nablopomo 2017 - Day Twenty

It's Monday, so I feel it is my duty once again to tell you

WATCH TRAVELERS!!!


-----------

It was beautiful and sunny today.

And frickin' freezing, Mr Bigglesworth.

I needed some company today while I was doing sewing stuff (the granddogs were here, but they are remarkably uncommunicative unless they want to (1) pee (2) get a cookie out of me) so I put on the TV. I landed on HGTV, specifically some back-to-back episodes of Good Bones. I generally enjoy that show because it is not absolutely exactly like every single other reno show out there in that they buy disaster houses in Indianapolis for crazy cheap (like $4000.00 - taxes, I'm thinking) and fix them up, usually by ripping them down to the studs. But I noticed today that in just about every place they tear down to studs, those studs show extensive fire damage. Ditto the floors, roofs, etc. I thought to myself, "Self," I thought, "I don't think I'd like to live in a house that's got extensive fire damage, remediated or otherwise."

Then I thought it's entirely possible that I actually am. How would I even know? ..

The world is full of mysteries.

Speaking of mysteries, have you ordered your copy of this book yet?



You totally should.

----------
Tomorrow I have to go to IKEA.

My life is one thrill after another!
----------
Baby bulldogs are pretty adorable. Just sayin'

I have not ordered it but I am in the queue for it at our library.

Close enough!

Me, too, actually. I just put a request on it. I'm almost done with The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society (https://books.google.com/books/about/The_Guernsey_Literary_and_Potato_Peel_Pi.html?id=eK0SnBnpkA8C&printsec=frontcover&source=kp_read_button#v=onepage&q&f=false), so I need something new to read soon.

How was that one? I saw it...somewhere. Any good?

I'm enjoying it a lot. At first, I wasn't sure if I would like the format -- it's written as letters back and forth between people. But, as it turns out, I like it fine.
