Good evening! I'm back and on a new computer!!
Hopefully this means I'll be blogging more. I've updated all my sidebar links as well as what I'm reading and book club info.
I've been listening to a lot of audiobooks. Right now I'm working my way through the Sookie Stackhouse books. I'm on book 7. If you've heard of the True Blood TV show, these are the books that show is based on. Telepaths, vampires, were-animals, fairies, shapeshifters, etc...all set in a tiny town in northeast Louisiana. Paranormal hijinks ensue.
We had a great summer. We made a weekend trip to Chicago for Eric Clapton's Crossroads Guitar Festival. Quite an adventure! We also went to St. George Island in Florida with my family...even the grandparents went!
There were of course lake trips for all the holidays and cramming in as much time as possible with my family. My mom and dad sold their house here in Murfreesboro...a little quicker than they anticipated. It was bittersweet. This was the last house we lived in as a family, so I was a little sad to see it go. The attic had to be cleaned out and all the lingering things in each of our closets had to be carted to our own houses or to charity. Most of their belongings went into storage and they moved into the lake house in the meantime. They are currently working on fixing up their new Murfreesboro abode: a condo only 5 minutes from my own house. I'm thrilled to welcome them to north Murfreesboro!
Scooter and Lucy are doing well! They pester each other constantly.
We both work a lot, and David has really gotten into singing with a band. They even have gigs occasionally.
So, as you can read, things are just sailing along pretty well. I will try my hardest to get back in the habit of checking in. There are some interesting things coming up. My birthday is Friday, we are having family portraits done in November, and then there will be all the holiday hoop-la.
