My last two appointments with Dr. V. have been canceled. I'm attempting to bumble along.
I was gobsmacked yesterday out of the blue with a recurring concern: the privacy of my children with all the blogging that I do. Specifically, the pics. I'm thinking on what I want to do, I feel a change is coming.
Began reading The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo yesterday. And found myself bopping over to the computer at the end of each chapter to google various Swedish and/or Eurocentric words. This tickled me. I'm enjoying the book so far and find it interesting that I thought the main character was a teenager. She's not!
Feeling like a pupa. A pupa within a pupa. There's plenty of hum within. Hormonal, viral, organic, toxic. A mix gutty, as opposed to, heady. This kind of heavy internal churning takes and slows energy, yet, of course, time marches on. The people and events on my calendar/in my physical space keep me tethered to the here and now. How I feel is paradoxical: grateful for the connection despite a longing to be left alone.

I started reading the book but loaned it to my Dad because he can read it much faster. He gave it back and I need to start reading it again. But right now I'm reading A Year in Provence.
We can take naps when I visit as part of your alone time :-)
Seeing you is above and beyond...I hope you know that :-) xo
You're the second person from whom I could have borrowed the book. I have to try to remember to ask about borrowing books before buying them. I made an exception in buying this book bc I wanted to read it a lot, the wait for a library copy was going to be long, and I found it at Amazon for 50% off. But, borrowing is cheaper :-)
I also have the second book so if you want to borrow that one let me know. I think my dad may be reading it right now.
I would love to :-)
LOVED this book and the second one also! I am on the library waiting list for The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest right now. Just started "The Lacuna" by Kingsolver...the beginning is a little slow...
I am a fan of Barbara Kingsolver... The Poisonwood Bible is one of my favorite books. I borrowed The Lacuna from the library and couldn't finish it on time (this was back when it was a brand new book). I found the beginning slow, too. I've heard it picks up significantly after the slow start. I'll go back to it someday...
