Well, almost done. As you can see, I have the blog itself moved but the main part of the site is down. I’m in the process of working with tech support to get the new program for it loaded. That should be in place within the next day or so and then I’ll start playing with it. I hope.
So I’m going to start posting again. For the time being, I’ve renamed the blog part of the site to Bev’s Notes, the name I used back on Blogger a couple of years ago. There is method to my madness, I promise. 
One of the oddest things happened to me the other day, I think mainly because I wasn’t ready yet to start blogging yet but maybe not. I found myself posting on the AAR forum. I honestly do not know how many years it has been since that’s happened. Seriously. But you know, I actually think I like their new boards a lot more than the old ones so that might be part of it, too.
My son is currently holding my eBookwise reader hostage so I’m, gasp, having to read paperbacks. Mostly. I’m also managing to reread the occasional ebook on the monitor and it’s a pain, let me tell you.

I almost didn’t post this but decided to go on and let everyone know just in case there were some still coming by. In a few days, it may appear that this blog will disappear. It will still be here but I’m moving it to a lower level on the site so that I can do some remodeling of the upper levels with a different program. At present, I’m not sure if I’m going to keep my present blog archive as a Wordpress one or incorporate it within the new stuff on the site, so I can’t give you any redirect information yet. Just keep checking back on the base bevsbooks.com domain and once everything settles down, I’ll let you know what my plans are.

I feel like I’ve been asleep for a week. Oh, wait, I think I have. Well, most of it. I’ve had that head cold “thing” that’s been going around. Mark got it around Christmas and then Amy started with the sniffles on New Years Eve right on schedule. I thought it was going to skip over me but I started feeling yucky last Friday night and by Saturday I was barely able to breath. I hate that feeling.
Told both kids and the ex I was going to disown them all for gifting me with it. (Him because they were his kids, you know. Guilt by association. Yeah, he didn’t get it either. ;p) What a way to ruin the holidays. Well, the afterglow anyway.
I’m finally starting to feel better, though. Enough to start thinking about reading. Did a lot of movie watching while laid up in bed but no reading. Just the thought of looking at a book page hurt my nose. Go figure. Whatever. Anyway, I can’t figure out what to read, though. It’s like I’m in the mood for everything and nothing. I checked out both the Ebookwise and Samhain new releases and didn’t even feel a smidgen of interest. So that’s a bust. For the moment.
Then it occurred to me that I have absolutely no idea what’s new out in the paperback arena. What’s the latest rage? Ah, and to keep this from turning into a series-fest, any first book discoveries?

So has everyone recovered from the holidays yet? I think I have. What’s that old saying about a new year, a new attitude? Can’t remember it exactly but that’s what I feel like in regards to blogging, at any rate. And that’s sort of why I’ve waited until now to poke my head back up out of the sand.
I’ve definitely decided I’m making some changes in the way I do things here. Major changes. I’ve already changed the look of things - although it’s been so long since I last posted that you may not even remember how it looked last. I’m not even sure I do. ;p. Now I’m slowly tweaking some things behind the scenes but while that’s going on I’m ready to start posting again.
And boy do I have a lot to talk about. Got a lot of goodies video-wise for Christmas, for one thing. Have to yak about them. One or two in particular. And then I’ve read a lot of books this last year that I haven’t entered into my personal database, so I really need to do my yearly book, um, purge. That’s one word for it. I thought I’d let y’all in on my thoughts (and mutters) as that progresses. Or doesn’t.
Don’t expect a post a day, however, because I will probably be getting at least a part-time job very soon so I’m planning to space the posts out intentionally.

I saw a book in the grocery story yesterday and passed on it then. Now, I’m wondering if I’m going to have to rethink that after doing some online research. It was by an author I’ve read and enjoyed in the past, true - Kathleen Nance. Really liked her Olympian and Djinn books. Phoenix Unrisen is labeled romantic suspense, though, and so I paused before picking it up. I’m not real hot on that nowadays.
Then when I looked Phoenix Unrisen up on Amazon a little while ago, bells started going off because the names mentioned in the descriptions sounded familiar. That didn’t click yesterday. So, I checked Nance’s website and sure enough, it’s connected to her Djinn books but not in a direct sequence with them. The hero is a brother to one of the heroines from one of those books. And there are magical elements in the book. Interesting.
Now, I’m really, really dithering. Do the pros outweigh the cons? Hmm.
