Thanks, y’all for all the great book recommendations! I am excited to get started. As soon as I finish the book I am reading now, then I will check out my library for one on my list. Speaking of lists, I made a page of all the suggestions you gave me. It’s called “Booklist” at the top, far right of the list of links. If you have any other suggestions, let me know. :-) Now in other news… Mrs. Garrison…

tackling projects

It’s been incredibly busy these days. I feel like I haven’t hardly had a moment to breathe! Of course, watching a movie every night for three nights in a row doesn’t help matters at all. :-) Also, this past week or so I’ve had various things to do during lunch so I haven’t had time to go home and relax like I normally do. Last weekend was nice – we were able to tackle several projects around the house. First,…
