Look a Stranger!

Donna, I think what you think are bad pictures would probably be excellent pictures for me!

I have been really enjoying reading on my kindle/Ipad/Nook...whichever device I end up choosing at any given time.  Lately I've been reading on my IPAD because I take it to and from work, and it's just easier to keep it on one device.  Did you watch the Superbowl?  I didn't watch any of it, and have only seen like two commercials that I know were part of it.  Might have seen others, but am clueless!

Mary and Donna H.  I am sorry I missed your birthdays.  I hope you both had a great day.  Did either of you do something special?  Get something special?

Margie, a friend of mine just got a Surface.  It's a pretty cool machine.  I really enjoyed it for a few minutes that I played with it.  She wanted it because it could do things much like a laptop, and being able to add the Nook/Kindle apps was just a bonus for her.  What I'm basically saying is she really needs a laptop, but at times that's just bulky to lug around, so with the surface she can carry something smaller, and still be as productive as ever.

Trudy, how is the mold treatment going?  We were worried about mold when we had to replace our laundry room walls.  There was some but not as much as we feared, so it was easier to fix than we had hoped.  Until I got my new job I was being somewhat successful in my dejunking efforts, but lately I've stopped.  Really need to get back to it!

Donna, I'm with you I'd rather be hot than cold.  Today I went with Richard to a bowling tournament and it was freezing.  It was warmer outside than in that center!  Did you enjoy Perfect Fit?  I have that in my TBR but haven't read it yet.  There are just so many books, and so little time!  I really want to read that Joann Ross series that you're reading, but haven't gotten to any of them!

Amanda was the scent thing SCENTSY?  Wax warmers?  I have a friend who sells that, one who sells Mary Kay, one who sells Avon, and one who sells Arbonne.  Thankfully they all sell different stuff, so I don't have to feel too conflicted!

Mary, glad to hear that the dental work is going smoothly.  I have to remember to pick up my meds on Tuesday.  I know I won't have time on Wednesday, and who knows what Thursday will bring, and I need them by Friday!  Did you make it to the movie yet?

My book club has been going to see the Oscar Movies.  I haven't gone to all of them, but I went to Life of Pi, Les Mis, and Silver Linings Playbook.  I have to say that I enjoyed them all, and was really surprised to like Life of Pi as much as I did.

Trudy, I don't blame anyone for not swimming in 70 degrees.  I'm not sure if I would be warm or cold.  It would I think depend on how much sun there was and if I were in the shade or not.  Did you all have fun?  That's the important part!  I'm sorry to hear about Sharon.  Hopefully her passing is easy.

Amanda, glad you didn't get snowed in.  To me any snow is too much!  I really like living in an area where we don't typically have snow.

Did I miss a post about Sharon passing away?  I didn't see one, but I could have easily missed it.

I've been really busy with crazy hours at work, and not feeling accomplished anywhere!  I recently discovered Lisa Gardner and have listened to 5 of the books in her D.D. Warren series.  I think I'm going to have to enroll in audible once again so that I can continue the series, because at this point the library doesn't have the next one that I need.

I'm currently listening to Low Pressure by Sandra Brown.  It's pretty good and I have listened to a little more than 2.5 hours of it thus far.  I could get some good listening time in this week as I have a recruiting that I have to do in Ft. Worth, and I know that's at least a good hour drive each way!  I also need to have the GPS on, so we'll see what I end up doing!  I'm reading a Susan Wiggs book that comes out in May...The Apple Orchard.  I'm not really in the mood for it, so I'm sure it's much better than I think.  I'm also reading a book called Damaged Goods by Alexandra Allred.  It's also taking a long time because I'm trying to read it when I have down time at work, which lately is not much!


Brian finally got a job.  He's delivering pizza for Dominoes.  I'm not necessarily thrilled about that, but for his ADHD it's a pretty good deal!  He's making some good money, and hasn't asked me for any since he started.  He and his girlfirend broke up, but they're still friendly and in fact are supposed to bowl a tournament together this summer.

Richard is still living at home.  Elijah has some hearing issues, which we will know more about after he goes to the ENT in April.  Hopefully he can get a sooner appointment, but that's when he's scheduled at the moment.

Hope everyone is doing good and staying healthy, or getting healthy again!
