Oh Jill, that sucks. Can the eye doc fix them? It is like the Twilight Zone where Burgess Meredith had all the time in the world to read all the books and he stepped on his glasses....UUUGGGHHHH!

Hope that is ok Jilly! I got carried away. You could right a book about what you see in airports I am sure! Did you ever see that TV called Airport where it was a reality of this airline...incredible. I think TLC. Not sure.
As Jill sits in the airport waiting for her plane (that takes her to yet another business trip) to come in from a distant state, late as usual, she dreams of actually flying to an exotic summer island where it is just her and her soul mate, which is her husband and they have a romantic adventure leaving their daily grind behind them. With waiters with Jamaican accents bringing them mint juleps as they sit on chairs in the water watching the waves roll in and caress their feet. In actuality, she is just screaming...Calgon...take me away....

Hey Laura,
Cool! I am actually liking it better the 2nd time. I felt it was easier to get into. One, maybe because I am reading more now! And 2, I am not worried about remembering people and things like I struggled with last time! Hee! Hee!
Hey Jilly,
I don't think it is marked in the book...I see my own markings in there! I numbered the chapters! In Oprah she had pages separating the "parts" as listed above.
No prob...so lets discuss when every one is done with part two which is the end of page 195. Part one ended at page 87.

Totally Christy. It is not fair. It is hot when they go back. Luckily our Jr high and high school have air cond but the grade schools did not.
