I had a tennis meet yesturday, so I read for about an hour in the car. Also, I am at work, bored, reading. *Im not acutally lifeguarding when im reading, FYI :) *
Anyway, I just got to the part in the book that the prologue was about. It explains why she got arrested, for dumpster diving, and that she didnt get in trouble because her rich ex-boyfriend paid a lot of money to keep her out of trouble. She then goes to her Ex's house, which she is redecorating. She feels like she shouldnt be there just to talk, but he got her out of going to jail, so she has to be nice and talk to him.
I kind of hope she gets back with her Ex. Her husband has a plan to divorce her in a couple weeks, and I think she still loves her ex. I think that since she has changed her spending ways, though, her husband is going to decide to stay with her. That is my perdiction, and I am excited to see if I am correct! I will probably finish the book over the next five hours here at the pool.

penny pinchers!
On tuesday night I read for an hour in my new book. The main character finds out her husband is in fact planning on leaving her for his co-worker, but wants to wait until their only daughter graduates high school. The main character then realized that she has NO money, so she needs to save up some before she is a single woman.
I read tonight for an hour as well. She joins a group called the penny pinchers. The group goes through all of her debts, and she realizes that she is deep in debt. She comes up with a plan to cut $500 out of her weekly budget. Her husband is so confused as to why she is doing this, when she has never cared about budgets before.
This is a good book, and I am very curious to see how it ends. I plan on reading a lot of sunday when I am at the lovely pool again for 8 hours!

new book!
Seriously, I do not think anyone understands how boring it is to be a lifeguard...at an INDOOR pool. I always liked lifeguarding, but mainly because of the sun, and being outside. UG! A positive to being so bored at work, though, is plenty of reading time.
I started a new book, I honestly just picked because it has piggy banks on the cover. I collect piggy banks, because I grew up on a pig farm, and I LOVE pigs. :)
Anyway, the book is titled, Penny Pinchers Club. I have read about two hours today. It is a really interesting book, actually. It talks about a woman who was almost engaged to a rich man, whose family was compared to the Kennedy's. Then, one day, she meets a gardener who she instantly falls in love with. Her rich boyfriend is about to propose, and she says if he would have done it just a few weeks earlier, she would have said yes. Anyway, she falls in love with the poor gardener. The prolouge is about her being in jail though, for going through people's trash to find things that are valuable. Also, it says she is going to be getting divorced. I have not read enough to where the prolouge makes sense, so I am interested to see what happens!
I have to go back on the stand shortly, which means I cannot read or be on the computer, so I probably should stop typing.
I think that this is going to be a really good book, full of drama, not much substance. I will read for another hour today while on break at work, and I will update what I read in my next post!

VALENTINES DAY
Happy Valentines Day!
I just got the biggest bear I have ever seen :) so excited! Kind of funny, I filled Jacob's car with 50 balloons, then 15 or so different red things, such as a basketball (we needed one!), soap (he is too lazy to buy it) candy, candy, candy! Food, Pop, all sorts of stuff. Then I cleaned his car, which ws sooo dirty! I vaccumed it and everything...BUT he one-uped me. He hardcore cleaned my room, and showered me with gifts. Wow, I sound like I am bragging, I am not trying to, just excited :)

Anyway, reading..
I finished my book this week. I would NOT recommend it. It made me so mad because it built up this big long story of the main character being married, but she ran away from him because he beat her, then she fell in love with two men who happened to be best friends, but one was married, and so on and so on. Then it just came to a quick end, kind of like those movies that just----stop. So annoying to me! There was drama, but it was quick and painless, not real world at all. I read about an hour to finish my book. I got a new book from the library, and I am excited to get deeper into it. I then started reading a book my mom sent me, but I am not that far.
For me, it is not hard to read two hours a week, it is harder to remember what I read this week compared to the last!
Well, it is 2:23 AM, probably should hit the sack! Too excited to sleep, but I will try!

cant sleep..
yes, it is 4 am. This either makes me: hardcore, total loser, or really dumb. :) Anyway, I just read for an hour. This book is so dramatic, but of course now I need to know what happens. I do NOT recommend it though. Today Cameron's husband she ran from started stalking her, not cool! He beat her and so she ran away, and started a new life. Im sure this is what I am going to have dreams about, joy!
Also during the week I read for an hour at the ER, (kidney issues :S ) and an hour at the doctor's office. I had good quality waiting room time this week!
I do not know what I am going to read next. I kind of want a biography... any suggestions?
