I don't think DH & DS liked this one. The acting was very good. OK, I sorta liked it. IUN will continue the French films on Weds pm at Savannah Auditorium.

K.Gibbons

As much as I enjoyed Ellen Foster ... IMO, this one was not as good.

A special Thank You to Nicholas. He was a giant help with cleaning my refrigerator [inside and out], the ceiling light fixtures, and the outside front door. Just an excellent, all-around worker.

Another book by Kaye Gibbons

While dusting the bookcase, I found a few Kaye Gibbons books which I purchased at a library book sale. Never got around to reading them until this week. Finished Ellen Foster & started:

I think I"m about half way thru this book.

Found a nice on-line article with information on Doris Lessing, and her books, from Bookmarks Magazine. Check it out HERE

Spark Notes

So, I'm sitting in a waiting room with this little paperback book ... and have read about half of it. It reminds me so much of Holden Caulfield!!! Well written & interesting.

reading ...

Started reading it today. I'm up to page 50.

John Mayer concert is on tv [channel 50]. I like it when concerts are on t.v. Nice background music for my reading.

Audio Book ...

Started listening to this last night. Funness.

Now, back to getting the household in order .... blek .... I think there will be some corners of the place with dust bunnies. sigh

Oprah's new pick ...
