What I Did Today:
Today required catching up, making phone calls and planning which took most of my morning. Trying to juggle it in between schooling can be interesting and can take a better part of one’s morning. I recommend that you do not attempt this without lots and lots of coffee!
What Book Are You Currently Reading?
Picked up a book that I ILL* from our library. Remember my conversation at the library not too long ago about the book How To Cook A Wolf by M. F. K Fisher? It came in! While I was there, I picked up a few others – books & DVDs. I can’t help myself! I do have to be careful about what I “pick up” while I’m there. Walking back with an arm or bag full can be quite the work out.
Off to straighten things up a bit, hopefully open my new book and wait for Mr. Cutie Pie to get back from an errand so we can have dinner together and watch a movie. You can see what Blaine is reading on his blog. He does not post a lot but does keep up with the books he is reading.
I leave you with this video Sarah shared with me earlier on The Joy of Books…
*ILL, Inter Library Loan, is where you can request to borrow a book from another library when your library does not have the book on the shelves or catalog. It is a great resource for smaller libraries.

Just started Thomas Merton:Contemplative Critic by Henri Nouwen.
I sent you an email-it was entirely too long! Sorry :}
Please let me know what you think of the book. I have a friend that might like that as well!
