setting the bar

i know
i know
two blog posts in two days...

enjoy, cuz this might not happen again!

so i know i need to get back into the swing of
blogging

it used to come so easy to me...
things to blog about were always
swirling around in my mind

but not lately...

so here it goes...
an attempt
if i start
maybe the swirlies will come again!

book club

we average a book every two months
cuz we are all too busy to meet more often!

here's a rundown of the books we've read...

by mark haddon
...love this book
...easy read
...loved the point of view
...highly recommend!

the thirteenth tale

...i struggled to get through it
...not my genre
...will leave it at that!

the help

...buy this book
...run! don't walk!
...thank me later!

the 19th wife
by david ebershoff
...another great one
...insightful

...great for discussion! (and discuss we did! whew!)

the weight of silence
by heather gudenkauf
...this whole book takes place in one day
...what a long day!

{uncertainty}

i know that a few months back
i said i'd return
i thought it would be sooner

but better late than never
i guess


where to begin???
remember this last year?
well, ditto for this year.
fully expected it, but sucks still
it was rescinded last year,
thankfully

and i hope it will be this year
but
there is still that uncertainty

so in the meantime
we wait
and wonder
and make changes
in case
i don't get called back

so many uncertain things right now
