I made our local news last night-a Congressman here in Missouri brought up a proposition to change our slogan from "the Show Me State" to the "Great Rivers State." Since I work in tourism, they called me, and naturally I had 20 minutes warning which wasn't enough time to fix the fact that it was a ponytail-no-appointments-not-leaving-the-office kind of day. Oh well!
Anyway I come in about halfway through. I love the guy who kept getting "the Show Me State" confused with that movie where they keep yelling "show me the money."
I just finished reading 11/22/63 by Stephen King.
It was long. Overly so, in my opinion. I still really enjoyed it, and the ending was much better and more satisfying than I thought it would be. It seems much more sentimental than his typical book.
The weather here has been gorgeous lately--we've had such a long spring--and my lucky dogs have been getting walked at least once a day, and twice yesterday. How's the weather in your neck of the woods?
Weather seems . . . hopeful? Like any day, the sun is gonna come out and warm up the world and I can get to planting. I'm keepin gmy fingers crossed.

ReplyDeletecute outfit! I really liked that book and had never read anything by him before (not a fan of scary stories). I was surprised at how quickly it absorbed me.
