I'm Going to Read Now...




Well, I have taken some days off writing, and although it has been a great Thanksgiving Weekend, wonderful visiting with mom (and having HER turkey dinner!!) and enjoying a trip to the corn maze, I have found myself with no words!

Perhaps I am just ABSORBING, taking it all in and savoring it. Maybe I am still stuck in the blahs? I suppose it is a combination of them both.

My mind is feeling a little, hmm, listless? So, brilliantly, I decided to sign out some “food for thought” kind of books from the library today. A selection of Stillness Speaks – Eckhart Tolle (one of my favorites!), The Secret Life of Water – Masaru Emoto and, da da da, Philosophy 101-Selections from the Works of the Western World’s Greatest Thinkers. Well I sit here now pondering “what the heck I was thinking” with that last selection!! Firstly, I intended to find something on EASTERN philosophies (distracted by Makiya’s “Maaahhh-mmeee” as she raced through the library with poor Grandma!) and secondly, wow, is this really what I want to tackle right now?! I’ve found some DEEP reading here!! Ah, well, as I said, something to stimulate the brain; I suppose I found THAT!! I AM excited about my selection though, however slightly daunting one of them may be!!

So, instead of struggling some MORE with my words, I think it is time for me to settle in with my books and re-charge myself!!

PS. I am thankful for the wonderful time with family and of course the MANY smiles and laughs that my daughter brings me every day!!

Enjoy your books, Laurinda. Thank you for a wonderful visit, as always. Loads and loads of love from Mom.
 
It was a QUICK one as always!! Like we said, between naps, travel etc., never enough time!!
Thanks for the yummy dinner, and Makiya OBVIOUSLY loved the Turkey Stew tonight!! xoxo
 
Your little girlie is adorable. And I, too, savor having a fresh stack of books from the library. Speaking of which, I'm about to head there with my own toddler in a few moments. He'll be thrilled, and I'll pick out some Dr. Seuss while he plays. Then we'll read before his nap. Precious moments!
 
Oh yes Rhonda, very precious moments!! It makes me so happy to see my (and my mom's) love for books in my girl!!
 
Blogger is being funny and I don't think that worked!

I think you pictures are worth a thousand words! They are wonderful.
Happy Belated Thanksgiving!
