Life: We have SNOW!  We usually do not see snow this early and I am so excited!  More and more Christmas lights are going up in the neighbourhoods and we are having great fun getting into the Christmas spirit.  My gifts should have been received by my partners for the Book-lovers Secret Santa Swap and the Book Blogger Holiday Swap.    I need to shop for them both as well as my family.

Family Update: We are all ready for the holidays.  The house is decorated inside and out and looks quite festive.  One month out of the year I listen to the radio when it plays Christmas music 24/7.   Christmas is my favourite holiday.   The gifts are purchased and either wrapped or on the way and all we have left to do is enjoy this wonderous season and purchase stocking stuffers.   The winter dance is Saturday and I know at least one of my three sons is attending.

Saturday Night: We completed our Christmas shopping and enjoyed the sales and had a lovely low stress  shopping experience.   We do buy a lot of gifts on-line, yet some had to be purchased in stores.  We found everyone to be rather friendly.  We finished up with a drive around looking at Christmas lights then back home to watch Christmas themed movies.

Read and Reviewed: Somehow I managed to read and review 11 books which surprises me as the week was so very busy, although the social calender does not really get moving until this coming week.  I read some absolutely fabulous books, take a look, there are many that would be lovely gifts.

If you do not want to wait until Monday to see the entire list for the week, all my reviews are up and as usual I love comments.

Today I will be reading: The Green Age of Asher Witherow by M. Allen Cunningham .  Although I may just take the day off and play in the snow with the guys.

Happy Reading and please feel free to leave comments or suggestions.
