    Hi Mary, I thought I was doing well a few years ago when we ind of got stuck with 6. two we already had and a mum and her three babies, could not give the to the Cat Society sfter we had tamed therm (the were born feral to two tame cats). So we took them on. Lots the mum to a car the following year, she was a dasher across a back road but still got killed. We now have only the two left of the original three kittens. All the rest of our cats have passed one for one reason or another, mostly illness. These are around 13 yrs old now so will not last too much longer, cartainly our female has back problems. What a wonderful bounty though.

    Hello Mary, Just popping to say 'Hi'. I love the cat picture. Have had 6 at one time, they have been whittlerd down by age, illness, and other reasons. We have only 2 now and they are 13 yrs, brother and sister, feral born. The boy never loses his edge, his love of the outside , his wariness of anything that is different , odd.

    Hi Mary!
    Everything is well. My husband is doing very well, the meds are working great! I am really enjoying the Little House books, on my second one. I am also pluggong through Alias Grace. It is interesting but not an easy read.

    Hi Mary!
    I've not finished Dante yet. It's slow going and I'll read a little at a time. It would be so helpful to have someone next to me deciphering for me! At least I'm trying.

    Good to hear from you! Capture the tag is a game on Play Book Tag (a Shelfari group) We are competing to win the most book tags by reading the least amount of books in the least amount of time. I do NOT expect to win, but it is fun to see how far I can get!

    Just got my decorations down this week, thanks to my wonderful husband. I got a snowman in an Army uniform with an American flag from my son's godparents and i'm keeping that up.

    We had six inches of snow yesterday and it is very cold, I am not sure of the temp. but I know it is supposed to be 9 tomorrow AM brrrr!

    I got Eclipse, Breaking Dawn, TheOutliers, Crime Brulee, Shakespeare at Christmas(?) mught not be the right title and a couple of Christmas mysteries, can't remember the titles.

    I hope you are doing well also.

    I've only read two and the Blood one is the first of that series I read. It was good, but I should start from the beginning so I have the complete background on the characters. It was Marlene's book, so maybe she could tell you more.

    Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, Happy New Year with Love, Peace, and Joy!

    Here in Gresham, Oregon, Mother Nature let loose with a snow mostly ad ice rain storm with high winds that lasted on and off over a week...a record snow fall here on the valley floor. Around here, it snows in the mountains but rains in the valley. We had a bit of melt today, but we still have plenty of the white stuff left for a white Christmas and maybe even a white New Years! First time that I can remember. WOW!

    Hope we can make it to my sister-in-law's house for Christmas. It's a toss-up. Her place is booted up against the hills, and so is colder than our place. Travel here has been pretty much paralyzed for about a week, and is just now starting to creep forward. So, we may have to put off our celebrtion for a while. But, it will happen. Besides, it isn't when you celebrate, it's that you do celebrate and recognize what it's all about...in my humble opinion.

    So, you and yours have a great one! Stay safe and healthy!

    I've really enjoyed every Harlan Coban book I've read. I'll keep buying his stuff. I have quite a few you can borrow if you'd like.

    Mary, Thank you for the invitation! I accept! We do have a lot of books in common. I LOVED the Bourne books. I read them a long time ago and then saw the movies. I think it would be interesting to reread them after seeing the movies.

    Hi, Mary! I haven't read "Halloween Murder " yet. Do you recall the author? Was it a renemed Agatha Christie book? So far, I haven't read Martha Grimes yet. I will have to check her out. So many books, so little time. LOL!

    I like Sue Grafton, although she is not one of my favorite authors. In fact, I kind of introduced my husband, John, to mysteries through several of her audio books...one was "R is for Ricochet (the dreaded spelling!), but I don't remember the rest. I listened to them right along with him, but I don't retain books I've heard as well as books I have read.

    I still need to read "T is for Trespass".

    I have Kathy Reichses latest or second to latest book on hold at the library. I can't remember the title. I do remember that there are a lot of holds (20 or more, if I remember right) before me, so it may be several months before I get the loan. Oh well, it's not like I will starve for reading material before that.

    I still need to finish the Reigning Cats and Dogs series. Cynthia Baxter has a new book out in a new series. I don't remember the name of the series, but the book is called "Murder Packs a Suitcase". I read a few pages at the bookstore, and it sounds really good.
