One of the items on my THINGS TO DO WHEN I RETIRE list was to join a book discussion group. This week I attended one just to see what it was like.....and I LOVED it. They were discussing a book titled We Need to Talk about Kevin. Interesting intelligent discussion...and I jumped in a little even though I hadn't read the book... and guess what? They asked me to join...so I did! The girl sitting next to me loaned me her copy of the book with the stipulation that when I finished, I would call her so we could dicuss it for a half hour! She wrote her name down......Judy Herbstreit....Kurt's mom...(former Centerville quarterback, former OSU quarterback, presently a TV sports announcer!)
Our next book is The Girl from Purple Mountain........I already have my copy and will begin it just as soon as I finish Clapton...about the famous Erik! One of my classroom mothers sent me a great book, The Blue Highways, after we returned from our Route 66 trip. Its about a fellow who travels all over the USA on the little minor roads, the ones colored blue on maps. He did just what we did, traveled without a schedule, ate at local places, and tried to meet the hometown folks! Thanks Barb! If any of you read these books PLEASE let me know your opinion!! I just LOVE to read!
Alsoooooooooo this week, my movie and lunch bunch met in an emergency session to catch the opening of 17 Dresses. Funny movie! Not one that Larry would have cared for, but it made me laugh right out loud.......Go see it with some girls!
Finally, our friends Leigh Ann and Marty's son Andy was married this weekend in Columbus! Beautiful black and white wedding (even the guests) .and a MOST FUN reception! Hang On Sloopy O H I O was a popular song!! Outside was below zero, but inside was toasty warm wih love for family and friends! Have an exceptionally happy life Andy and Ashley!
