...you must be a real person! I have turned on a word verification process for blog comments so I don't get hit by blog spammers. I read 2 yesterday, one wanting me to spread the word about music celebrities fundraising for Katrina victims and another wanting me to join an online dating service. These people obviously do not know me or they would know that I don't forward solicitational email/blogs and dating scares me.
What will happen if you want to comment to my blog is you will have to retype letters that will appear on your screen. Machine spammers cannot read! (They should have used the library more!) I welcome your comments but please don't ask for money or a date!

Packing, packing...
...and more packing! It's amazing how one family can all move at the same time when they live in 4 different locations. Dad left this morning with a truck and trailer loaded to the limits to take to Mike and Charity in TN and then he will swing over to Nashville area and help Greg and Jeanette move to a new location. When he and mom get home Bruce and Jen should be ready to start moving boxes and furniture to their new home. As soon as they are out and everything gets painted I will be moving too! Good thing mom and dad don't plan on going anywhere!
Haven't done much reading lately so don't have much to recommend but if you like English historical romance there is a series by Julia Quinn about the Bridgerton family that is very well written. Lots of wit and humor.
As for bogus thoughts... Here is my latest that I've been spreading it around. "Birthdays are good for your health! - - - - -The more you have the longer you live!"

It's been a long, long, time...
...and I know you have all missed me! Life has gotten hectic lately. Charity and Mike up and moved to Tennessee around Labor Day, Jeanette and Greg have gotten a new job and will be moving south of Nashville. Jennifer and Bruce signed papers for their house yesterday.
Homecoming parade was yesterday and the library handed out books again. Fortunately the Teen Advisory Board helped out and did most of the walking.
The main reason I got back to post my blog is because I'm sitting here in class waiting to 9:30 and our homework assignment is to write a paper about blogging and libraries. I think I will focus mine on using a blog as a reader's advisory tool.
Speaking of Reader's Advisory here are the best books I have read recently. Chill Factor by Sandra Brown, Chill of Fear by Kay Hooper, and the one I'm really liking now is Table for Five by Susan Wiggs.
Class is ready to start and I'll try to get back sooner than later.

And vacation...
...is almost over. It has been a good week although I'm still not ready to go back to work. I was able to spend 2 and a half days with Hazel and family relaxing and visiting. Traveling was uneventful and safe. Greg and Jeanette are up for a long weekend and Greg is job hunting. Charity and Mike did a cut and run while I was gone for 2 days and are now living in Tennessee. The company he was trucking for in Grand Rapids hasn't paid him for several runs so he found a job trucking with Tenn. with a cousin.
Bruce and Jen found a house they are interested in and are waiting for an inspection and financing to be finalized. Our family is in need of prayers right now so if you believe in prayer please take a moment to ask for God's guidence on moving, jobs, and other decisions we are facing. As for me I'm planning on staying in my trailor until the floors or windows give way and then go from there.
My semester starts Saturday and I will be spending weekends at Doug and Nelda's (Uncle & Aunt) for the weekends as I also have a Monday Night class.
On the entertainment side I've been cramming on my reading because I know that school will be taking a lot of time soon. Dead End, is the 4th in the DEAD trilogy by Mariah Stewart. (Yes I realize she doesn't know how to count.) It was very good and even had some supprizes that weren't obvious so if you read her paperback trilogy of Dead Wrong, Dead Certain, and Dead Even, you won't want to miss this one. I also had a chance to read Kay Hooper's new Chill of Fear, this is the middle in another trilogy she is writing on Noah Bishop and the Special Crime Unit of the FBI. The book reminded me of the movie The Haunting. Right now I'm trying to finish Sandra Brown's Chill Factor before I go back to work tomorrow. After that I have new ones by Julie Garwood, Catherine Coulter, J. A. Konrath, and Lori Wild waiting for me plus some paperback romances that I will need to read to get over all these mystery/suspense that I'm reading.
With school starting I don't know how much I can blog but I will endeavor to keep the 2-5 of you who take the time to read this updated.
