I didn't make a ham this Easter so no soup for me. <br /><br />I am reading Letters to the Church for my life group. It's fascinating if you like that kind of thing. I just finished The Wife Between Us which was a fun read. A real page-turner. I have to get the review up.

I'm shocked (although I probably shouldn't be) that Trump had a long phone call with Putin yesterday and never discussed the meddling/interference. Thank you for recommending The Past. It was a wonderful novel and I'm looking forward to reading more of Hadley's work. It started off slowly, but I enjoyed the setting and getting to know the characters. <br />The weather here is beginning the shift toward summer - definitely warmer, more humid, and pop-up late day showers.

And how nice to have it so quiet there now. I don't think I told you this, but our CPA and his wife (who works every bit as hard in the business as he does) had an absolutely wonderful time on Sanibel for several weeks last November. It sounds like they can't wait to go back again this fall.<br />As I read your post, I think that you are so right to want to read the report for yourself. I must as well. And it is not political at all to worry about how the Russians are interfering in our elections. So if you were to share opinions or facts or remarks about that--that is not political. It's FACT. And I truly fear that the more that people classify this serious fact as political, the more we have to fear from Russian interference. It should disturb everybody. Because who knows when Putin or another Russian leader is going to throw weight behind Democratic candidates, that is, when they think it is in their best interests to do so?<br /><br />Judithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06435116453270981662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-11152548487655144292019-04-29T16:38:56.780-04:002019-04-29T16:38:56.780-04:00Deb - I'm not sure how I've ended up with ...Deb - I'm not sure how I've ended up with two serious, disturbing reads at the same time... think I'd be better of with the six classics like you're juggling! ;-)JoAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13691864361197071517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7080965436653289398.post-1627928854095643452019-04-29T16:37:18.755-04:002019-04-29T16:37:18.755-04:00Shelleyrae - I live here and find the country’s to...Shelleyrae - I live here and find the country’s tolerance for Trump and his lies inexplicable!

I hope you will update us frequently on it.<br /><br />Our snowbirds tend to linger here along the Gulf Coast of Texas as the migrating birds are passing through this month and next month. Everyone you see seems to be looking up at the sky through binoculars. <br /><br />I'm intrigued with Dopesick, too, but I'm not sure I have the courage to read such a depressing book right now.
