I'm surprised that so many people I talk to don't care to read her book. I am from the other side of the fence but I like her as a person.
Sue I like to read biography books but not books about presidents and I was wondering if you got my message about which three books that you found in your closet
I started decorating my planner for 2019 today. Planners and journaling is a big craze at the moment in OZ. I been caught in the craze too it seems. But I spent most of today being creative and offline. Think that's a good thing to be! Are planners/journals a "thing" over there?
That’s very cool Ang from Oz and yes they’re are planners/journals where I am

I'm not one of them, other than using my calendar to attempt to keep track of my appointments (not always successful).
I am with Kamas, my desk calender is always full of my days and time at the BOX and which customers U need to do and what day and time. Christine I found Out if Grace by Toni Wilbarger and Changing Habits, Between Friends by Debbie Macomber I enjoy her books.

I've never been big on paper planners but I have to say if we lost the internet to an alien invasion or something I would be totally lost. I do have a blogger friend who LOVES to use planners and often shares the pages she's created with her readers.
share some pics with us of yours
ps when do you have to go back to work?
Debbie I didn’t go to work yesterday morning and this morning and tomorrow morning and it’s because I’m not feeling good
Deb, I'm back to work Monday 7th. Go back for 2 weeks, the I'm off for a week n a half for surgery (endometriosis)
Ang from Oz I hope everything goes well with your surgery and you’ll be in my thoughts
Mod
First day back to work for you Ang Happy Monday LOL
I was plagued with Endometriosis for my entire adult life it's probably why I only have one child. I finally had a hysterectomy at 42 which finally stopped the endo but they had to take out both ovaries because that's where it attached itself so I've been on Hormone replacement therapy ever since. I'm down to on estrogen pill per week but without it I will get night sweats, hot flashes etc.. still at 65 and worse of all hair growing on my face ewwwwwwww. Good luck w/surgery I will be thinking of you. How are the nieces and nephews ?
Yes back to reality and work for me :(Endometriosis definitely isn't fun, to keep it mostly in check I need to have clean up surgery every 2 years. My symptoms mostly present with bladder issues as I get the endo extensively around that area. Ovaries have been clean thus far. The doctor told me that if we are going to have children it's now or never.
Nieces and Nephew are good, haven't seen much of them the past 2 weeks as their father has been on holidays. A much needed break for Mum and I.

Ah yes I used to have surgery every 2-3 years for mine too. Yuck that's got to be a real headache.
It's good that the kids are with their dad.
Good luck lady!
I sometimes get horrible ovarian pains whenever I get my period
Started reading Dale Earnhardt 's book. It really explains a lot about his interviews that we watched when he was racing and we would laugh cuz he was such as scatter mess.
Currently reading To the Power of Three. I love Laura Lippman books! I'm going to be switching gears, though. I ordered Leah Remini: Troublemaker. I watch her show whenever I can.
Mod
Hi Rakara
First welcome to the forum!
I've never read her but after checking out some of her books I might just try her.
I've heard a lot about the Leah Remini book and it's on my wish list.
Tell me some of your favorite authors and why do you like Laura Lippman, what draws you to her writing?
Mod
. It took me a few chapters to remember everything from book one(a year ago) but after I read the last couple of chapters of book 1 I'm flying through it.. It's one of Roberts best trilogies
Deb, I just gave my Mum Book 1, 2 weeks ago, I'm in trouble with her now because she's finished reading it and I haven't bought book 2 yet! They are both on my reading list for this year! I'm eagerly awaiting Gone by Midnight by Candice Fox which comes out on Tuesday! Hi Rakara, Welcome!
Mod
They're really good Ang
I haven't read Candice Fox I'll have to check her out
Christine, I thought I had read one of her books. But when I checked it was actually Karen Robards not Karen Rose. Are you thinking of reading her books?
Mod
I don't think so. If I have it's been years ago, not recently

Hi Rakara, I too have watched her series, my sister read her book said it was good. On my to read list also.
Just finished Racing to the Finish. It's a fast read, and a really good book. You don't have to be a Nascar fan. I would say if anyone needs a quick read this one is worth it.

what channel is that series on Kamas? Very weird. Last year in my in person book club we read a book called The Bishop's Wife about a Mormon community and practices, that was strange too.
