Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman My rating: 5 of 5 stars Cathleen McCarron narrated this very different kind of book. She was able to act each character with ease. I had no problem knowing who was who. Revelation of Eleanor’s past seeps through the story gradually. I like the way the reader learns of her past as she sees memories clearly. Though some parts feel a little unbelievable, the plot keeps the reader from dwelling on them. Meanwhile, the characters who populate this book keep one invested in their futures.Maybe later I will give this another read, as I miss the characters and I am many books beyond this one.This was Libby’s suggestion when I ran out of things to read at 3 AM. Libby is such a blessing! View all my reviews


Catching Up


It was a fun book.
Another good one.
Thrilling! Good! Love the narrator!
Very interesting.
Thrilling!
Probably one of the best male narrators I’ve heard. Quite the story.
A better picture of the books.
Read in Kindle with Text to Speech. Not as great a story and it needs the sassy narrator

Sorry it’s taking so long to get back to normal.

One-Liner Wednesday


Thanks, Linda

What? Wednesday? Whew!


Finished my slipper socks!
A little snow to fight off summer fires.

A few days ago I learned one of my aunts passed. So many emotions, so many things to say. Still finding it hard to put it in my journal or blog.

Sorry I missed you all the last few days.


Still need about 4 rows of ribbing to finish.
Still need to cast-off for heel hole, then cast-on leg for yoga socks.
This is what took all my time. Milo (the dog, not the cats!😉) made yarn vomit clouds with one skein. I had caked it but after knitting a few inches on my toe-up, two-at-a-time, Fleegle Heel socks for my daughter, and finding they weren’t matching up at all, I frogged the pair, recaked both skeins. Then recaked again one of the cakes (turning it inside out. And hopefully matching up the skeins.

It worked! By the way, the little balls on either side of the mouse was how much I had to waste until they matched.

This is how self-striping yarn skeins should work up. These are my son’s.
Haven’t touched these.
Not these.
A couple songs I’m playing with.
Three more fun songs.
And more fun.
My new music journal. Bigger and better than the last.
It was supposed to be for finances but the columns work for my music practice needs.
Dragon finished!
Now 1/3 into this spooky fun.

I do my Duo while on my stationary bike during the afternoon news.

Well, there’s the hobby progress. Now if I could figure out how to do more on the weekends.

Um, Hi


I don’t have any idea what to write. And my mind is so unable to settle so rather than take it down, I’ll go back to the Zen coloring app .

Not quite finished but I’m loving it.

Hopefully, I’ll have more to say tomorrow.

One-Liner Wednesday


My memory foam mattress is longing for Alzheimer’s.

Goodnight!

FOWC & RDP


I need to stop procrastinating and get a few things done before going to bed. It’s 11:48 PM. I am, normally, a night owl, so being up late is not out of the norm for me. Today, though, I could win the gold for procrastination. Not just for getting to the blogging, or the language […]

Review (of sorts)


I have been devouring Darynda Jones books. I think there are very few I haven’t read (listened to).

If you like weirdly dark but funny to the point of nearly waking my husband, you might enjoy her books.

I’ll try to get back and tell more. But check her books out.
