Mine is going to be laid back if all goes according to plan. I’m going to do some birding with a friend tomorrow morning, then I’m headed to a used bookstore to buy a copy of “the pricess bride” that I talked myself out of the other day (I’ve never read it). Then I’m hitting the farmers market and then relaxing at home for the foreseeable future. Enjoy your weekend!

    My husband and I have decided to start our own book club this weekend. We are nerds and both enjoy reading but he has limited time and I have limited patience with it because I had a stroke a few years ago and it’s not as easy as it used to be for me. We’re starting with short stories and we’ll just read one at a time ad discuss when we’re done. I’m hoping it will improve my skills over time and I know we’ll enjoy the extra bonding. We’re reading A Knight of The Seven Kingdoms by George R R Martin. He’s read all of the ASOIAF books and I’ve not read any of them. We’ve both watched both of the related TV shows.

      That’s really cool. Tried to do something similar with my partner, but we didn’t end up sticking with it. We tend to have different reading habits. I like to read one book at a time and he always has a few he’s actively working through. The timing was just always off.

        I was a voracious reader for most of my life and it never occurred to me to read more than one at a time. was thinking of some other options earlier tonight for if’m into it this weekend and I finish the first story long before my husband. He has to work tomorrow and I do not. I have some options.
