Just Passing the Time

So, in an attempt to pass the time before the wedding and grad school notifications go out, I decided that reading would be the best way to keep my anxiety down. Basically, I'm hoping to acquire a huge pile of books that will keep me busy for the next three weeks. I've found that the best way to actually do this is Ebay! Right now, I'm reading "Moon Shell Beach", by Nancy Thayer, and I got the book hard back, basically new, for $4.00!



I've found that books with beach settings, or forest settings, calm me down the most (even though I love suspensful ones too. My favorite was "The Hunger Games", by Suzanne Collins. BOTH OF THEM, you won't be able to put them down). I enjoy the author's description of being outside, and the feelings associated with it. I really love Luanne Rice, and she had Moon Shell Beach on her recommended list. In the book, one of the women owns a chocolate shop on Nantucket. I always love reading books like this. I sometimes wish I could own a bakery, or a flower shop, or even a bed and breakfast by the ocean. Eh, maybe someday ;). I have always wanted to go to Nantucket though, maybe Kurt and I could go sometime!

I also am going to try to kick working out into high gear now that the wedding is two months away! I went running yesterday, and it was freezing. Snow was still on the ground too, but it was fun. Made me feel much more relaxed.

Dress fitting tonight!!
