No, You Aren’t Crazy ==

 I have taken down my last post.  It was just me venting about stuff I shouldn’t have been venting about.  I decided it wasn’t entertaining or interesting at all and had no reason to be here so, moving on. But, if you read it and now you can’t see it that is why — you aren’t crazy.

I just finished my 10th book in my 2023 Goodreads Challenge — “Are You There God? It’s Me Margaret”.  I looked at the book years ago for Bean but it was too old for her at the time and I didn’t think about me reading it myself.  However, with the movie of the same name coming out I thought I would read the book and I am glad I did.  It was good.  It was about a 12 year old girl facing physical changes, learning about her family, questioning her religion — all things we have all done.  It is relatable and funny and I was sorry to see it end.  

I am still reading “Echoes of Old Books” too but it really isn’t holding my interest so much.  I will finish it because so many times when I don’t find a book interesting it turns out to be very interesting as I get into it so we will see.

Ok, that is it for now.  Thanks for stopping by.

Well, I'm happy to know I'm not crazy *smile*.
I read Are You There God, It's me Margaret some years ago. I didn't know that there was a movie about it now??? Seems like it would be hard to make that book into a movie.
I hope your week is going well.

Well, sometimes I see things and then can’t find them again and I question myself! Yes, there is a “Margaret” movie and I will watch it when I can stream it (don’t go to theaters too much anymore). I enjoyed the book but I honestly think it was more enjoyable from an adult POV than it would have been had I read it when I was that age. Of course, it came out way after I was that age anyway but…

Hello BB! I am not sure if I have read Are You There, God? . . .
I'll find it.
I hope you have a cheery day xo

 Yes, it has been a month — and what a month it has been.  Long story short all the grafts from my husbands bypass surgery have disappeared ...
