Only a few minutes this morning as I am now back to being alone in the mornings as Chance has gone back home after
his month stay with us. No more rushing to the school by 8 am each morning, no more getting up to get a cup of coffee and he is already waiting for me at the table, no more 14 year old under foot every day at 3:30 pm asking what I am doing as I read or blog or….
yeah. I miss him already.
So this morning holding on to Coffee Cup and basking in the fact that it is 8:30 and I am still sitting at the table wondering how much longer I can push the getting out out the door to get to the office by 9:00 am…. ahhhh quiet mornings! I haven’t blog hopped a whole lot this morning as I had a review to post for a tour and had a couple finishing touches to put on it. I actually had two that were due up today, so if you have a moment, please check them out:
Football Is For Lovers (yup. I was a bit surprised on this one too)
The Financial Lives Of The Poets (a laugh out loud look at one persons financial destruction and his attempts to get it back)
Last nights book club was a lot of fun and a lot of great food! We reviewed A Tree Grows in Brooklyn and it was a great discussion. I am going to post that review tomorrow as I already have the two reviews up today. Oh – and yes, I still need to post my fall recipe that I mentioned in yesterdays meandering…. this afternoon I should be able to do that 🙂
Have a great day all!
Book Journey 
The Financial Lives Of The Poets sounds interesting and anything that puts a smile on the face is certainly worth investigating. Football Is For lovers, on the otherhand? Sorry but any book with football in the title and I’m automatically put off.
Hi pettywitter. Normally I would turn down a football read as well. When I was asked if I would review this one it sounded like it could be a fun read so I said yes. I usually olny watch one game a year – the Super Bowl and that is because I love the commercials! 🙂
I’m glad your book club turned out well! Have a great day Sheila.
Thanks Zia!
Book Club was yummy. We do need a better seating arrangment so no one feels on the outs. What a big group we had!! Loved your soup.
Football is my game. I am the one yelling at the players on the TV, guessing at the next play, and looking over at my husband whenever some football/sexual terms are being discussed. You will have to call me if you want more of an explaination. They aren’t overtly sexual, I just take them that way. It’s better than baseball. Faster game, shorter season. Lots of action.
HI Kaydi…. thanks for visiting! 🙂 The Football book was a bit of a stretch for me…. but once I started looking into it I seen it wasnt what I was fearing it was…. it actually was entertaining. 🙂
It sounds like you have a busy day! I know exactly what you mean about missing kids around the house – it happens to me every year when I send the boys off to school. The first few days seem so quiet and strange. I’m glad you enjoyed your time with Chance!
Hi Alyce. He is such a great kid. It was fun having him around and Al and I both enjoyed spending time with him. 🙂
I love A Tree Grows In Brooklyn!
Glad you had a great time at your book club meeting.
Hi Vicki – I really need to get the review up – we had such a wonderful discussion!
I am so glad you do these posts! Gives me a chance to catch up on what’s going on.
