I am ready for summer to begin. My kids get out of school this Thursday June 5th! My Wedding Anniversary is Wednesday and it is making me feel old because it will be our 20th. :D It is hard for me to believe that it has been that long, yet at the same time, I can't remember a time when I haven't been married.
I have a slew of books to read when we go to camp. I can't wait! For example, I still haven't read the last Mercy Thompson book. I had it pre-ordered and received it when the book came out but I just haven't had a chance to read it yet. :-(
Just a heads up for any new followers, those of you that frequent my blog already know, that summer finds me at camp a lot. :-) While I am away, I'll try to pop in as much as I can. Miki and VampedChik have both agreed to play hostess in my absence so you will all be in good hands. :-)
If you are new to the CIG, here is what you need to know:
I love to talk about books. The best way for me to do that is to have someone to talk with. This is were you come in. The Rafflecopter below will be updated frequently with new posts. For every post you leave a comment on and enter into the Rafflecopter, you get one point. For every post that you are asked to share, you receive three points. When I say share, I mean on social media, like or share on Facebook, +1 on Google+, Tweet, pinterest, etc... you get the idea. ;-)
You can enter once a month or every day, as often as you like.
The prize is a book of your choice from
those mentioned, featured, pictured, or posted about by me in some way
during the month of June. The prize will be awarded from TBD. Unless
the winner prefers ebook format, then they may choose to receive it from
Amazon or B&N.
The contest is open to all followers age thirteen and older provided The Book Depository ships to you.
Now here are some questions for you:
What are you looking forward to doing this summer?
What is one summer activity that you would like to try that you've never done before?
What do you plan to read over the summer?
Answer one or all of the questions or just leave a comment. Don't forget to enter it in the Rafflecopter!
Good Luck! :-)

Happy Anniversary a bit early! :) 20 years is awesome!
ReplyDeleteI will do my best to be around while your gone! It's going to be pretty busy around my house for like the next month with all the repairs we need to get done. But I'm hoping that they wont need me to much for them and I can just go and hide in a corner somewhere with my computer and a book. :)
I don't really have anything planned for this summer but to try and just relax and knock out some more books from my tbr pile. :)
don't stress ^^ i will try to do the best parner/ backup so if ever you can't comeone day i will come more.
DeleteWe do have the luck to be able to surpervise the whole day thanks to the time difference between us two so relax like you hope ,; come when you can and i do hope you will be able to hide with good books
:) It should be fine.
DeleteThanks guys you are the best! I hope that you will not stress over it. I appreciate the help whether it is once a day or every other day that you get a chance to visit.
Deleteno stress but pleasure to be able to help you^^ don't worry
DeleteWe're here anyways so its no biggie for us. :) Plus anything we can do to help you out is always nice.
Deleteexactly^^
DeleteThanks! Amber if I don't respond to your posts it is because I am no longer receiving emails when you post. It only seems to be you. I don't understand it.
DeletePlease don't think that I am ignoring you!
LOL No I think its me! ;) I keep getting emails saying mail delivery error, so its probably connected. I have no clue why though all of a sudden? But no worries! I still love ya! :)
Deletei will try to think about what could be the reason for that and see if i can help ( me it was only for lack of time but as soon as i get more i will go back on precedent ones^^)
DeleteIts something to do with Comcast. I read some of the error email and its nothing that I can do. I think its because I'm on my laptop? I don't know though.
Deleteoki after checking i don't receive your email either by the way ( and i'm sure i've suscribed) i do read your post via bloglovin though so it's for that i didn't really
Deleteregistered i wasn't getting the email
perhaps think about another provider?
I don't have Comcast. It was just saying that for why these posts weren't going through.
DeleteHappy anniversary ( in advance) it doesn't make you old at all but utterly loyal and loved^^
ReplyDeleteDon't worry we will take a good care of your visitors.
What activity i never tried but could want to? belive it or not i never camped....after seeing the pictures of where you go and the kind of accomodations i would be really happy to try it one day^^
As for the summer planning...i hope my hands will be healed fast so i can collect the red currant that are starting to get red but mostly io hope to finish some repair in the house and that would grant me a new shelves *___* i need it i want it so it's the program^^ but there is so much to do that winter would be more reasonnable hope to see that finished^^
I really hope your hands start to get better soon too! And more shelves are ALWAYS good! :)
DeleteI agree. I wish you a speedy recovery. I could use more shelves and a bigger house to hold them as well!
Deletea house with a huge library that would be so great^^;;
Deletein my case i had a shelves but my brother used mine ( in addition to his) so now i have to clean, range, organise so we have room for one more that i plan to fill in matter of seconde to be sure to have it for me^^
the new treatment for my hand is helping but as long as we don't take care of the cause it will start again sadly.. after 9months i'm not in a hurry but at the same time it start to irritate me a lot too^^
Ok so I changed my contact email under my google account Brenda. Let me know if it works now?
ReplyDeleteNo. It didn't work. :-(
Deletetesting...
ReplyDeleteIt worked!
Deletetesting this one now. :)
ReplyDeleteThis one worked too!
Deletei'm glad you found a solution^^
DeleteI didn't really. :-( Nothing is fixed and it doesn't make sense. Her Google sign in won't send emails to me but your works. That is just more confusing and I can't seem to find the solution.
DeleteI'll keep working on it and maybe I'll figure it out before I go insane!
Do you remember when it first started not working?
DeleteCongratulations on your 20th Wedding Anniversary! It is amazing how quickly the years go by.
ReplyDeleteThis summer I am planning to read Cold Days and Skin Game by Jim Butcher. They are the two most recent books in his Harry Dresden series.
I am also having a problem with receiving emails. I no longer receive Crazy Four Books. I have not changed anything on my computer. This happened once before and Brenda was able to fix the problem. I hope you can fix it again, Brenda.
Thanks. I am working on it but what I did before isn't working this time. Please try unsubscribing and resubscribing. Other than that I have no clue, but I am working on it.
Deletethe only solution i can think of is for those who don't receive your email to suscribe via blogttro.com
Deletesimply put the url of crazy four books in the first space then the email on whish you want to receive them and it will send you each post when it's posted
it's not answering the question of why it doesn't work but at least you will receive notification/ copy of the post ( and perhaps feedurner will works after and at worse you will get 2messages ( which is better than nothing^^)
Thanks Miki! I'm guessing you meant blogtrottr?
Deleteexactly the address for those who want it is : http://blogtrottr.com/
Deletebut strangely when i copy pasted it yesterday it came as blogttro ( not that i understand why^^;;)
i hope it will be of use for some of your followers ^^
I tried it and it worked. I have also started receiving emails again after I resubscribing in email.
Deleteit sound promising then, we will see if the good result is the same for each of those who had a trouble^^ ( perhaps the system just wanted some holidays time too^^)
DeleteMy fingers are crossed. I am anxious for Amber to comment and see if that problem is fixed too.
