finished it, loved it

last night i finished 'the chosen' what a great book. i cried. has anyone read any of the authors other books? 

i am excited to start reading P and P. i love that book and i love it even more everytime i read it.

just wanna say

 i for one, LOVE our book club meetings/junk food eating/gossiping nights. 

i love each of you girls so much. and i really appreciate how we have similar beliefs but all have different opinions and ways of doing things. i like that about us. 

i think we are cool.

Who's this 'Megan' person?

haha! totally kidding, Megan! Yeah, ummm, our "book" club meetings usually have NOTHING to do with the book, I mean, it started that way and they have morphed into a social gathering of sorts. We talk and eat. So you're welcome to come, if you can, busy mama. No obligations. You can stay for as long or as short as you want.
Oh, and people, I apologize for how in-depth the book goes into Jewish principles and whatnot. I read it a l-o-o-o-n-g time ago and I think I just skipped the parts where they really get into explaining the Talmud and all that. It was a bit much, at times. But, I hope you all enjoyed it, those who have read it.
And Steph J. -- I totally forgot to bring that book to you. So, tomorrow?? Sorry.
See you tomorrow!

Thursday, Jan. 22, 8 p.m.

yes, so be there! my house. i guess it'll just be the usual: chatting while snacking, so bring a treat of your choice! call me for directions, or come prior to that date and we can play in the pool up top. there is guest parking, too. see you then!

i went on tuesday and picked up 9 books for $1.60. yes you heard me right $1.60!! i got up to the register thinking i was already getting a steal of a deal when the lady said it was half price day!! so then i got everything for half off. i was ready to go back and look for more. 

so, if you have not checked out this resource YOU SHOULD!! it is a great deal on used books, magazine,even games for toddlers. i picked up a copy of the chosen along with huck finn, tom sawyer, the scarlet pimpernel, some louis lamours for marc, a make it yourself wood working book and a few crafting books for me. 

if you are a student or know any students, they also have some textbooks and stuff. seriously, check this out!! hours are listed on the side bar----->

the chosen shindiggg

okay, so who cares if you didn't read the book. it is a really great story, though, and i recommend that you read it at some point in your lives, if not now...

i was wondering what night would be best for ya'll to meet. how about next thursday, jan. 22, 8-ish at my house? and did you want to watch the movie or just talk? or we could combine it with Echo's Pampered Chef party. please let me know what would work best...and we can bring a snack to share, too. it has to be kosher, though.

haha, just kidding. if you don't get it, it has to do with the book...

hope to be able to see all your faces soon!

the chosen

has anyone finished this book yet? if so, could i borrow your copy?

also, i will be heading down to the Kaneohe Friends of the Library on tuesday around noon, is anyone interested in coming down with me. they usually have quite the collection of old and classic books. also a pretty good children's section. 

let me know. 

thanks
