ladyjanet - July 21, 2007 08:01 PM (GMT)
I've received three books so far, all safely tucked away:
Sarradee
Lovemylife
and... :blush: Oh no- the book is at home and I'm here at work (on Saturday... :wacko: )
ETA:Number three is from Alsgal! :hug: :wave:
ETA:
books from:
msjoanna
terra
and I think Three and Bib, but as usual the books are home and I'm at work. :duh:
I have six or seven now.
I'm judging at the county fair tomorrow, so I may not get online until the 2nd.

ladyjanet - August 2, 2007 02:08 AM (GMT)
I'll add photos when I get back to work, but I was showered with tons of lovely books!
I Was so excited that I started opening them all, and didn't keep track of who sent what.. :blush: :giggle:
so after I got control of myself, I think I have it all figured out.
From Sarra- Danse Macabre by Laurell Hamilton (OOOO sexy vampires!) and a wishlist book!

From Biblio :wave: a book of cross stitch patterns! How did you find one I don't already have? Oh these will come in handy for bookmarks :whistle:

Not the best photo, but this is out of print (which makes it more special!)
From terra- A Red Hot Cajun boy next door :drool:
Oh wait- that's a Red Hot Cajun by Sandra hill and Boy Next Door by Meggin Cabot. :rofl:


LML sent me Getting Rid of Bradley by Jennifer Crusie- I'm planning to conspicuously read this in front of my co-worker Bradley.. :D
wss4 - August 2, 2007 02:15 AM (GMT)
Well I have been a bad Diva and have not mailed your book yet. But I promise that before the end of August rolls around you will have it. :blush:

Ok, the comment about my books was funny, but that ^ made me laugh out loud.
Bibliocrates - August 2, 2007 04:13 AM (GMT)
I'm so glad to know that my mother's book is in good hands now. She had many of the sort, very talented woman and had lotsa hobbies, unlike me. I just did a book search to your bookshelf to make sure you didn't already have it and voila!
Enjoy!
Bib :kiss:

Looks like you've got some goodies. Mine hasn't gone out yet. Lets just say I wanted to you enjoy the whole month of being a Diva! :hug:

| Alsgal (via tribefan?) sent an Agatha for my collection! Murder at the Vicarage. I might have to let DH read this first.. he's managed to snatch most of my Miss Marples. :shedevil: |
Thanks to Tribe for helping me out. I didn't have anything from your wishlist and when I saw Tribe's book giveaway, and Agatha on her shelf, I knew she would help me out.
I just hope that you get to read this one :giggle: LJ's DH :whip:
Happy Reading!

Well, I know Three was sending one. :duh:
I got from California- two wishlist books- Hush Puppy and Hair of the Dog by Laurien Berenson

I journaled everything with a BCID yesterday, so you should have an email by now (unless BXing is running slow or losing emails again). I had a great birthday in January... are you giving me permission to have another party, 'cos I'm good with that! :nod:
Bibliocrates - August 7, 2007 04:24 PM (GMT)
Strange... I didn't get a PM and when I checked my shelf I didn't even see the book! I did a book search for it and found it thank goodness, saw you JE, thought the BCID might have got lost in cyberspace, that's been happening to my BCID's a lot lately, anyone else having that problem?

There is a thread about folks not getting the journal entries over in Chit Chat.
ladyjanet - August 29, 2007 10:45 PM (GMT)
I'm sooo bad! I 've gotten three more diva books and I'm just too swamped to do anything with them! I promise I'll post, journal and hugs all around ASAP!
In the meantime, my Diva month is about up, and you all made me feel very Diva-ish and spoiled! :wub:
FamFatale - August 31, 2007 04:18 AM (GMT)
LadyJanet =
There should be two books en route to you. They are coming through paperbackswap.com and both from the same author....... grin...
The books are coming from different people, though. If you think about it, would you please drop me a PM so that I can give each person credit for having mailed them.
Fam
