GeneralTHC 8:18 PM

Read me a whole book today, but I feel like doing some more reading. Now, I'm not sure what, though. Had all kinds of stuff in mind earlier. Amazing how that happens.

Corey | 1411 comments 10:00 p.m. been laying in bed reading A Place Called Freedom, I'm about 50 pages into it and I'm already loving it, and I just want to keep going, but I have to get up early tomorrow morning so I gotta stop at some point, good night everyone.

✨Susan✨ (suswelch) | 904 comments Oh bye the way 79 at 4:30pm yesterday. I think Cancun sounds good too. Heck, Michelle, here I come girl, down under. I'm outa here, bringing Kathryn and Janie with me. We need to be upside down for a while, where the toilets flush a different direction. Lot of hugs Kathryn, love bug.

Kathryn (kcanty313) | 1870 comments 12:13 AM. Going to sleep. Since Monday night, I have slept horribly. I need a good night's sleep for the next two days because they will be some of the hardest days of my life. I took two Tylenol PM, so hopefully it will help. I've never been just so...exhausted. Tomorrow at six is my grandma's viewing and Tuesday morning is her funeral. I probably won't be around much until after Tuesday. I hope you all are doing well.

Thank you, Susan. (((Hugs)))

Angie | 76 comments Its 11am here and its cold but sunny which is wonderful! I've got lots of my windows open and as soon as I'm finished on goodreads and before I get caught up in my books I'm going to clean everything:-) We've not had any ice or snow where I live this winter just lots and lots of rain. So much that peoples homes in a lot of places in the UK were flooded. More than in any other year.

Kathryn I feel for you sweets! Get some rest and take care of yourself. I know this is a very sad time for you. Hugs!

11:31 a.m. and I have a lot to do today. Have to call some people about bills I don't have the money to pay. Still trying to find a home for this cat. Want to get some reading done and I most definitely need to clean my house. Also need to call the temp agency and get an update on this job that should be starting in the next week or so.

Trying to decide what I'm going to read today. There's just so much I want to read it's hard to schedule it.

Think I'm going with Cell by Robin Cook today, but that's subject to change in the next 20 seconds, as always. I think I suffer from mania--reading mania, lol.

1:06AM Had a good day today. Took some time out with family, sent off Divergent for the Traveling book, ate at a mom and pop restaurant. It was yummy. Got to watch Frozen this evening with Aeverie. Now I have started my Net Galley read on my kindle and will take it to bed with till I get sleepy. G'night GR!


message 10014: by ✨Susan✨ (new)

✨Susan✨ (suswelch) | 904 comments Sounds like you had a great day, Janie. Trying to fold myself into a book I might like. Still deciding.
Spent a long day scheduling family travel. It gets harder as our elders get older and things become more complicated as our kids become adults. There has to be a name for us midlanders... The end of the baby boomers and the beginning of the X generation. I think BeachCombers sounds good. Yuk yuk, I wish.


message 10015: by GeneralTHC (new)

GeneralTHC Hey guys this Cell by Robin Cook book is pretty good so far. I think just about anyone would enjoy this one.


message 10016: by Angie (new)

Angie | 76 comments Its 10.50 am here and I'm not doing much today. My cats a lot better after being I'll for ages. Cost a fortune at the vet but well worth to see her playing again:-)

Chuck Cell is on my tbr pile for after the new Brandon Sanderson book.


message 10017: by Pierre (new)

Pierre It's 7:10 AM. I am finishing my coffee after breakfast and mustering up my courage to go to work. Everyone is still asleep in the house. It's spring break in Quebec. I wish I could stay in bed and continue reading The Concrete Grove on my Kindle.
It's -21 C degs outside (-6 F degs). The car will be frozen solid with a sheen of frost both on the outside and the inside of the windshield. The driver's seat will be rock hard and I will be stuck in traffic for a while. Another nice, frozen work day starts. :-)

My son is down for a nap so figured I'd nip on here and catch up with everything before going back to Black House for a short while. I'm really struggling to get in to it again, after reading a few other things..


message 10019: by Pierre (new)

Pierre 9:41 AM and I just came across a true depiction of a year in Canada (and Quebec). I think the winter months pie slices are too small this year. :-)

A Year in Canada

9:59AM Very quiet here right now. I am gonna read and probably finish this book today as well. Getting ready to have some coffee too. YUM!


message 10021: by [deleted user] (new)

11:17am EST. Having a leisurely morning with coffee, my puppy, and GR. Feeling good today so getting some basic chores done. Saw my son for the first time in several days and at least he spoke to me (that's progress). I'm reading several excellent books so I guess I'll get to them! Happy Tuesday everyone!

GeneralTHC 11:39 AM

About to finish up CELL--been having good luck with genre fiction lately, specifically thrillers. I've been coming across some real good best seller-type reads. Not sure what I wanna read next, though. Maybe back to literary fiction. The The Lizard Cage might be an option. Also, need to get back to nonfiction--classics too, got to get back to WAR AND PEACE and LES MISERABLE sometime. So many books!

Hours suck BUT I GOT A JOB! Orientation tomorrow.

9:14PM Had a pretty good day. I finished The Here and Now. Thinking there will be a sequel to that or maybe a trilogy even. Gonna start on Physik now. My reading has started off great, this will be my 3rd book this month. Kayla picked out a puppy today from a friend. She is super cute. It is a pug/terrier mix. We must be crazy. LOL In 4 weeks she can come home.

Cindy that is so awesome! I am so happy for you. I hope this job works out for you. I know how stressful it can be to be without one. Good luck at your orientations tomorrow!


message 10028: by [deleted user] (new)

10:15 p.m. Started reading The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt tonight and I have come to a stopping point at 6%. Also read some in 1984 by George Orwell . Now I'm gonna read a little of The Caine Mutiny by Herman Wouk . Doubt that I'll get my 5% in for the day, but we'll see. Probably won't get to any of Drood by Dan Simmons tonight. I'm a little over half through that one. It is my "FOREVER" read (as in it will probably take me four months to finish).


message 10029: by [deleted user] (new)

TY Janie!

Shell (shellcampbell) | 757 comments You have a lot on the go at the moment Cindy!


message 10031: by [deleted user] (new)

Have five more from the library sitting here waiting to get cracked open. Number one priority right now is the new job. I'm excited!


message 10032: by ✨Susan✨ (last edited Mar 04, 2014 07:59PM) (new)

✨Susan✨ (suswelch) | 904 comments Congrats Cindy. Hope eventually you can get your hours situated.

Spent a lot of the day trying to organize travel connections, kids, dogs, and three branches of family in different states. Yikes it's tough to make all the pieces fit together.


message 10033: by [deleted user] (new)

I'm not even worried about the hours. A job is a job. I don't care if I had to shovel crap. I'm just grateful. Travel arrangements can become a beast anytime you're making them for other people. Especially when several states are involved. Good luck!


message 10034: by ✨Susan✨ (new)

✨Susan✨ (suswelch) | 904 comments Thanks I need it. Cheezz. It is like a maze. Just when I think I have it worked out I have to start over because some section won't work for somebody.

I hope you like this job better than shoveling crap. Just joshing. Lol. Good luck!! :D

12:24 a.m. Been reading for several hours now and I have orientation in the morning at 9:45 a.m. Think I'm calling it a night.
