I haven't written for a while, been busy but not sure on what.  I just read all your post, makes me tired.   For a lazy life you are too busy!  I'm going to write about what has been going on but not in any particular order.  I'd have to look at my calendar to figure when things happened and I'm just being too lazy to do that.

Oh, you didn't tell me about babysitting for your neighbor.  How old is the baby now?  V,  my sister's adopted granddaughter, the one that is married to the fellow in the army and she lives in Co.  had their baby.  It is a girl, I can't remember the name.  Yesterday when I went to the store to get some organizing containers so that I could organize my craft room, I picked up several really cute baby outfits and I mailed them off this morning.  Baby clothes are so cute!  I ended up getting some of those hard plastic shelf units and got the craft room reorganized finally. Maybe it will be easier to start a new project.

I don't think I'm going to make any more needle felted items.  I have plenty to use as examples if we ever do the workshop for JK.  I need to start giving away all the things, I have way too many for the minimalism life I want.

My car!  Actually tires, again!  On Sunday afternoon I was suppose to be going to see a play with MK and her family in the city--Live, Love, and What I Wore by Nora and Delia Ephran.  I think it would have been good but----on the way there, only about 20 minutes from the place, I hit a pot hole and my tire blew out!  So very annoying!  I'm glad I bought Triple A, they were out in about 45 minutes, very please with them.  but, I missed the play.  I could have caught the group for dinner but I was frustrated after getting the donate tire on and the car drove kind of funny so I just came home, parked the car and had a quiet Book/TV rest of the day.  Monday I took the car over to this car place that my friend S told me was good (I decided not to go back to the car dealer for stuff since that last scheduled visit cost a small fortune)---anyway the fellow there said they won't have time till Wednesday to put the tire on and check underneath the car for damage.  Oh, the tire with the blow out was done, done, done--so, I had them put that tire I had left from the last tire mishap on, luckily the rim was not bent.  Tomorrow I will go back to have this project completed.

Tomorrow I have to get car in, go to the senior group at church, cook and deliver sloppy joes for 25 to Pads.  In between I have lots of reading to catch up on.

I've been listening to those Reacher books when I drive around and supposedly when I go walking but I haven't walked in a few days--the weather here is kind a yuk and I haven't been feeling well.  More on that later.

The book club at the book store that meets once a month isn't turning out to be what I thought it would be.  Interesting but not what I thought.  I was expecting it to be about bringing people with different political views together but it seems to be focusing on racial issues instead, which I suppose is sort a the same issue but not quite the same.  And there doesn't really seem to be much diversity in the audience.  I guess I was hoping to meet a reasonable rational Trump supporter and that person would make me see not all Trump supporters were bad people.  The book was Ghost in the Schoolyard: Racism and school closings on Chicago's south side by Eve Ewing.  I was wondering if I was the only one at the discussion who had some of the questions I wondered about yet I didn't want to ask the questions to the group.  While the book gave statistics about the closing in black schools I think it would have made a stronger point if it had also included the statistics for the white schools that closed.  I'm aware of the racism yet I think it is beyond the schools to solve the problems, the poverty in our social economic system needs to be dealt with, education, institutions are just part of the problem, and then I think about the black people I know that don't want to let white people into their world---I wonder well racism get any better in my life time.

Tomorrow I need to write about the COD group, the LWV book club, the condo get together.  Now, I want to go fix something to eat and watch TV.  Oh, and I still don't feel well!
