Grace in Small Things 1xx/365 (5/12 & 5/13)
- This week sucked, but it is almost over
- Got to see Shannon’s parents again
- Finished “Archangel’s Kiss” – was good; will buy the next book when it comes out
- Sugar cane mastery
- Found a bunch of books I wanted at the Half-Price bookstore:
- – “Silent in the Sanctuary,” the second Lady Julia book by Deanna Raybourn. Now to hope that somebody takes the first and third books to Half-Price Books, as well :)
- – three books by Sherry Thomas (an author my library does not carry) – I am in a mood for a nice Victorian romance….
- Judicious fiddling with a paperclip has straightened the pins in my cellphone charger unit, so now I don’t have to get a new one
- My husband is so good with the little pests
- Free coffee at work. Blessed stimulant.
