Good thing there is always another day----- Guess what?--son#2, the Pilot is almost here--- drove up from Toronto early this AM----AND THERE WAS NO SNOW FALLING----- and I suspect, he is nearly here--Am I excited or what?-----YES I AM!!!!!!-----He will be here for a few days--- so so nice! --I am as happy as a clam at high tide! (however happy that clam might be!)-
I really am thinking of all of you this morning--- -Lordy Be! I do hope that you got up on the "right side of the bed"----- (Dad's expression of course!)--- If you live in the U.S., it is your Thanksgiving weekend--- so--"---HAPPY THANKSGIVING"--I wish you happiness, Health-, and rest-----and that you enjoy your day---
I see "The Time Traveller's Wife" on there-----"The Diary of a Young Girl"--also--- some interesting choices--for sure!-I see "Withering Heights"--- I have read that and I remember I enjoyed reading that book--
Remember, there is always, always , always, something to be thankful for!
Have a wonderful, relaxing visit with your son. Such a treat for you and Himself. I had to laugh at myself and thought of you when I put my extra car key fob in my pocket to go get something out of it and
ReplyDeletealmost put those pants in the wash without cleaning the pocket. Oops. Luckily I found it first. D.
Never lose that Key FOB-- because it causes all kinds of terrible stuff to happen--TRUST ME_-LOL--Lynda
DeleteInteresting mix of old classics and new ones. I have read 33 of them (I think... I hope I did not count any that I only saw the movie... I know at least one of them was a "Young Person's" version). At one point of my life I was trying to read one classic a year. I need to get back to reading!
ReplyDeleteFor 2023 I set a goal to read 12 books. So far I've only finished 7. I think I may be trying to read things that just aren't holding my interest. That's the key to reading a lot... read what pleases you! But I have tackled some heavy stuff this year.
Happy visit with your son #2... I'm excited for you, looking forward to his visit! And I'll say "Happy Thanksgiving" even though I know Canada doesn't celebrate tomorrow as we do here in the US... but Thanksgiving knows no limits, in my book.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yer family--=Son#2 is here--SO good to see him---- I think yer idea of reading so many books--yer goal--is a good one-Lynda
DeleteAbsolutely there is always so much to be grateful for. I'm blessed.
ReplyDeleteYou sound so very happy that son is coming. I hope he can stay for a while. He can help "entertain" himself.
Have a wonderful visit.
Hugs
So happy Son #2 has arrived! Wonderful ! Enjoy it all!
ReplyDeleteWe enjoy his visits as they are not often enough--Lynda
DeleteAwwww, that’s wonderful that son #2 is on his way to visit! That will be wonderful.
ReplyDeleteInteresting list! Have read a lot of them. Sadly, some of the books are now being BANNED from being read in some school systems. Books like Uncle Tom’s Cabin, The Catcher in the Rye, To Kill a Mockingbird. Isn’t that ridiculous! Read all of those growing up. So dangerous, to me, when you start banning books that really are classics! And besides, you can access them on the internet anyhow. I don’t think if a kid wants to read those books they will be deterred, and I HOPE THEY AREN’T!
And absolutely love the 8 things to remember when going through tough times. THANK YOU for posting that!
I hope you have a good visit with your son
Hugs

That is so sad that Uncle Tom's Cabin would be banned--I do agree-When one stArts banning books, it becomes dangerous--What else will they do?--Lynda
DeleteAwwwww Yu are so so good!--==- I FINALLY figured it out--Maggie and LOL Gramma are the same--Enjoy your Thanksgiving--I know that you will!-Awwwww--=and yu believe that poem is "ME"??--- I really feel honoured that you think that--Thank you--Lynda
ReplyDeleteIt's Kathy. How nice thar son #2 is visiting. What a list of books. I have read some of them but not many. I like simple books that don't make me think much. Getting the house cleaned for our family Thanksgiving on Friday. So much to get done! Hope it's been a good day.
ReplyDeletehi Kathy-- Yes I thought that book list quite interesting--I hope you enjoy yer Thanksgiving----- a wonderful time of yar to appreciate all we have!----hugs to you-Lynda
DeleteHi Lynda: I'm really late doing this. I bought a new wireless mose and it took me ages to get it set up. The computer kept trying to set new stuff up like google chrome to replace the google chrome I already have! Really glad the pilot made it up there. Hopefully the weather stays good enough for them to get back home in the near future. Little doggie meme is really cute. How is himself's leg and his daycare? Have to see if i can make the booklist a bit larger so I can read it better. Have a great visit with the pilot! Hugs Brenda
ReplyDeleteHi Brenda=-Good to see yu--Yes--wonderful to have Son#2 visit-Next week Himself begins Daycare 3 times a week----Lynda
DeleteSo glad #2 has come to visit. In a way, I almost wish Himself would have a tantrum so someone else could see how it goes on bad days,
ReplyDeleteon the other hand Hoping for your sake the visit is totally peaceful and happy.....
Himself will be just fine with Son#2 here--and--the Lodge called and have made room for him to go now on a Wed.--nice for me--- Lynda
