It’s a beautiful sunny, crisp day.
I have to go to the laundromat today and wash the blankets for winter,
they don’t fit in the regular washer.
I used to love Mondays,
they were ride around town,
go for Chinese food,
kind of days.
Unfortunately, that is now a thing of the past.
Oh well ’tis life.
The summer of hell has rescinded,
and now I’m getting ready for winter.
I’m not a big fan of cold but,
I love the silence that winter brings.
I have all kinds of reading and writing projects.
My other blog bookishinmtl has been sorely neglected,
I don’t think I have written anything since July.
Anyway, I have an idea for it.
I’m going to attempt to read my way through parts of,
The Library Of America.
I will also be taking on classics I have been putting off for years,
Memoirs Of Casanova, which I have in French,
Les Liaisons Dangereuses and stuff like that.
I will also be doing some reviewing for kissedbyvenus.
I’m still not over my ego stomping summer disaster but,
I’m trying.
I thank the Goddess for this blog and,
how it allows me to “talk” about my thoughts and feelings.
Also, my friends and readers have been very supportive.
I started Cadillac Jack last night and,
I have also been reading My Year Of Meats for my book club.
Cadillac Jack seems like it’s going to be fun.
My Year Of Meats is strange,
good strange,
I think.
I’m glad I picked it for the October installment of Book Club,
it’s a challenge and,
I can’t give up on it because of my commitment.
So, come hell or highwater,
a review will appear November 1st.
Over the weekend,
many of the bloggers I follow Cass at Bonjour, Cass and Buried in Print etc
participated in a read-a-thon.
I believe I wil give it a go next year.
I love this blogging thing,
but,
I still have a lot to learn,
like life,
it is a work in progress.
Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow Canucks,
and a good Monday to the rest of you.
Later girls
BB
Oh yay!! You should totally do the readathon, it’s a lot of fun! I’ve done three so far and they keep getting better 😉 The next one is in April; I’ll be sure to keep after you to participate!
