the paper comes out twice a week around here and we got the paper both times last week but never saw anything about what happened. lol it figures lol but i would have to believe it was drugs, just that i never saw a lot of traffic going in and out of there so i really don't know! i do know that this weekend they were out front of their place, loud and blowing off firecrackers the other night! CRAZY! i was glad when i heard somehting about the LAST ONE! lol i worry about ambers or hot ashes starting a fire out here! guess i am the only one who worries about that! lol
the weather here has been crazy too. heard the weather guy say it's been acting like the stock market! lol but it has been very chilly one day and then 80 the next! the mornings are chilly but the day usually warms up nicely!
i have been still doing a lot of reading! Finished Gracie a Love Story by George Burns and it was soo good! Almost done with All My Best Friends by George Burns and it is BETTER than Gracie! lol It seems, when i go to read a small paragraph to DH i wind up reading him PAGES! lol it is full of WONDERFUL stories about George and his best friends (some being, Marx Brothers, Jack Benny, Al Jolson).
Almost done with Hard Candy, A True Story by Charles A. Carroll too!
This is about a boy and his brother put into the system's institutions simply because no one cared! Heart wrenching! One of the stories shared in this book is a footnote mentioning another book titled The State Boys Rebellion by Michael D'Antonio which tells a similiar story of a boy and his life. In the institute this boy was in, it says, this boy and others were, without their knowledge, given radioactive oatmeal as part of an experiment conducted by MIT and Quaker Oats! sounds to me like that may be the next book i read!!!
You can check out any or all reviews of these books in the links provided, let me know if you do too!
