A change was in store, so here is me and the whole family. I'm the one in the Red Hat. This was my youngest daughter's 30th birthday party, and her sister suprised her with the Alice in Wonderland theme!!

    Thank you for your input on the other Georgette Heyer books, I will definitely give them a try! I do love the regency romance novels. (The ones I've read anyway, lol)

    Lol Gayle, that could prove to be a case of the blind leading the blind - my mind seems to go missing on a regular basis, too! I'm blaming middle age, myself... Let me see, I think we were talking about Tudor books and you mentioned participating in Tudor Impersonation fairs, something like that... and you said you had a picture with the fashion of the time?

    Greetings CROAH member!


    We are now accepting nominations for the next group read to cover the fourth US President, James Madison.

    Please send your suggestions via one of 2 ways:

    a) a private note to either Regina or Dog Lover (this method reveals your email address to us), or

    b) use the "Questions About this Group" text box found on the member's tab. This sends an email to both administrators and masks your email address.

    Please do NOT post your nomination to the site's discussion tab.

    Please include the title, author, and brief description of the book. It would also be nice if you included the Shelfari book page URL.

    Nominations will be accepted through the 18th. Nominations will be posted and voting will take place through the 25th. We will post the selected book on the 26th.

    Because we are approaching the Holidays a revised schedule will be followed for the remainder of 2009 and beginning of 2010. We will vote for the Madison read in October, post discussion questions in November, skip December, vote on Monroe reads in January, and post discussion questions in February.

    A suggestion has been made to continue the extended reading schedule past the Holidays and provide 2 months between book selections. We would be interested in hearing anyone's thoughts on this. Would it help you? Would you lose momentum? Are you too busy to participate on the current schedule.

    Please post your comments on this proposed scheduling change to the nomination thread found at http://www.shelfari.com/groups/34700/discussions/146618/James-Madison-Nominations-are-Open

    The four books we've chosen since the group started have been fabulous. We look forward to seeing the nominations for the fifth.

    Thanks,

    Regina & DL

    You might be right, Gayle, perhaps it's better to read about the period from a safe (and civilized) distance! My email is sabina_ehlert@westnet.com.au - would be great to see that picture! :)

    Thanks - I am just starting to figure Shelfari out...Good Reads is totally confusing - this is a little easier.

    Hi Gayle! How are classes going? I hope this term is proving to be enjoyable rather than stressful!

    Okay, I like Medea, but I think she should have gotten revenge on Jason by poisoning him and not his bride.

    I'm always here for you Gayle! LOL
    Sometimes waiting to the last minute works because some people work better under pressure. =)
    Who's Medea? I need to look that up. =/

    Alien's not quite the word I'd use to describe him or think of him as. He was a horrible person that took advantage of his power. (gee sounds like a lot of people today) LOL
    I'm glad it's you that has to write this paper and not me. But if I can help in anyway, let me know.

    Hello Gayle,
    Best wishes to you on writing about Gilgamesh. My son and I just read about him last week for school.
    I hope you had a great weekend.

    Hi Gayle--I was just on the Occult Books group and I really like it--I want to send you a private note, but my email is not working for some reason, just to let you know! Don't think I'm ignoring you if I don't respond! Hopefully my husband will get it going tonight, but I have to work tomorrow.

    Your, Kiki

    Congratulations on going back to school and getting your degrees. I keep telling myself "one day." But my road block is taking math for an English lit degree or even History. LOL
    Thank you for adding me as a friend. =)

    Hi Gayle,

    Wonderful that you liked the idea of chatting to someone in Europe. The Netherlands isn't a large country, but centuries ago, my country was the leading economy in Europe, like the United States are now.
    About me: I'm a senior student in cultural science with affinity to art and social history. I'm especially interested in the Middle Ages, so I'm doing a lot of reading on that matter.
    I'm married for 35 year almost and live in a small town near the Dutch coast. In the past (before 9/11) I exchanged a lot of emails with some American girls, but a lot of things changed after that terrible date. I'm glad I can have a word with some new friends, especially with some one who like books a lot.
    Love Sylvia Christina

    A few years ago now when I first joined--I guess around Easter of 2007--so they were about 6, 10 and 11. They're fun. These are "chickens with an attitude"! Some friend of my husbands bought my little boy a toy hummer truck and the Easter chicks fit so perfectly!
