In My Mailbox (November 13, 2011)

In My Mailbox is a weekly meme hosted by The Story Siren. Anyone can participate in IMM and you are not limited to only sharing books that arrive via your mailbox. You can also share books that you've bought or books that you've gotten at the library. If interested please click the link above and sign up!

I'M BACK!! LOL..I know it has been some time since I have done this meme. My weekends have been a bit full and I couldn't find the time to do this one! Now that the winter is descending upon me, my weekends are now spent in the warmth of my house with a cup of coffee...:D

August Recap and RAK

Here we are again…another month has gone by! August was really busy for me. A lot of visiting with family and finishing small projects on the house. We sold our trailblazer and after hunting around found a cute little convertible to drive (we will see how it is in the winter…LOL)

Another project that has kept me really busy (as you can tell by the lack of book read this month) is a history book on my city. Arcadia Publishing contacted the Becker County History Museum and asked if we would do this and since I help out there I immediately jumped at the chance to help! Pretty exciting and a lot of information to wade through. The last few nights has been working on captions for all the pictures. We have already submitted the cover art and it will be interesting to see the result.

Here is what else happened on the blog this month:
