Tuesday Meme

 Good morning! Trying to find time to post.


Welcome to Tuesday 4 in memory of  our friend Toni Taddeo..
Most people love to read.  It opens other world's to us. Autumn weather is often conducive to reading as weather can be chillier and rainy. Cozying up with a book can be a lovely way to spend some time.


1. How do you relax in the evening after dinner? By the time I get home around 7 pm, it's a rush to eat and relax for an hour. Usually, I pick up my Tablet and Play Junes Journey. Do you read in bed? Sometimes

2. What kind of books do you read? History, historical novels, cozy mysteries and mysteries.

3. Do you have a list of books you look forward to reading? No, not really...but I do need to get the new books by Laura Childs (Teashop and New Orleans series), Karen White (Tradd Street series) and Cleo Coyle (Coffee shop series). 

4. What is the best book you've ever read and why?  Hmm...I like a good book that just makes me use my imagination or where I can just forget everything that is going around me. I also like books that the characters just come alive so to speak. Or... how about the worst book you feel you wasted time reading? I don't think I have ever read a book I didn't like. NO wait, I have, but I rightly can't remember the name of it.


Yes, yes, they are.

Have a great day!

Four Somethings...

 Good morning. It looks to a little soggy day on this Sunday. Not that yesterday was a complete wash out, but the rain was pretty heavy at times, the next five days look to be the same.


Things I have loved this past weekend:


From Aldi. Apple Cider Donuts. When we lived in NY, we use to get them from Lain's Cider Mill up the road from us. How delighted I am to know Aldi carries seasonal items. Speaking of Aldi, we stopped at the one in the Villages and wow, that was a super nice store.


This stand for our K Cups. $5 from the thrift store in the Villages. 


So, I gather we are handing out candy this year, due to the fact Halloween is on a Friday. So, hubby bought these lights for the ceramic pumpkins we have. I think Walmart has skipped right over Thanksgiving, Christmas items are out and proud. I'm not quite sure what season I am in when I walk into Walmart as of late...is it Halloween? Christmas? Swimsuit season? I just roll my eyes.

Some things that went well this past week: Those three inmates that cause issues, are being moved out of my class on Wednesday. The bossman laying the law down. And finally, lesson planning.

Something I continue to learn is: One can never truly go home. Just because family tells you to come home, doesn't mean it's "open door" or any "door". Also, family can mean you're not related by blood. It has not been easy for me personally to come back here and deal with baggage/issues etc. 

Something I need to let go of: 

Donuts? LOLOL---but, but, they are so good. Another thing...expectations of ever getting Autumn weather. Because right now, at 11:15 am, it is 90*.


Well, now, that hit me like a ton of bricks. Indeed.

Wishing you all a great Sunday.
