Posted in So Noted

Extraordinarily ordinary days...that's how I like to describe our day to day life here. Life is so good. Oh, sure, everybody has their ups n downs n allarounds, and that in itself is fabric of life. Such rich fabric we have.

We're living, loving, learning and laughing with one goal in mind every single day: to live it to the fullest, to enjoy the sights, the sounds, the smells, the touches--the very air we breathe.

I realize this blog post is shaping up to be, like, a sermon or somethin' ;) but I must wax on(however not-eloquent it may be) because it's what's in my heart and therefore on my tongue to speak and my fingertips to type.

Extraordinary ordinary days--nothin' better, my friends,nothin' better.

-------------------------------

Let's talk about books for a bit :) My library stack is...tall lol.

I've recently finished:

*'The Red Gloves Collection' by Karen Kingsbury- a compilation of sweet, inspiring holiday stories, these were nice.

*Another Nora Roberts/JD Robb book from the 'In Death' series-I'm hooked, what can I say?

I've finished others but I'll have to go look at the 'finished' stack before returning it to recall a few.

I'm currently reading:

*'A Town Called Ruby Prairie' by Annette Smith- I can say already that this book is refreshing and I'll be looking for more by this author. Tis my first of hers.

*'Bread Alone' by Daniel Leader- a simply delicious book on bread making. I adore bread, could be why I'm really likin' this book lol.

*'The Diary of Anne Frank'- reading this in bits n pieces with the hooligans. I want to sit down and pick out quotes n notable passages in this one sometime.

I'm like you and have been enjoying the "ordinary" things. We have so much to be thankful for. The world has so much beauty out there for us to enjoy.

You have been doing a good bit of reading. I like to read, also. I am reading the Mitford series by Jan Karon. I'm on the 3rd book.

I have to agree with you, I love the ordinary things in life too. I used to sleep late every morning that I had off of work, now I am up early every day to enjoy the beautiful day that I was given. This is also a beautiful time of year in NY and I love to enjoy the sunshine each day and the sunsets each evening.
