Our Simple Life

Update

Have had much happen so I haven't been on here in a while so I'll try to cover everything.

Last Saturday (the ninth) I hurt my left hip at the gym and haven't worked out since. I'm adjusting but it was very hard the first several days! To rest is difficult for me because the thing I want to do most is MOVE!

I read a novel called A Wedding in December last week. It had me hooked and I read it pretty quickly (five days or so) but when I finished I realized it wasn't so great. The storyline wasn't that strong but the characters were very believable and Shreve describes the setting extremely well which is why I read all of it.

Currently I am reading Sea Glass. It's historical fiction-1929. So far it is good.

Hi Valerie,

I think I read "Sea Glass" but can't remember it. I enjoyed your blogs and could relate to much of it. I agree you have to be a careful advocate of your families' healthcare, and that children are rushed into nursery schools just bc everybody is doing it. If parents spent more quiet time at home with their children...reading, drawing, taking nature walks, playing games, they wouldn't need any 2K or whatever. 2K sounds like a race. I guess it is, right? Or a status symbol. Keep up the great work!
