"Making Lemonade"


Holy Blog, Batman! This is so overdo for a new post I am ashamed of myself! With the thousands of readers I have just waiting for something new from me to read, I have been wanting for inspiration but sometimes you have to just shoot from the hip and hope the you are going to make it happen. Wow, what an order to fill! First of all I want to thank all members of the book clubs for bearing with me as I know I have been posting meetings later than usual. You may not even have noticed, but I have. Same with writing the book's synopsis's, late again. But all that is changing. I have been given a new lease on life and am going to change my lackadaisical ways. A new day is about to dawn on this LBC member. The divorce thing just took the wind right out of my sails. Now why should it? From finding out my husband had a girlfrind, to filing for divorce was just a little over six weeks. What is that in a lifetime, really? It will take me longer than that to clear out his side of the closet. And when I do boy howdy will I have a great closet! And now I've decided I deserve new furnishings. Yippee! If he gets to live it up in LoDo, than I'm going to live it up in Longmont! Hey, it could happen! He gets whatever I decide he can have, and I'm keeping the good stuff. Today my brut of a son is coming to help me cart off whatever I decide that is, to a storage unit so I can get on with my life and back to the business of reading. Yes, I'll admit it right here. I have been derelict in my duties besides maintaining websites. I don't think I've read a lick of anything - not even Glamour Magazine - since the bomb dropped on my life. Fortunately, I've already read the books on the lists, but that is changing. My fellow members in their bookish ways have chosen some books long sought after, but not yet read books from my to-do list and I need to get busy! My life shifts and darts and dodges around, but the LBC stays pretty steady and I'm grateful for that, giving me peace where sometimes there isn't any. I've got to remember that, and I've got to remember to keep the good stuff! ( I'm going to hide his black Italian silk shirt though!)
