Fine, you win the staring contest AGAIN!


Book meme:


Grab the nearest book.

* Open it to page 56.

* Find the fifth sentence.

* Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.

* Don’t dig for your favorite book, the cool book, or the intellectual one: pick the CLOSEST.

So far Saturday is living up to the promise of being dark and potentially rainy. Woo hoo! One of our neighbors across the street is having a garage sale so I'm watching that on occasion. Avery, who is about 5 or 6 now, is on their lawn doing little dance moves -- bouncing on her hip and doing head bobs. In the yard behind us, the german shepherd puppy (well, she's probably a year old now) has a visitor white dog and they're running and chasing and nipping at each other all over the yard. Tug is on his bed looking out there but his eyes are blinking a lot so he's off for sleepy naptime soon.


I'm not sure what we have planned for the day. Steve is still sleeping but mentioned he may go to the shop to do some metal recycling because he's got a big pile sitting there. I may go to a place that may help with my dead cellphone -- or I may just call there to see what's what. It's down in the middle of the shopping zone and on weekends, if one can avoid that area, one stays home. Otherwise, I need to read my 4ma digests and blogs then I should get laundry going and then get on the downstairs computer to work on some stuff. Hey, maybe this could be a productive day.
Oh, I see that Avery is being a little mercenary -- she has a lemonade stand set up to catch those soft-hearted garage sale bargain hunters. Good for her!
Happy Saturday, all!
Much love,
PK the Bookeemonster
