Sobre mimThe books shown in my LT library are books I've read, not books I own or books I want to read. To read are books I want to read, regardless of whether I own them.

I rate books as follows:

5 stars=great, one of the best of the year for me
4 stars=very good
3 stars=good
2 stars=ok, not bad
1 star =not very good
0 stars=why did I bother?

When I rate/review a book, I also figure my expectations about that book into equation and also think about other books I've read by that author or about that subject.

Sobre a minha bibliotecaI read all sorts of books but my favorites are mysteries of all kinds, especially those featuring amateur sleuths. I also love reading books about baseball, in particular about my beloved Chicago Cubs.

For 2009, I've chosen the following 9 categories for my first 999 challenge, which I finished on August 1, 2009:

1. Cozy Mysteries
2. Professional Sleuth Mysteries
3. Vintage Mysteries
4. Baseball Books
5. Books About Chicago
6. American Presidents
7. Books About Books/Libraries
8. Books About Disasters
9. General Nonfiction (that doesn't fit into categories 4 through 8, above)

Since 999 challenge 1 is progressing so nicely, I am doing a second 999 challenge, too. The categories for 999 challenge 2 include:

1. More Cozy Mysteries
2. More Baseball Books
3. More General Nonfiction
4. Christmas Mysteries
5. Authors/Series New to Me
6. Next in the Series
7. Sports, But Not Baseball
8. Biographies/Autobiographies
9. Art and Architecture

Hope they were still able to do your blood work, despite being late. The night I had that 4-hour commute was mostly through the parts of town that I would not have wanted to stop in after dark. As long as I stayed on the freeway, I was OK. That same night, my husband (driving in a much safer part of town) did exactly what you did - stopped and ate dinner while the traffic thinned out. He still beat me home!
Home is the best place to be when it's snowing - I love getting outside and clearing the driveway and sidewalk, then coming in for hot cocoa and sitting by the fire. Lucky you to get to work from home on bad weather days. We weren't driving far this evening - a music concert at the high school, so only about 3 miles. My record long commute was last winter when I was coming home from a client's office on the other side of town. It's about 25 miles, and usually takes 30-45 minutes depending on traffic (through downtown KC). The weather was like today, only colder so the snow started after lunch and we ended up with about 6 inches by rush hour, and it took me 4 hours to get home. I guess it's a good thing it wasn't colder today. The client I went to today is even farther away - who knows how long that drive would have taken!
Linda, it's finally snowing here! Only a light dusting - still above freezing when I got home half an hour ago - just sticking to the cars and the grass. It was mid-30's and rained all day today, so we'd have a ton of snow if only it'd been 5 degrees cooler! My son (and me, too) are hoping it keeps up all night so they will call a snow day tomorrow.
We're expecting some snow and ice tomnorrow. I'm planning on stayng in and do some of my baking for Sunday's Open House. Figure I can do a book on audio while I bake.
