We've had so much rain that my paths are disappearing and growth is rampant. I haven't done much stitching, although I'm trying to finish a few pieces now, and so haven't had much to post on Bayou Quilts.jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-52080492588406111722007-06-23T22:32:00.000-05:002007-06-23T22:32:00.000-05:00Am glad you are well.

I make deals with myself, then cheat. :/<BR/><BR/>Jill - Thanks for the sympathy! <BR/><BR/>danielle - I've finished <I>Sword & Blossom</I> now--and really enjoyed it...but I'm a history buff. Circumstances dictated that this one only got read in short segments, but I looked forward to them.<BR/><BR/>kimy - Hey, girl! Yes, I've had limited computer time and the computer doesn't always cooperate when I do have time. I did stick with this novel; mainly because that NPR review had stuck with me, and I felt I had a commitment. However, I do "abandon" :) books occasionally. <BR/><BR/>I have cycles when everything in my stack pleases me, and times when several books will leave me cold. I'm glad your recent selections have been winners!jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-52930213093726193222007-06-22T17:01:00.000-05:002007-06-22T17:01:00.000-05:00just caught up on things!

I have the daily habit of clicking on bayou quilts but there hasn't been a new post for a bit and this morning I (finally) had the good idea to check 'the garden' - well duh! why didn't I think of this a week ago! I won't make that mistake again! thanks for all good head's up on books - what to follow up on and what to avoid (I will abandon abandon) there's so many books and so little time...although I admire you for sticking with the book and finishing it...but to write a review you must finish, I have the luxury of abandoning books if they continue to disappoint! luckily all my selections of late have been winners.... good to get caught up on things, altho' I'm sorry to hear about continuing probs with the computer.... I hate those issues!mouse (aka kimy)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09385557065971602436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-52128153934715894112007-06-22T13:48:00.000-05:002007-06-22T13:48:00.000-05:00I have a copy of the same book as well that I hope...I have a copy of the same book as well that I hope to start reading this weekend.
