November and December Changes


November's Book Club will be at Gloria's house, at 7pm, but we will discuss "Remarkable Creatures" by Tracy Chevalier.
December has been moved to Sunday, the 11th at 2pm (from the 18th) at Karen Massey's and we will discuss "The Christmas Mouse" by Miss Read.
Let's think up some good Grandma names for Gloria, or do you already have one in mind, Gloria?

May Meeting Happens During a Tornado


I am never going to fuss about the smallness of my living room again. Just look at my new discussion area - a cozy hallway area where the remaining five members finished discussing "Major Pettigrew's Last Stand." Gloria was partly sitting in my guest bathroom :) Pretty funny. We tried our best to discuss the book, but with Watauga's alarm system going off, hearing emergency vehicle sirens going by, listening to the TV accounts of what was going on, Ed's constant updating us on the weather news, his finding one hail ball in the front yard, and some shingles being pulled off our roof, it was a night I will laugh about for a long while. Actually, the weather at my house wasn't bad (just windy). It was the TV news scare of what could be coming at us. Luckily, we had good food. While some of our ladies have games and take-home gifts at their meetings, I gave away some food containers.

Stephanie, Ed fixed your cherry cheesecake, but we finished it up...sorry. Diane, I hope you made it home safely. I would have done the same thing if I had a child at home and a dog that would have gotten upset.

I hope you enjoy our photo.
