Oopsy Daisy & Woah, Nellie

Getting into the spend again.

TCOY
  1. Walked around block, pretty day.
  2. Read more of book for boot camp book group [aka book camp]--There, There by Tommy Orange. It's a novel about the Native American experience told through different characters. Then went to meeting tonight. Love those friends.
  3. Nap.
  4. Before book camp, sang Happy Birthday to Punchy's 11 year old friend. It's a gift to be around the table like that with her parents and little bro. Her Dad made pizza for dinner.
  5. Planted some tulip bulbs.

  1. Dammit, lost comment. Glad u saw positive in yesterday comment, my advice good but as I said, execution much less so. Tough issue.

    Did bang bang get better? Honestly 4th book I have put down this year after depressing opening. No traction with a book since I finished binging my crime guy months ago. Maybe have to give up current fic and head for sci fi. Hope bookclub was fun.

    1. Liz, you mean the book There, There? I did like it, though did not finish it, which is often par for the course with me and book groups, sadly. I really liked the way the male author presented the story of the almost 12-year-old girl, Opal.....
