I have an hour and a half before it airs here! Two of us in my office are big fans. I told my boss we may have to call in sick tomorrow because we'll be emotionally damaged! My boss does not watch, so she just looked at us like 'WTF!?'

35559 It's a quiet Saturday in the neighborhood. I stayed down as long as I could -- till 1pm! -- just reading and reading. Vicodin is wonderful! Now it's laundry time (ugh!) going to make some pumpkin chili in the crockpot and read some more. Hopefully I'll knock out a couple of books by today or tomorrow...
I'm working on several, but a #7 for sure

35559 I haven't been reading a lot of my library books in favor of ones for WOBBLE. I think I'll just read whatever catches my eye & try to finish up a few personal challenges. I am really enjoying myself with this one, though...

The Most Famous Illegal Goose Creek Parade
Virginia Smith
Finished 10/15/16
224 pages
Emerge the Victor
Book with tons of idioms! The series I pick is : Lips shut tighter than a clam. Tongue frozen over like a pond in January. silent as the grave. Quiet as a church mouse.
One character, Violet, speaks in constant cliches or makes up her own! So take your pick. All of these appear on page 134.

Can also be used as. 1st in series or published in 2015 -- use wherever it helps most. :)

Nanci, I think it's so sweet you still have date night with your hubby! We've been married for 27 years and date night went out the window long ago! :)
