The rain, a book and other things
Doing my morning shuffle after rolling out of bed, I heard Randy from the other end of the house call out in typical redneck fashion, “it’s raining like hell!” Somehow, I don’t think it rains in hell but occasionally we do get lucky here. Sleepy-eyed and barefoot, I padded into the kitchen and heard a beautiful sound: large drops coming down in rapid succession on the metal patio cover. We stepped out onto the patio and allowed our senses to take it all in. I voiced my thanks to God. I could smell the few honeysuckle blooms that were left (or maybe they were making a comeback). I looked through the downpour at misty street lights in the distance with wonder. This week may be our last to see such precipitation for the next three months. I hope I’m wrong.
What a great day it would be to settle in with the book that just arrived on my doorstep yesterday. My good friend in Gozo, Sabine Cassar-Alpert, just published her first novel entitled Angelina’s Ghost…and it’s a real page-turner! I just started it last night and I’m already on Chapter 7. :jump: Can’t wait to see what happens next. It’s definitely a fun read so far! You can find out how to acquire your very own copy right here.
What a um, pleasant surprise on yesterday’s soap, Days of our Lives. (Guilty Pleasure!) A new (well, new to me…maybe not to you long-time fans) character, E. J. Oh. My. Gosh. Talk about British Beefcake! :hearteyes: Hey, I’m married…not dead! See for yourself, ladies.Can’t wait to see what happens next. More rain, more good reading, more shenanigans. Life is good.
Oops… I’m speechless… no, really. I stayed away from the internet for a whole day and just wanted to quickly catch up with what I’ve missed, and find these compliments about my book… :jump: Thanks Kathy! I’m glad you like it! :hug:
