A good book helps us hide from reality-

It is Thanksgiving this weekend----We will be celebrating Thanksgiving at Son#1's place. --I am in charge of the Pumpkin pies----  which I will do this afternoon--  so they can set ---- 

I walked Lopez early this morning-- almost in the dark--  and had to wear a parka--It seemed very cold! Beau was out just before---He and I venture out , in the dark, watching for wildlife---both of us!

I am reading a very interesting book-- I saw the author on "The View"---  the Lady who worked with Hilary Clinton in her election--I was so impressed with the what she had to say, talking about the reasons she wrote this book--  and her life-- how she overcame obstacles- ---just to write this book, which I believe she said , is now a best seller.

The book is written by Huma Abedin, and the title is "BOTH/AND"----what a intelligent Lady!---She speaks of her childhood---living in different countries, and her failed marriage , and how she came to be in the White House. She had never written a book before, and found it a challenge to do that, but, told the Ladies on the View , that taking on this enormous challenge of writing this book, made her stronger-

The book is well written and so interesting! -- 

Years ago, my daughter bought me a Kindle-- I figured out how to use it--  filled it to the brim with such great books--which I could order online, and they would just drop onto my kindle--instantly--  This was so great, living where we do, in the middle of nowhere--instant reading material!--- From there, I bought another Kindle-_(the old one was full)_again online, which Amazon named "Kindle #2"-The books I order come onto Kindle#2 within seconds---I do read a lot-- afternoons while Himself has a wee nap, and as soon as I get into bed at night--

So, ever onward here!--I hope where ever you are-- how ever your life is going, that your day is the best day ever--and if it doesn't seem that way, I hope that you can make it that way--

_"A smile "---- telling someone that you care  ---hug a friend--or/and, your cat, or dog, -- call a person , to say hello--because I truly believe that we are all struggling in our own way--tell a police person how much you appreciate their work-- hug your Mom if you are so fortunate to have one-- and  respect a Chihuahua owner--They need  to hear that--They are trying so hard to keep their pet-- (I do not know why tho)_
