Update on Romancechick’s family: The Girl came home from school yesterday…okay, she came home from a bowling match…actually, I drove her home yesterday after the bowling and she told me that she thought she’d failed her biology test and then she checked Edline and found out that her biology teacher gave her zeroes for work …
I’m a little late in getting this post written, but I wanted to be sure to let all my readers know about two very good books I read recently. On Sparrow Hill by Maureen Long is the second book in her series, The Oak Leaves. I will admit that I didn’t read the first one …
