Both cats tunneled under the tissue so I've also got plenty of cat-bottom photos that are a hoot. :) Thanks! I'm working on trying to finish up my second book but I have to go shop. Our microwave oven died and we have just discovered we don't know how to live without one! <br /><br />Happy New Year to you and I wish you the best for a happy, safe and joyful 2011!Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-78203050165370382642011-01-02T11:13:27.914-06:002011-01-02T11:13:27.914-06:00Cute kitty photos!

I hope you love it! :)<br /><br />Inside a Book,<br /><br />Thanks! I'm actually working on a post about my goals for 2011 but since one of them is "Blogging won't have priority," or something to that effect, I'm just taking my time, hacking away at it. I've been thinking more than bothering to sit down to write my thoughts, lately. <br /><br />Cool. I like the thought that I keep you motivated. Thanks for telling me that. That is a definite warm fuzzy. :)<br /><br />Wendy,<br /><br />Thank you! This should be an eventful year for you, yes? I hope it's a fabulous one! And, thanks. The kitties often run away when they hear me turn on the camera, but not when they're immersed in something crucial and shredding tissue paper is very, very important.

I really loved the admission that you might not get around to goals and stats til July!! Too true and funny - I think I may abide by that myself. I guess I just do not think of those things hard enough or often enough. I have got to become a more productive thinker!<br /><br />I love your lists of books read.

I think I'll print it out and hang it on a wall!<br /><br />Brittanie,<br /><br />I think when I dropped by, you hadn't yet reviewed Two Tickets to the Christmas Ball. It's cute, but not one I decided to hang onto for a reread (I did keep Let it Snow).<br /><br />It helps knowing someone else is battling the book piles -- I feel the same. I got a lecture from my minimalist eldest son about my clutter, today. I told him I'm working on it, MYOB. LOL<br /><br />It is sooo hard to catch up once you fall behind on reviews. I recommend just writing a bunch of mini reviews. I've been looking back and realizing my monthly summaries -- just 2 or 3 sentences, max -- are just as satisfying but not as time-consuming. I'm going to shoot for short, this year. <br /><br />I haven't even been to my reader, today! One of my resolutions is going to be, "Live first, blog later," meaning I plan to spend more time working out, reading and purging than blogging, this year. It's time for a change. :)<br /><br />Bellezza,<br /><br />Ooooh, really? I just love that quote. I'm seriously thinking I'll print it out and frame it. It's inspiring. <br /><br />I wouldn't feel bad about only reading 3 books in December. It's a busy-busy month. I was really pushing it to get to 10. <br /><br />Aw, I just love a kitty on the belly. Miss Isabel spent some time sleeping on my belly, last night. I have to remind her it's a nice warm spot, sometimes, because neither of my girls are really lap kitties but just show her a warm spot and wait . . . she'll return. I'm so glad you discovered the joy of cats!!Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-56704347604842344482011-01-01T22:18:51.233-06:002011-01-01T22:18:51.233-06:00I just heard that quote from Gaiman himself as Gav...I just heard that quote from Gaiman himself as Gavin on Page 247 had a you tube clip on her blog. It's so inspirational! I'm amazed at what you read in December alone; myself, I only managed three. Three lousy books. I'm looking forward to your list for 2010. It's grea to see the kitty picture you painted behind Fiona. As to my kitty, Minou in particular, she took a nap on my stomach as I lay on the couch with The Enchanted April. A nap before bedtime. I wonder how we'll sleep tonight. Blessings on 2011, Bookfool!Bellezza https://www.blogger.com/profile/18073864187188953633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-58091389648811090322011-01-01T21:58:52.800-06:002011-01-01T21:58:52.800-06:00We both read Two Tickets to the Christmas Ball las...We both read Two Tickets to the Christmas Ball last month. lol :)<br /><br />I love the fact we are both purging books, it makes a little easier at least for me and encouraging.<br /><br />I need to get caught on reviews from last year. lol I never finished them and they are review books. Bad Brittanie! <br /><br />I am in the process of figuring out which reading challenges to do and writing the posts for them for this weekend hence all the blog posts from me. Sorry in advance for crowing your reader. :)<br /><br />Happy New Year!Brittaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00756341697752152164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-82095674974172636172011-01-01T21:56:43.363-06:002011-01-01T21:56:43.363-06:00What a wonderful quote.
