Where have I been?

I know I've been a little MIA lately. This is due to the fact that I went up and visited Ashley to see her new, adorable little baby. then I had the wonderful suprise of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows arriving on my doorstep at around 11 am Saturday morning. My mom tried to steal it claiming she wouldnt see me for a few days. I finally got it away and cracked the perfectly untouched spine. I immediatly started reading and immediatly got sucked in. Everyone was just sure that I would be so immersed that I would completly ignore Scarlette. But I didn't. I took care of her just as I always do and still managed to finish this morning at 2 am. I had a few lapses in reading when John and I went out to visit his family. I wasnt even thinking about the book while I was away. Then when I got home, Kathryn had stolen it and started reading. Monday I even had to go to work all day. When I got home Kat was almost ahead of me. She finished the chapter and i stole the book back. I couldn't have her finish it before me. So Monday night after John and Scarlette went to sleep I read. I planned on reading for 2 hours ( till 12) but I couldn't put it down. I HAD to finish. It was so intoxicating. So I did. And it was great. I will miss the fun and excitment of new Harry Potter books.Thanks J.K. Rowling for all the fun.
