Things are looking up--

Saturday April 11, 2009

Justice served.

It is raining, raining, raining today. A great day to "catch up" on all the busy stuff that has piled up over the last few weeks that I have been gone, etc.

Finally got to do my taxes. Finally got to do some work in the yard. Finally watched a lot of TV shows in the DVR. Finally read some of the back newspapers.

The knitting....or not....ladies met Thursday night. What a good time we had. We all think it is not often enough so we are going to figure out something else to add to our month.

Have read some good books lately....


Thought this was really good. It is about a 50 year old woman who is a professor of linguistics at Harvard. She develops early onset Alzheimer's. Although fiction, it is so well written.
I have just started the Esme book and am finding it quite interesting. A government-run psych hospital is closing in Scotland and there is a woman who has been in it for 61 years and now is deemed able to go back into society. They contact her great niece who doesn't even know she exists.

Blonde is the story of Marilyn Monroe. What a very sad, very ,very pathetic woman. John Kennedy and his family would have never made it to the pedestal in today's age of "transparency".


Well, most of them have been good. This is downright creepy. Probably wouldn't recommend it to anyone unless you have read every book you ever wanted to read in your life already.

Always curious what it's like when you hang out with the "ladies".
