E. | 653 comments I've read a handful of books a second time. But, like Lynn, there's been 20-30 years between, or more!
A couple of them were for BOTM reads for different groups, and two were the last I read in a series to remind me what was going on so I can continue in the series. But one was also from 20 years ago -the PREY series - and one Odd Thomas
You're right. Thrillers or mysteries, once you know, you know.
Done and on to the next....

I love guys who like chick lit. My brother likes "girl flicks". I bet you have a pink shirt, doncha, Aaron? Real men wear pink. No kidding.

David Staniforth (davidstaniforth) | 1127 comments I have no pink shirt, but I do like chick lits and flicks.

Hey, ..."


P. S. I think a new profile pic with your fave pink shirt would be awesome.

I would buy a pink shirt if I were a guy. Many women like men who have the confidence to do stuff like that.


message 3859: by Sharon (new)

Sharon Mccall I hate gardening but I do love growing veggies I usually have tomatoes lettuce carrots rhubarb strawberries apples chillies and peppers

I don't own any pink shirts I hate pink.

I often re-read books. I do it with books I really love or I will often re-read a series if there is a new book coming out so that I can remember the characters and their storylines

not sure going to the gym tonight was a good idea but I survived just lol - I will be so glad when I am back to where I was before I got injured

Hope everyone has a great day!

I've had a lazy morning finishing Ty's The Reluctant warrior.
Really good, love Ty's writing.

Now going for my first game of tennis this year now it is getting a bit warmer!

Then taking my mum a present and flowers for Mother's Day tomorrow!

Do you guys in the US celebrate Mother's day?

Have a great day all!

Wow thank you. Happy that you liked it.


message 3875: by E. (new)

E. | 653 comments So there I was, eating potato chips when I noticed one chip looked like a butterfly. I decided to google it and discovered it was actually a moth. This got me to thinking of relationships, and I asked myself a question...where do I come from? Whoever my ancestors are, we must stick together. It helps me think when I bake, so I decided to bake a pie, but my pie tin was 3.14 inches too small, so I dug around in my closet for a bigger tin, and I came across an old box filled with crayons and glue and blunted scissors, and then a spider crawled out of the box. I was about to smack it with my bottle of Elmer's glue, but instead I scooped it up and set it out the front door. Overall this was a Happy Day.

Ter'e Crow Lindsay (terecrow) | 798 comments Discontinuous.......That is a new one for me. Titas...I am right there with you.
Y'all on on my mind.......and I hate not being cught up..........but life gets in the way.

I feel like a juggler with boo-boos. Trying hard to keep up with the hopeful sale of our home.......and staggering around with my dang vertigo and sore leg/hip. How old am I????? i feel 90 these days.

That's why we all are like family. If you have a blue day - then I have one with you
