Hi, I'm Anna, and I'm a "bookaholic"....

After about 6 or 7 weekends of fall cleaning, I'm finally ready for a visit from my sister Gloria & her husband Mark who are coming TOMORROW!!!!! (Those of you who have actually been in my one bedroom apartment may be wondering how there could possibly have been 6 or 7 weeks worth of work in here. It really had more to do with my own energy and lack of enthusiasm for cleaning that stretched it out so long.) This weekend will be full of visiting my favorite Cookeville spots, possibly checking out some new ones (always more fun with company), and will be much too short to get it all in!

In the mean time the pile of books waiting patiently for me to read them has grown to include "Fixing Broken Windows" by George L. Kelling and Catherine M. Coles, "From the Ground Up" by Edward E. Lawler III, "Good to Great" by Jim Collins, and a bootleg advanced reading copy of "The Undercover Economist" by Tim Hartford. I'm watching my mailbox for "Class Action" by Laura Leedy Gansler (this book was the basis for the movie "North Country" which is now in theaters. I've not seen to movie, but probably will when it comes out on DVD -- which, judging from the size of my reading pile, should coincide nicely with my actual reading of the book!)

Now that my little apartment is all cleaned, de-cluttered and organized, I feel a bit like the Calvin & Hobbes cartoon above, my winter days packed full of being curled up with a mug of hot cocoa and a book, I'm not sure I'll get it all in before spring!
