BOOKS YOU MUST READ!

these are the all time must reads for this summer!
I absolutly love,LOVE, LOVE Joshilyn Jackson, her two books:
-gods IN Alabama ~~really, really good novel, the end is a mind bender....
and
-Between, Georgia ~~ also a really really good novel, both great books to take to the beach
-LIFE OF PI by yann martel ~~a little deep, a little wierd, ALOT of big words to drag out the dictionary for. but well worth your effort
-FALLING LEAVES by Adeline Yen Mah~~ will give you insight to another world, another time & people & make you a little happier about your childhood
-Ursula, Under by....ummm I can't remember her name, but you will not be disappointed in this book, it is GREAT
-WIFE AND SISTERS by NATALIE COLLINS ~~ gREAT BOOK
AND ANYTHING BY MY HERO LEWIS GRIZZARD, GOD BLESS HIS HEART.
ANYONE HAVING READ LIFE OF PI WANT TO WEIGH IN? WAS THAT DEEP OR WHAT? OR MAYBE NOT DEEP AT ALL.

UNEMPLOYMENT--IS IT WORTH IT?

GOOD GRIEF!
has anyone had to go to the unemployment office recently?
I hope no one out there has to actually feed/support a family on this. I know they aren't supposed to make it easy for you to lay around drawing a ck. But good grief! A friend who went with me, had worked for 35 yrs same place, full time, ect ect. only got 21 weeks! and barely enough for gass money. I don't understand our governmnet sometimes.
I thought I'd like staying at home for a while. But after only 4 days I don't what to do with myself. When I worked the laundry got done everynight, dishes, ect. But now? Where does the day go? Maybe I'm not cut out to be a house wife, or maybe it'll get better.
any recommendations?

MAY 2, 2006

I just love the title of this blog. It sums up the basic things I need in life.
hmmm, there are a few more, but there's no room in the title thingie.
I need:
*a relationship with God
*my husband
*my kids to be good and do what I tell them to do. Mommy stills knows best,even when your 24,20&17.
*my blakieblakie boy
*I need to live in the mountains & just not any old mountain either. I still need to convince my husband I'm going to die if I don't.
*to drop 20 pounds
*need to go back to school, but I'm too lazy
I NEED TO FIND ANOTHER GOOD JOB, LIKE THE ONE I JUST LOST, due to NO fault of my own. The **I worked for decided to retire :(
Off we go to the unemployment office. I bet this is going to be so much fun!
I'll tell you all about it later..........
