Oh and i just finished yet another book called The Glass Castle by Jeannette Walls. oh and if you click the link to check the book out for yourself, please scroll down a tad and check out the video done by Jeannette herself!! very touching & powerful! i could hardly put the book down and wasn't surprised to see a review very similar left on the book site:
WHAT A COURAGEOUS MEMOIR - - BRAVO!
First, "The Glass Castle" is a real page turner - - I couldn't put it down and finished it in about four hours - - a record for me!

It's probably the most thoughtful and sensitive memoir I can ever remember reading - - told with such grace, kindness and fabulous sense of humor.

As always please let me know if you pick up one of these books or hear about them elsewhere, i would LOVE to hear your opinions too! :D

As for my back, well, i have another appointment on Monday but it should go well since i am able to sit at the computer longer and actually get things done here. lol sheesh that was a LONG three months for me! lol oh and i recently started learning belly dancing (yes, at my age, can you imagine? lol) but it is sincerely fun and a good workout! and i do keep in mind while doing the hip bumps, not to do them as hard as i should... not yet anyways lol My biggest problem is lack of space here but i am getting all the shows (Shimmy on FitTv)
Well,now the hubby wants to do ebay so i am off to get some challenges done! :D Thanks so much for your visit and i hope you have a GREAT weekend!

Gorgeous Layout Shirley! What a beautiful owl ?) Glad you are doing better and your back is on the mend. Ive heard belly dancing is excellent for the back muscles - as you said easy at first, dont want to re-injure your back.
All well here - just on the go - lucky if we are home 1 day a week these past two months...maybe next month a little more home time, and scrapping time.

Take care now and hi to John too!
Big hugs, Robbi and Mike
