MYSTERY DETECTIVES MARATHON

SO I'M WATCHING A MYSTERY DETECTIVES MARATHON ONE SATURDAY NIGHT.  IT'S A FORENSICS SHOW THAT SOLVES MURDER CASES BY FORENSIC SCIENCE.  

THERE'S OBVIOUSLY A MURDER ON EACH SHOW THAT THE POLICE & CRIME LAB SOLVE.  

AND THE CULPRIT IS ALMOST ALWAYS THE SPOUSE.  

SO WHAT COMMERCIAL PLAYS OVER & OVER DURING THIS MARATHON?

YOU GUESSED IT

-CHRISTIAN MINGLE DATING SERVICE-

THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE!!

I'M JUST SAYING...

MORE SAND CASTLES

NOT YOUR EVERYDAY SAND CASTLE CONTEST!

SANDCASTLES

ON A RECENT TRIP TO FLORIDA, WE STUMBLED ACROSS A SAND CASTLE CONTEST.

I HAD SO MUCH FUN WITH THE READING CHALLENGES THAT I SIGNED UP FOR IN 2012.

I COMPLETED 2 CHALLENGES - 

CRUISING THRU THE COZIES

&

A - Z BOOK CHALLENGE.

AND I LEARNED A LITTLE ABOUT BOOK CHALLENGES & MYSELF.

1.  TRYING TO DO THE GEOGRAPHICAL (50 STATES) CHALLENGE WAS DIFFICULT.  I FOUND IT HARD TO REMEMBER WHICH STATES I  NEEDED TO FIND A STORY SET IN.

2.  THE MEN IN UNIFORM CHALLENGE WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT.  YES, I READ MYSTERIES WITH A MAN AS THE PROTAGANIST, BUT FINDING A MAN THAT WORE A UNIFORM WAS NOT THAT EASY.

3.  THE VINTAGE MYSTERIES WERE AN INTERESTING IDEA, BUT I HAD A TOUGH TIME IMMERSING MYSELF INTO THE OLDIES.  STORIES WERE WELL WRITTEN & INTERESTING BACK THEN - BUT APPARENTLY MY PERSONAL TASTES HAVE CHANGED & I AM NOW INTO FUNNY, COZY STORIES.

4.  I NEED TO USE MY NOOK MORE!

I LOVED THE CRUISING THRU THE COZIES CHALLENGE.  ANY BOOK I READ COUNTED!

THE A - Z BOOK CHALLENGE WAS SO MUCH FUN.  I HAD A GREAT TIME FINDING TITLES THAT BEGAN WITH EACH LETTER!
