on Amazon and at Barnes and Nobles (although I love their books stores, their books are a little pricey) I finally purchased some reads the other night when I was at Target. I decided to buy three books as they were super cheap. Here is what I bought to start off my summer book reading program.

1. Water for Elephants

and

2. Two Charlene Harris books a.k.a. two Sookie Stackhouse books (the first two in the series).

I decided to start with Water for Elephants as I read this week they are making a movie out of this book (of course) with Rob Pattinson (Edward from Twilight) and Reese Witherspoon. It seems to center on the circus. Well, at least what the book covers leads me to believe. I only got a few pages in because I decided to take a bubble bath and read and well, if I wanted the book to remain unwet it is probably best if I don't take it in the tub with me. Instead I took a bubble bath and sang along to iTunes like the inner rockstar that I am.

I have yet to check out the Eagle Rock Library but I did do some research and found out what times it is open. I am glad I did because boy do they ever have the craziest schedule. They are open at different hours each day. Perhaps once I get the reading underway I will go and check out the library. Anyway, wish me luck! With three books I should be a little busy.

Behind Door Number One

Have you ever watched those TV Game shows where they have a couple of doors and behind one is a grand prize? Well, this weekend the hub and I found out what was behind our Door #1. The hubby and I are starting the beginning phases of landscaping our backyard. Our first step, was to clean out the area behind our garage. When we moved in, there was about 2 feet of walking space behind our garage the rest of the area was covered in vines. Vines were growing on the roof and generally it was a mess. Not wanting the vines to take over the roof, we I started to clear out the vines last fall. But after we cut a million vines with only a pair of clippers we gave up and decided to clean out the rest in the spring. Spring came around and we didn't do much until one day when I was sick a few weeks ago, I ran into our gardener. I showed him the mess and asked if he knew of anyone who could come clean it out. I could tell he was actually, quite happy for me to broach the subject of
