I've read the New Testament through and part of the Old Testament...I just cannot get completely through the Old Testament. That is some hard reading, but I'm trying. I really think that I would enjoy those adult coloring books but then I think about all the other things like sewing and making little dolls that I need to finish...so I put off buying one. Mama and I used to laugh about how we both enjoyed coloring...even in a child's coloring book.Henny Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05958386938311591314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971541568171657986.post-19240499533462367492016-11-24T03:47:23.221-08:002016-11-24T03:47:23.221-08:00Hey Linda.

I used to read more than I do now but I think partly it's because I spend time at my computer. Time that I might have spent reading before I had one. Actually, you inspire me to do more things outside. You're the main reason I wanted a bunny too. And just by some strange coincidence someone abandons theirs. Isn't that strange?<br />Have a lovely quiet Thanksgiving Granny Marigoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15858237999602347848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971541568171657986.post-22591380261571281812016-11-23T18:17:25.387-08:002016-11-23T18:17:25.387-08:00I have read all Jan Karon's books, and loved t...I have read all Jan Karon's books, and loved them. I love to read, my goal is to read 75 books a <br />year, last year I read 78, including my Bible. (I read through it every year, different version<br />each year). Don't think I will reach 75 this year, am at number 62 right now. I have started the<br />adult coloring & love that too, it is taking some of my reading time!

They're at the lowest price all year so I bought one to fix for us next week. We love leftovers and when we go somewhere else, we don't have them! I bought a second turkey so we can have one at Christmas when my sister and brother-in-law come here. Holidays are a lot of work, but there's nothing like being with family. I've never read any of those books. I'll have to put them on my list. Right now I'm in the middle of a 500 page book, so it'll be a while, and a friend gave me 2 books a couple of days ago.
