Meet our new Chihuahua puppy Chloe

I have been wanting a Chihuahua for a long time, ever since my Pomeranian passed away a few years ago.
 Well I finally found the perfect puppy. I wasn't planning on getting a puppy, but I knew I wanted a female. One of my friends Chihuahua had puppies and I got one. She is now 10 weeks old, I have had her for 2 weeks and so much fun.
 Of course she is a baby still and is a lot of work, but so worth it. She has the sweetest personality. She seems to love everyone in my family.  These pictures are from the first few days home. She is so small, weighs about a pound.

Reading, love to read and love to get Free Books


Yes I love to read. I am kind of picky about what I read, but I love to read. I have found a web site called Goodreads. Their web site is Goodreads. The best part about this site that I love, beside the reviews is that they have a page called Giveaways. I have won at least 12 books, free books that is, all I have to do is read them and review them, so cool. I chose the books I want, meaning there is a list of books and you enter in the drawing for the book and if you win they will send you the free book. I have so far received 8 books. And one book I didn't win the author sent me a free link to my Kindle to read it. I am so excited about this. I don't usually win anything and to free books is awesome. I have been doing this for less than a month.
Here is a picture of some of the books I have received; 


So far I have read Screenshot, very intense Techno Thriller,The Impersonator which was a really great mystery. I have also read I Don't Know, an interesting self help book about admitting when you don't know.
I am right now reading Aunty Lee's Delights, seems like a good book. And the book I am reading on my Kindle is called  Once Upon a RockStar, another book that the author asked me to read and review. 


I have always loved to read, but haven't been reading much until I received my Kindle from my son Matt for Christmas. I have found many free books from Amazon.com and mostly read those. I didn't think a Kindle was for me, but it. 
Here is a Free book on Amazon.com Murder in the South of France
I dont know how long it is free but this can give you an idea if your interested.
Well that is what is happening in my life, tonight I hope to work in my scrap room. 
Thanks for reading.
