READING: With
the death of Tony Hillerman (and so no new releases obviously), I was
happy that Mark found an author, Margaret Coel, who writes mysteries
centered at an Indian reservation in Wyoming that sort of fill the gap
left behind by Mr. Hillerman. Have been reading a couple of those to
break up the longer historical work these past couple of weeks. The
kind of book you can bring along on a wait somewhere.
LISTENING TO: A mix of this and that and nothing at all with a theme, just shuffling.
COOKING BYTES: I received Jeffrey Hamelman's Bread book for Mother's Day, so now I can bake with the Mellow Bakers group...unofficially.
FAV NEW FIND: I finally
have made arrangements to part with all the homeschooling materials we
had left in the house. Some of them were very hard to part with, but I
am figuring it's a start, hope to start downsizing in a couple of
years, so it's best that these things find new homes where they will be
used and appreciated again.
FAV THING THIS WEEK: Just a really nice week of catching up on things around here, time for myself, time for the family.
GOING TO: A three day swim meet at home starting Friday, ending Sunday; IYC concert performance on Saturday; thinking that's about all we will be able to fit in over the weekend.
PRAYING FOR: Please join me in praying for all the high schoolers preparing for finals to end the school year. Remember those years, the tendency to want to just slack off at the end of the year figuring summer is just around the corner?
