Seventh Week Wrap

All mine! (Sometimes) I share.

   A slow and wonderful week. I was on the cusp of finishing three more books in addition to the three I reviewed, but only finished one (review to come). Time just got away and daily work had to be done.
   I'm almost finished with Tudor Portraits. I was in the middle of it when I realized that I wasn't tracking too well and so, epiphany. I decided to take notes (my husband has been teasing me about "learning on my own" since he caught me). It's great fun. I started my own personal encyclopedia of facts while I read. I know, I know, it sounds nerdy, but I am loving it. It's crossreferenced and alphabetized with bold fonts, italics and four sections. Heeheehee, I love it!
   I can't wait to add to it from other books and when I catch things that don't mesh I'll get to learn which is fact, which is fiction and which is perspective. Yowza! Do I know how to have a good time or what?!
This week saw Mother's Day, Scouts, Cheer, Camporee and the great, great news that my first has a job (Thank you, God!). My husband grilled on our new barbecue for Mother's Day dinner, perfect, and installed a new rainfall showerhead, delicious. At Camporee my second and third shot rifles, #2 compensated for the wind and got his shot in the 9 ring: awesome, #3 was homesick the first night and called me the second to excitedly tell me how he burned his hand in the peach cobbler and was having a fantastic time: wonderful.
   The week begins anew and asame, but with it will come more family tales, endless rounds of Slug Bug, Cruiser Bruiser and Cop Pop, making tracks to school and scouts and cheer, whining, scolding and laughing, watching Friends at night with my husband and, of course, more books. Same old, same old, same wonderful, terrific, fantastic.
   Sometimes you just can't help but love the same old!
