...in one week. I must be finding a lot of time with nothing to do. (Not really just can't think about what I want to do) Getting ready for a long weekend as the library will be closed Monday and Tuesday for Independence Day. I'll be spending a lot of my weekend helping Dad clean and organize his office. (It's my Father's Day present to him)
I'm hoping that I still find time to sit and read as everyone is waiting for my Evanovich book that I haven't started yet. Don't have much else to say so TTFN!

I'm breathing...
...again. My Administration/Management class is over and I pulled off another decent grade. I wish my life was exciting enough that I'd remember to blog regularly. This last weekend was exciting but I don't know how much I should say until all court trials and sentencings are decided.
I've been reading book reviews for teen books and several of them have been about blogs so that got me thinking that I haven't added to mine in a while so here I am. My not so bogus thought for this posting is; "There comes a time in a person's life where they can no longer use how they were raised as an excuse for behavior and this time should be before they are an adult." How stupid is it for a 30 year old to say he can't help lying and conning people because after all that's how his daddy did things? The Bible talks about an age of responsibility and I think that it can be described as the age where a person now responsible for their choices and actions without excuse. I know a lot of people where were raised by responsible Christian families who as adults made choices to live a sinful irresponsible manner that in no way reflects they way they were raised. If this can be true, someone who was raised in a lifestyle of lying, cheating, stealing and other detestable actions has the responsibility as an adult to choose if they will continue to live that way or if they will make good choices to govern their actions.
As far books go the ones I'm reading right now that I'm enjoying are Magic Hour, by Kristin Hannah about a child who appears in a small town, she appears to be a wild child raised by wolfs but it's up to the psychyatrist to find the truth. I'm also listening to The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime, by something Hadden. Listening help make those Lansing trips go faster. It is about an autistic teenager who discovers a neighbors dog that has been murdered and in his investigations to find out what happens he discovers more secrets than he knows how to handle. It is very enlightening to the thought process of someone with Asperger's Syndrom (form of autism) and is very well read in it's first person narrative.
