Tuesday Night


Donna, what a great picture, and so close to Flag Day!  My sister and brother both have acreages as well.  My brother’s is 10 acres near Santa Cruz…I can never remember the exact town without having to look it up.  My sister’s is 20 acres in southern Illinois.  I’ve never been to my brother’s, but I have been to my sister’s a couple of times.  The last time her husband took me out on some sort of all terrain thing, but not an ATV and I got to see parts of the land that I’ve not seen before.
As for posting book covers if you need help let me know.  I get my covers from Fresh Fiction of course!
Donna, reading your swimming experience is like reading my own!  I never learned the crawl with taking the breath thing either!  I can float, but absolutely refuse to get in water that I know will be over my head when standing.
Trudy continuing to send you good thoughts and prayers!  Hope you can get the lawyer thing worked out.  I called our lawyer and had to leave a message and haven’t heard back yet.  Guess tomorrow I’ll try again.  Then again…no news is better than bad news!  LOL!!
Margie I hope you enjoy your father book.  Several years back I read the first two in that series.  I totally loved Dark Lover, but I didn’t really enjoy the second book, so I never moved forward, because it’s not really my favorite genre.  Is Gavin getting any early intervention for his speech?  The public school system has to give him services if he qualifies and is at least three years of age.   Could be worth checking into if he’s not school age by the fall.  If he is school age in the fall, push for assessment early, because otherwise he could fall through the cracks.
Donna, love the old house pictures! 
Since it’s summer I’ve been getting to leave early.   I know I need to hang out at work, but I’m taking full advantage of getting to leave early!   Over the weekend a friend and I went to a library book sale.  It was buy a box of books for $6.  I got 8 boxes of children’s books.  My friend drove, and the boxes were weak, so I told her if I could leave the boxes in her car I would treat to lunch.  Well, when I told Ellen about that she offered to buy us lunch if we didn’t go someplace too expensive.  When Erica got there with the boxes, John, Ellen’s husband helped us unload the boxes and told us to go to Benihana, so we did.  Ellen paid!  We were gone about a hour or so, and then when I got back to work I worked another hour and then got to leave!
Today when I got to leave I went and got the oil changed in my car.  Brian and I are headed to a bowling tournament this weekend.  Mike was supposed to go to, but he keeps getting work thrown at him, and he can’t afford the time off right now.  He’s on project deadline!  After the oil change I stopped at BN and read for a bit on my nook.
 I’m reading Tan Lines by Kate Angell.  It’s my first book by her, and I’m not totally thrilled, and today the editing annoyed me.  It said something to the effect that she had a keurig, and after they brewed the coffee they poured it into a cup.  Well, I have a Keurig and you brew it directly into the cup you’re going to be drinking it out of…there is no carafe!
I’m also reading Don’t Say A Word by Beverly Barton, The Cowboy and the Princess by Lori Wilde, and listening to Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince.
Hope everyone is having a good week!
Sandi
