http://robbiespawprints.blogspot.com/2015/08/keeping-busy.html

Monday, August 10, 2015. Yes, I try to keep busy.although, lately the dogs are keeping more busy than my normal life! Poor Kalee had another pancreatitis attack this weekend so off to the vet today. She's doing fine now but we just are not sure what set this one off! I did change from her canned ID food to ID kibble.so, we will go back to the canned food. Poor baby! Hate when they get sick. I plan on hand stitching the horse in the same patterns as my original hex horse background. Labels: 2nd hex horse.

http://readingwithmymom.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html

Reading with my mom. April 28, 2010. One Word - Holmes. 8220;Crime is common. Logic is rare. Therefore it is upon the logic rather than upon the crime that you should dwell.” The Copper Beeches, The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. Robert Downey Jr. was awesome, who can resist him? I had no idea if this was an accurate portrayal of the legendary character? My mom’s love of Sherlock Holmes did not end with reading the books. Her PVR was jam packed with Holmes episodes. She really had little ti...I decided t...

Reading with my mom. August 26, 2010. Have you ever noticed how the right people come into your life at the exact moment you need them most? Not one to pass up a new opportunity, my mom joined the project. In doing so we met Dr. John Bryson.or Dr. John (as my mom would say). Dr. John was the perfect connection for mom. He's intelligent, likes travelling, LOVES reading, likes new technology, and listens to CBC radio! This novel begins with a teenage girl, Cynthia, waking up one morning to find her entire ...

http://readingwithmymom.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html

Reading with my mom. December 21, 2010. Christmas, and the holiday season, is a time for reflecting on family traditions. I hear interviewers on the radio asking "What are your family's traditions? I hadn't really thought about the things we did every single year as "traditions".but they really are. Of course the day came when I moved away from home, and moved in with Andrew. What was the first gift I purchased on our very first Christmas Eve."Twas the Night Before Christmas". Even when it wa...A prize p...

reading with my mom: The Birth House

http://readingwithmymom.blogspot.com/2011/01/birth-house.html

Reading with my mom. January 24, 2011. This novel weaves pieces of Canadian history through it's pages. Set in the days of WWI, and encompassing the great Hamilton explosion to the devastation of the Spanish Flu. I must say the passages that dealt with the Spanish Flu had me wondering why I hadn't made it to the doctor's office yet for my shot this year! I don't dare wade into this discussion. My second daughter was born in my home bathtub, with the assistance of a midwife. Reading this book I felt l...

reading with my mom: February 2011

http://readingwithmymom.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html

Reading with my mom. February 2, 2011. No thanks Dean Koontz. About a gazillion people have read these books.how? I can't do it. I guess my fear is a testament to Dean Koontz ability to pull a reader into his novels with descriptive and compelling text. Do I get too emotionally involved in the books I read, perhaps. This is one situation where I wish I could ask my mom how she could read this stuff without being psychologically scared. Although, maybe she was? Links to this post. CBC - Canada Reads.

Spannende boeken en een beetje fantasy. Is dan alles rozengeur en maneschijn? Nee, dat is het niet. Elk gezin kent kleine en grotere zorgen en dat geldt uiteraard ook voor dat van David. Op zijn werk bijvoorbeeld is een verandering gaande. David merkt dat het niet op prijs wordt gesteld dat hij de voordelen van de komst van een particuliere gevangenis in twijfel trekt. Mag hij niet langer objectief schrijven? Hoe kan hij dan nog als journalist werken? Linwood Barclay staat onderhand hoog op mijn lijstje ...
