Thursday Quiz-What Your Front Door Says About You




What Your Front Door Says



You are bold, brave, and easily excited.

You are passionate about what you believe.

And you're never afraid to tell people exactly what you think.

You're picky and particular. It's sometimes hard to meet your standards.

Thursday Quiz-Where Should I Live?




You Should Live in a Small City



You are definitely an urban person, but not any old city will do.

You want a city that matches you well. For you, big cities lack individuality.

You prefer a smaller city with lots of personality, local culture, and history.

A Dreary Sunday-A new poem

Alone I sit in my house,
only a snap and crackle from the fireplace
to relieve the silence.
An extra large Lazyboy envelopes my body,
my sleeping cats my only companions,
the smell of freshly made dark roast coffee
along with the heavy perfume of roses in a vase
premeates the air,
a chilly drizzle is coming down outside,
but inside I am wrapped in an old sweater.
It smells faintly of pipe smoke and old navy,
and memories of my grandfather.
What is that sound that I hear...
a flock of geese fly by overhead,
their calls break the silence for a moment.

I just finished this book. It was great. Another well told story by Webber filled with lots of giggles and many quirky characters. I loved it and recommend it.

Eternal Pleasure-Nina Bangs




I had just finished this book and found it quite enjoyable. Even though there is less humor in it unlike Bangs other books it is still a very good read. The characters are engaging and well fleshed out, the plotline is an old one but done in an unique way, and the writing was superb. I highly recommend this books.
