Grateful on Friday

Today I am grateful for library book sales, intense workouts, that it's maxi dress season, allergy medicine, super comfy jeans, um, I mean denim trousers, being a planner, How to Get Away with Murder, new friends, Aldi (it's a very close second to my favorite market, Publix), putting clean laundry away right away, feeling at home, and looking on the bright side.

Did You Ever Have A Family?

I got Did You Ever Have A Family? by Bill Clegg from the library and once I started reading it, I stayed up way too late and finished it in just a few days.  It's a heartbreaking story with beautiful writing. I would never have picked it up but it was a book club choice and I'm hosting this month so I really had to read it. It starts with a house fire where a woman loses her daughter, her daughter's fiance, her boyfriend, and her ex-husband in a rush of flames.
