Sunday: News

by Nina on March 22, 2009

The “BOOKS ON MY DESK” section is officially on the homepage! You can now keep track of what I’m reading. Moving forward, I will share bits and pieces with you as I find interesting tidbits. There are days I go to these books for motivation, others for inspiration and sometimes just to relax. Each image will direct you to Amazon.com where you can purchase the book if you would like.

I’ve told you this before {and I’ll tell you again}… I don’t read books front to back. I use them as little resource guides to everyday life.

Hope you enjoy!

*While we are on the subject of books, check out this great blog I stumbled upon yesterday… Smart Bitches, Trashy Books All the Romance, None of the Bullshit

…………………………………………

On another note, I’m going to make a statement that you may or may lot like but either way, you should listen. I’m going to say what I would say to my real-life friends…

Here’s the deal… We are adults. Don’t be hypocritical. Be nice. Respect others opinions. There are lots and lots of different kinds of blogs, if you don’t like what someone is writing then don’t read it, it’s that simple. Respect is a non-negotiable in my book. It’s an attractive characteristic… some should try it on for size!

Remember, No one likes a Luann.

Good book picks!

I teach high school history (and I sneak history into my college level sociology courses too whenever possible), and I am CONSTANTLY seen consulting Don’t Know Much About History. It’s REALLY a great book!

you are so right… people get their hanky pankies in a wad over someone’s opinion and then go back and write posts that are mean-spirited.

i’m looking forward to seeing what you’re not reading from cover to cover. and i’m looking forward to seeing you!

“Remember, No one likes a Luann.”

Amen, sister! And I whole heartedly agree, if you don’t like a blog (or the blogger) don’t leave comments. I don’t see the point. Life is to rich, too fabulous, too exciting to waste time on such tasks.

But this blog (which is new and amazing to me) is a place I am happy to frequent. Thank you SO much for swinging by Venti. It is nice to “meet” another go-go-gettum type girl!
