Book Swap

I had the pleasure of meeting Myriah Mae during the headband swap. She was my lovely partner. Anywho, she is hosting a book swap over on her blog. Check it out here!

She is fab and this sounds like a great idea. You don't even have to buy a book. Just send whatever you've just finished reading to your partner. Everyone loves a good book, right? I sure do!

So, here's what's on my reading list:

Son of a Witch

Wicked was one of my most favorite books. I heart Gregory Maguire. And I'd like to go to Oz. Sorry, sidetrack.

Twilight



Don't make fun, ok?! I'm a total sucker for a good love- I want to suck your blood story. And I refuse to admit that I've seen the movie seven times. Moving on....

And I miss weddings. So yea. Please don't judge me. And since the hubby isn't home, I can watch David Tutera's show for 8 hours straight on a Sunday. I have a problem.

Something Blue



If you are my swap partner, I promise I want give you Twilight. That is, unless you are team Edward. Then maybe I can be so inclined to share! :)

A Notecard Exchange

I had the pleasure of participating in a notecard exchange with some fellow bloggers hosted by Ashley at A Hasty Life. Ashley is really great about connecting folks in the blogosphere and I made some new bloggy friends in the process!

The ladies that were in my group were:

Sarah from The Quirky Designer

Leann from Join the Gossip

Lindsay from La Georgia Paperie

And here are the beautiful cards I received.

Thank you ladies! So nice to meet you!

What's in your wallet, I mean bag?

My husband got me this bag for two reasons. One, my old green one was falling apart. For real. I had that bad boy since I was 16. And B. It was our engagement anniversary and he felt giving hehe. Anyway, it's my very first professional, grown-up purse and I love love love it. Thanks honey bunny!

Now, on to the fun stuff. I know you all are dying to see what's in my bag, right? Well, just like Ilene did yesterday I will show you what lies in the abyss. First, I have to say thanks to Ashley from A Hasty Life for putting this blog crawl together. Thanks girl!

Ok, here's what's in my bag....I am at work (if the boss asks, I didn't do this on company time!) so please excuse the ugly grey chair...And my desk is way too cluttered to spread stuff out on, but I digress.

1. Poppie Jones coin purse. This little sucker has been through a lot. It's tough and cute, like moi! :)

2. Stamps. I still to this day write handwritten letters and cards. So I need a lot of stamps. Plus the water bill was due, sigh.

3. Goody hair ties. Please note that some are missing. This isn't my fault. I have a kitten named Raven who is OBESSED with hair ties. I find at least three a day in his water bowl. So I need a 20 pack for he and I to share.

4. Wallet- holds my military ID, credit cards, debit card, work ID and what little cash I have left after the Lia Sophia jewelry party I went to last night.

5. Gum. We all know what gum is I imagine. I deal with folks on the daily so this helps.

6. Business card holder. Holds my business cards for work and for my husband's job. If you all are looking for a mechanic, I know a hot one! :)

7. A seashell. No clue. I blame the kitten....

8. Burt's Bees. This stuff is magic.

9. Dot's sunglasses. Not saying they are cheap, but they were $5. I lose sunglasses every week, so I refuse to spend a lot for them. These are big, purple, and fabulous. All three of my favorite qualities!

10. Starbucks giftcard. I teach small children. I need coffee. And lots of it.

11. More Burt's Bees. I love that stuff! This is lotion. Apparently if you like them on facebook you get a free sample. Sweet!

12. Lollipop. For when I get hungry.

This morning I had a kitten in my bag, but was unable to capture the picture, as he is quick. Also, I'm missing my keyfob for work. I think I know why he was in my bag....

Do you have any randomness in your bag? Please share! And be sure to check out what is in Christa's bag tomorrow!
