COMFORT COMES TO ME IN STRANGE WAYS

This book is coming to me from Amazon. Because when I'm sad I like to dive in and wallow in the sad. Swim in it. Do a backstroke and then flip over float face down in despair. I think this wonderful story of a woman's grief will help me to do just that.

In the event that you are looking for a beautiful, precious, tragic and sad tale, I have a few selections for you:

The Bridges of Madison County

Lucky

Tuesdays With Morrie

The Red Tent

A Time to Kill

Bridge to Terabithia

To Kill a Mockingbird

And I hear from my friend Mary (and a few thousand other people) that this one might be good for jerking a tear or two. We shall see...

LAZY, CRAZY, HAZY

I'm feeling really lazy like I don't want to write or cook or talk - all I want to do is read. Is that so wrong?

Here are 2 books just waiting for me at the Rosegarden Library for pickup today:
Eat the Document: A Novel
No Country for Old Men

And a lovely little list of Summer Reading options from Amazon just for you. And anyone else who goes there. Enjoy.

ALSO - be sure to take the poll I posted (to the right at the top of this blog)!!! I want to see results. Send your friends!

Gosh, that sounds pretty pushy after I just said I don't want to do anything at all. Hmmmm....


** Earring Update - no earrings for Maddy yet. We were at the Claire's at the Gilroy Outlets this weekend and I asked her if she wanted to pop in and get them done real quick.

Madigan's wide eyed response: "Uh, I don't know. Ummmm, where is Daddy. I don't think he wants me to today." So there you have it. Someday, but just not today. Or tomorrow.
