Welcome to my third Mailbox Monday in a row! I’ve not been all that great at always posting each week for my other memes. I’m trying to get better. It’s difficult sometimes to balance family, work, and blogging. I’ve decided that I’ll do what I can, but I’m still going to celebrate when I gain some blogging traction.
Here is what I found in my mailbox over the past week:
On Borrowed Wings by Chandra Prasad sent by Simon & Schuster
Unlocked: The Life and Crimes of a Mafia Insider by Louis Ferran sent by HarperCollins
Deep Dish by Mary Kay Andrews sent by HarperCollins
Crossed Wires by Rosy Thornton sent by the author (thanks so much, Rosy!)
And, because I’m off today and have more time than I know what to do with (yeah, right!), here’s the photo I’m entitling “Self Portrait with Books 021609″:
Don’t forget to check out my Hail to the Chief Giveaway. Contest ends 02.23.09.
Have a great week, everyone!
I’m impressed by how well you balance your life! I’m not sure what this says about me, but I think the Mafia book looks good.

I read some of the first few pages of the mafia book and I’ll definitely be reading it. This person definitely has an interesting life. Check out his bio. Incredible.
Yeah, I am all over that mafia book! From my perspective, you seem to balance your life quite well!

I hear you on the balancing act. It’s hard to do it all, and sometimes I can’t. Family comes first, and I scramble to do everything else.
I haven’t heard of these books, so I’m looking forward to your reviews!
Looks like a great bunch of books found their way to you! Happy reading.
Ohhh – those books sound like fun! Fun picture too. Isn’t it hard to keep everything in balance? I find I stay up WAY too late in order to get some “me” time to blog for myself.

I haven’t heard of those, but they look great! I can relate to not keeping up with the memes. I’ve decided not to worry about it and just do what I can handle when I can handle it.

Thank you for stopping by the mailbox for a 3rd week in a row!
I know how hard it is to balance so don’t worry if you can’t get here all the time.
