Tag, I'm it!

Well I have only been here a short time and I'm tagged already...Yay!

Well although my book was a good one, page 123 wasn't very interesting sorry. But I will play by the rules and here it is.  The crunch of hoarfrost under their feet, the stinging cold on their faces, the feel of the sled rope in his hand---and Peggy with her head wrapped in the red kerchief. It was the best thing they'd ever done. " I like that'n." He pointed ahead. This book was Home to Holly Springs by Jan Karon.

So since that wasn't very interesting there was a poem quoted by the main character that I quite liked. Here you go.

  " A crust of bread and a corner to sleep in, A minute to smile and an hour to weep in, A pint of joy to a peck of trouble, And never a laugh but the moans come double.  And that is life. A crust and a corner that love makes precious, With a smile to warm and tears to refresh us, And joy seems sweeter when cares come after, And a moan is the finest of foils for laughter and that is life."

I was tagged by Floridasunsets. I am not tagging anybody else yet cause I am still learning this thing!

 

 

 

This past week has been soooo busy. Busy for us homebodies at least! We started off Monday with a dentist appt. for DS. This was his first one and he was very excited. The excitement didn't last when they told him he had to have 2 teeth pulled due to over crowding.Poor guy.Then we had to hurry home to clean the house for the stamp workshop I was hosting that night. Tuesday morning I had to be up early to get to the election polls. I am a poll worker  and we had our   primaries. It was a very long day. Plus my babysitter canceled at the last minute so I had to find another one which is not an easy task when you NEVER use a babysitter GRRRRR. Wednesday was a little calmer although I could not wake up and get it together. Thursday I had the dentist appt. and my sitter canceled on me again double grrrrr. Friday DS just did not want to work. Maybe he was still asleep too. For the most part we got all of our school work done, yay! I thought it would slow down this week but the Dentist  called me late Friday afternoon wanting to move DS appt. to Monday. Then I remembered a dear friend's baby shower is Tuesday afternoon and DS team ropes that day as well. Of course Wed. is church and hmmm its starting all over again isn't it? Oh well, at least I don't have to find a babysitter for my little one this week!
