Morning. 😀 I had a fantastic Monday and hope you did too. Group Power in the morning, worked, and roller bladed. My aunt was in town from Alaska. I went out to dinner last night with her and another aunt and uncle of mine. We do not get together often so it was a nice time catching up. Busy full day….
And tonight is our annual Bookies Book Club Queen event. Time to pass the crown on to whoever takes the vote tonight. It should be fun, potluck and hanging out at one of our members homes. Tomorrow I should have pictures for you as well as book recommendations from the Bookies. We do not read a book for July, this is our free month to read whatever you like and then we get together during the Queen Event and discuss the books we chose.
I cant wait to see everyone all dressed up!
Here are links to the past two years of events: 2009 Queen Event and 2008 Queen Event

So that’s the big day coming up! I work today and then have a few things to prep for tonight. I will wear the crown tonight for the last time – until I pass it on to our Bookies Queen of 2010-2011. 😀
Oh, what fun! Are you sad you have to give up your crown, or are you glad your reign is reaching its end?
Hannah, it was a fun year but I am excited to see who is next! 😀
Looks like a fun event! Have a good time.
Thanks Margie – praying the weather holds for us – it is a bit overcast today! 🙂
What a fun day you’ve had so far!!! Enjoy the end of your reign 😀
Thanks Staci….. I think I should have a special lunch or something….LOL 😀
Awww…that looks like fun! Have a great evening!
Thanks Andrea – should be a good time 🙂
Oh, that will be one of those poignant moments, both sweet and sad…
Have fun!
More sweet then sad Laurel….. its sometimes hard to break the ties in a book vote. Glad it doesn’t have to be me anymore 😀
So are you wearing your crown all day? lol lol
Jo-Jo that is soooo funny! I wish I would have thought of that! 😀
Hi D,
I was contacted by David Morris last week and he suggested that I send you a copy of my book, ‘ Another Day in Paradise’. I would be happy to let you have a copy and maybe give three away. If that is of interest to you, please let me know your details and I will post them out to you.
Kind regards,
Mark Reece

Oooh! Your ‘Bookies Queen Event’ looks like a blast! I love how you all get dressed up. See.. books bring people together. So who got the crown?
I will post all that tomorrow – the vote is tonight so currently…. its anyone’s crown….LOL 😀
Have fun tonight! Enjoy the final hours wearing your crown. 🙂
Thanks Jill – I did 😀
That looks like so much fun Sheila! I always love the chance to get dressed up, but to talk about books as well, ahhh what fun!! =)
It was a total blast – cant wait to share their thoughts with you tomorrow! 😀
What a cute idea! Looking forward to the pictures tomorrow!
Thanks Amused! 😀
What a wonderful group. Sounds like fun. I was starting a book club at the library before I was let go. I’ll have to check with my home library to see if they have a list of local book clubs. I miss having friends to discuss books with.
(I need to keep up with your posts better. I’m working my way in order today rather than work backwards.)
If I wasnt so chatting Pat it wouldnt be so hard to catch up 😀
