Today I bought my domain mapping for this word press blog and now I am trying it out to see if it really works.

This could be very interesting.

If this does work then great I won’t have to really change anything about the way I blog using Word Press. How cool could that be?

Today was supposed to be the annual Jaffrey Fireworks.

We were going to go to them and meet our son there with a birthday cake for him to share with his friends. But on Friday we got word that the town officials had cancelled the event due to a bomb threat.

Why is there so many crazy mixed up fools running around in our world who feel that they need to ruin the fun for everyone.

I hope they catch the dude.

This is going to have a big impact on all the area towns, especially the town of Jaffrey.

Every year the town receives about 70% of the proceeds from the fireworks celebration. That comes out to be around a thirty dollar profit from each car load of people entering the Jaffrey airport. The area business will also feel the impact all the way down the chain ending with the Boy Scouts who sell parking spaces to the public.

That’s my rant for the night…

My son had a quiet 25^th birthday this year.

Maybe they will be able to hold the fireworks next year. Hopefully they had not permanently canceled the event.

It is Friday, finally, and I have a new topic to focus on for the next ten weeks.

How about my Top Ten Favorite all time artists. That would be authors. Maybe next round I will pick my favorite musicians or such…

So I am going to start at the bottom of my list and work my way up each week.

For the past year I have been reading a lot of new authors on my Kindle, so instead of picking my favorite of my favorite I want to pick from the books I have read during this past year. This I have to give some thought to, since I have read a lot of really great books on my kindle.

(Linda pulls up her word pad and jots down her favorite books of the year and hides the list in a secret folder.)

Winning Mr. Wrong

byMarie Higgins

Winning Mr. Wrong

Whoever said the quest for love wasn’t comical never met Charlene Randall. Charley is looking for a man who wants to start a family, a man who will take her to the temple. Problem is, she has never dated a man for longer than three months. When she reads an internet article called “Ten Ways to Win Your Man,” she decides to try it on her new coworker, Maxwell Harrington. Max was her crush in high school, but the superstar sports anchorman doesn’t even remember her. Enter ladies’ man Damien Giovianni, Charley’s handsome neighbor, who agrees to help her win Max over. What follows is a hilarious tale of mishaps and misunderstandings where Charley learns that what she really needs could be right in front of her.

Review:

I just loved this book. Not only was it a romance novel but it was funny.

The character Charlene tries a number of ideas on how to get the new guy at work to take notice of her. She thinks he is the guy for her and has kind of assumed that he is a certain type of guy only to find out how wrong she is. She thinks she can read people, especially men and really has not a clue about what can really be hidden underneath the skin.

They say that “beauty is only skin deep…” and Charlene learns that there is more to a person’s character besides their looks and job.

If you haven’t read this book yet and you are looking for a great – funny – romance then look no further.
