I haven't been wanting to post anything of our house because none of our rooms are 100% done...but.....
So this bathroom is not 100% done but I thought I should show it off some. 100% done meaning I need to work on one of the picture frames…and work some some text books ;)
I really wanted to to do something Harry Potter….It really brought back my love of books. Since then I have been on a roll with reading books! I couldn't decide what to do with our bathroom so I decided it was going to be HP!
Come back tomorrow morning to see what I did with it! I have to take pictures first…I haven't yet.
Look forward to:
Harry Potter potion sanitizers
Lumos/Nox
Ministry of Magic
Moaning Myrtle
Spiders
Quidditch
Quotes
Devil's Snare
Candles

I am starting an ibs challenge. Let me get through today - I have a paper due and final project presentation - and I will talk to y'all about it. I did add a page at the top for tracking purposes.
Let's just say that I can not have chocolate, carbonation, and fried foods...ughhh
I decided to partake in a digital book club this month! www.pbfingers.com hosts one every month and for April it is The Book Thief.
I am not a huge fan of writing reviews – you can go to Wikipedia and check that out. I really like to talk about it.
What an interesting book! I am not used to reading a book that isn’t dystopian or Harry Potter. This book is fantastic! It is narrated by DEATH. Yeah, death! I actually had to look it up after reading the first chapter to make sure that’s who I thought it was!
This book is great for those who like books that aren’t like others, those who enjoy historical fiction, and those who want to learn some german ;)
It is about a young girl named Liesel who loses her mother and her brother in a small amount of time and goes to live with her new mama and papa. This book is about her life during the Hitler era…and oh….behind the stories of all the books she steals! I recommend this book to anyone and everyone!!

decided to watch some of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkiban
Probably didn't go to sleep until 1030
So excited!! I had NO idea that this book was coming out in 19 days!!!
Yup, I pre-ordered a book for the very first time this morning! I had a 10$ gift-card that i got from Groupon, so the book was $.79! I decided to get it in a hardback! You can never have enough books! I read Divergent last summer and wrote about it....Here is what I wrote about Divergent!
In other important news,
This song will NOT get out of my head. DARN YOU, SNL! The one in the red jeans looks like my sisters boyfriend, lol. I don't think he'd be pleased if I told him that. It's just his eyes, lol!
Still trying to organize the house, no pics until parts are done!!
J.K. Rowling has a new book coming out! Hold on to your hats, people: the publisher Little, Brown has just put out a press release giving us the title of JK Rowling’s new book… The Casual Vacancy! The book will be out on the 27th September 2012 (worldwide release date) and Little, Brown also provided a plot summary:
When Barry Fairweather dies unexpectedly in his early forties, the little town of Pagford is left in shock.
Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty façade is a town at war.
Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils…Pagford is not what it first seems.
And the empty seat left by Barry on the parish council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity and unexpected revelations?
Blackly comic, thought-provoking and constantly surprising, The Casual Vacancy is J.K. Rowling’s first novel for adult
Matt says they eat our bugs...fine...but I rather not have 100 spiders hanging out in our backyard. RIP baby spiders...next time go find someone else's house and stop freaking me out.
In other news....
