Slow Down and Read

Believe it or not, I took off for Seattle in such a big hurry that I didn’t even grab a book.  Not even my Bible.  (That would be even more embarrassing if it weren’t for the fact that a skinny little New Testament is a permanent resident of my purse.)  I did take a little stack of bills, thereby averting the disaster that late fees can pile on top of emergencies like these.  And I took my ipod, but forgot about it most of the time.

I found the quiet (in my head) rather therapeutic.

However, if I had thought of it, I would definitely have taken Brenda Kinsel’s Fashion Makeover: 30 Days to Diva Style!, which my sister and I are reading at Imogen’s recommendation.  Would you care to join us?

In the meantime, blog reading (I’m trying to get caught up on my blog-reading, but if I missed your fall wardrobe post, please send me the link):

And Yikes!  Has the weather turned suddenly in your neck of the woods?  It’s been wool all week for me.

  1. I’m currently reading Eat Pray Love, by Elizabeth Gilbert, which I’m really enjoying, and I’ve just had a big order from amazon arrive on my doorstep, so would take one of the many books that I ordered, from When Organising isn’t Enough SHED your stuff change your life- Julie Morganstern, or Shop Your Closet by Meelanie Charlton Fascitelli, to Leatrice EWisman’s The Color Answer Book.

    We’ve had a turn in the weather for the better today – a balmy 24 degrees (celcius) and sunny, excellent day to dry some washing.

  2. I think I’ll get Kinsel’s book out of the library again. I did enjoy it my first time through and I’d love to tandem read it with you and your sister. I’ve also ordered Shop Your Closet – which Imogen is reading, so my few spare seconds will be full.(: It’s unusually HOT here in Michigan. Everyone is pulling their shorts back out!
