A little book review

I have been reading the Lynsay Sands Argeneau series for a while now. I scrape through the stacks of used book stores to try to find them. I love to read. It is one of my passions, but can be very pricey. Which is why I go to the used stores. As long as a book holds all of it's pages, what's the difference?
Anywho, on to this particular series of books. I am reading them out of the recomended ordwer, but that isn't an issue. All of the books tie in to each other, but each book is it's own story, so the reading them in order isn't neccessary, although it woudl be easier since the characters are mostly the same. I have just finished Vampire, interrupted and Tall, Dark, and Hungry. Two eager thumbs up! I cannot wait to get the rest of the series. I have 3 of the later books, and I am trying to get the first ones in the set. Slowly but surely I am collecting them. The characters are unique, and intense. There is everything to love about a good story. Lots of conflict, love, crisis, passion, and since these are considered romance novels, lots of steamy sex scenes. A girl can't help be a little jealous of the Herions in these books. Their lifemats are just that, perfect mates for life, and not in today's crappy sense of marriage. They love and they love deep. It's noty just passion it is so much more! As I read about these "Vampires" Ican't help but catch myself thinking " I wish my hubby were that attentive when I need it." or "I wish my hubby and I were so intuitive about each other." But I guess that's why people read romances, perfect couples can only be found on the pages of a fiction novel. I love my Husband dearly, but he, as am I, is only human, and by no means perfect. Who wouldn't want to live in a romance Novel for a week or so? Passionate love making, and being perfectly at ease, and completely involved with the one you love. No work, or bills, or crying three year olds.  But enough about my ideal vacation, back to the BOOKS!
I seriously recomend these novels. although they are romances, they is also a bit of fantasy, and suspense, and action! There is never a dull moment. Before these novels I wouldn't pick up a romance. These have turned me! Although they are the only romance series I read I love them. Of course my passion for vampires helped. Yes these vampires must drink blood to survive they, but they are not your typical blood suckers! I don't want to give it away, but a mini spoiler is: think of the highly advanced lost city of atlantis, and the possibilities of how they could be tied to vampires. You'll never guess! You will just have to go out and pick up one of Lynsay Sands awesome Argeneau books!

Poem

I got into an argument with the hubby the other day, and this dark poem popped into my head. Just felt like sharing and getting a little feedback on my rhyming skills. So COMMENT PEOPLE!!!! Everything in the poem is speaking metaphorically. It's about how I was feeling. I just wanted to clarify beforehand that I was not physically abused. My feeling were really hurt, and my heart felt crushed and this was just the imagry of a person with a vivid immagination, trying to put it into words, and succeeded in adding the exagerations to make this a pretty morbid piece. The fight is over we have made up and everything is okey dokey in Ballard home.
Anyway here it is :

Outside I'm crying, but inside I'm dying
You turn the knife with all of your lying
I can't take it anymore, my soul beaten and broken on the floor.
You kick me when I'm down, while my heart cannot be found.
The shattered fragments swept away, thrown out after the fray.
Still I wander through this maze, sometimes my mind filled by a haze, drifting swiftly through the days, yet my soul silently lays.
 Beaten and broken upon the floor, as I watch you walk out the door.
You always kick me when I'm down, my battered face can only frown.
No more smiles come from me, only sorrow do I see.
No matter how hard I fight, You will never fix my plight.
So from here on out, there will never be a doubt,
 that I will forever lay broken beyond repair, shrouded in despair,
never to return, from the fear and hate that burns.
 I cannot be saved, and will remain enslaved.
 Broken on the floor I'll stay, without a heart, remembering the fray.
On the outside forever crying, and inside slowly dying.
Always hoping for the day, all my pain will go away.

Oh Boy!

yesterday was colt's shared birthday party with two of his cousins. So yesterday, as any parent would know, was a day of loud kids, staying busy, and overall fun. I think everyone had a good time at the party, but by the end of the day I was pooped! I culdn't wait to get home and crash. Which I was able to do AFTER I unloaded two vehicles worth of food and gifts, put everything away, gave Colt his bath, and of course I just had to post the pics on Facebook. Then I woke up this morning to my clock reading ten AM. I completely forgot about the time change, and wondered how in the world I had managed to get an extra hour of sleep, but I guess I didn't need an hour since I had woken up on my own without Colt. Today was spent putting together his new club house, and helping Jeff build a platform for it. I came out of the day with a sore back, and mild sunburn. But Colt loved his stuff, and it was all worth it. I treated myself to some leftover dinosaur cake,(which I baked and decorated all on my own, fancy piping included!) and Icecream, and now colt is enjoying his Toy Story bubble bath. Once he is done playing, it will be my turn to relax, the good night All HAZAH!!
Colt's cake that I made!!!
