Deep Thoughts



I got to chance to chase a sunset in my old stomping grounds.  I took a break last week and went on adventure and to celebrate my niece who is expecting.  It literally the first baby shower I have been to in YEARS.  It was so fun.

What I Read August

I am linking up with Modern Mrs Darcy's Quick Lit. Check out what everyone else is reading.

Summer had wound down and my reading has slowed to a trickle.


The Correspondent by Virginia Evans

I bought this book to share with Nonna . She thought the book might have a few too many characters. Since all the writing is in letters and emails aka correspondence. It takes a bit to get the storyline. I enjoyed it. I passed onto a friend. It certainly has gotten a lot of buzz.

Inappropriate TALES FROM THE ROAD

We do a lot of driving here in rural New Mexico. Thought I would share a few inappropriate things I noticed last week in our travels.  I saw an apparently homeless man carrying his urine in a plastic garbage bag.  In the middle of nowhere Vaughn New Mexico, we saw a man handcuffed and following a deputy from the gas station.  It wasn't much a prisoner transport but where was the guy going to run to.


We also found Cinderella's abandoned carriage. You have to stop to check it out.

Wordy Wednesday

 


This quote was in Jen Hatmaker's Message from the Middle and it hit home for me. I too am a conflict avoider. Jen Hatmaker had this to say after the quote above - "I propose that silence is not better than necessary confrontation or change. It is worse. Silence is covering something up, and cover ups have never worked."
