I went to my first book club on Sunday! Yep, I jumped right into that goal!
Our book was Mennonite In A Little Black Dress by Rhoda Janzen.
First off, the book was pretty good. I don't think I've ever LOL'd so much while reading a book. It was a little hard to follow her direction sometimes, but overall a worth while read.
The ladies were super nice and nobody sounded like a literary expert, so that was nice. :) Also, they discuss the book for a bit and then drink wine and talk about life in general. So overall, I'm pretty happy! Also found out quite a few of the ladies live in my neighborhood... Additional plus!
I did do the 5K on New Years Day. I really wanted to start the year off with that. I didn't run any though. My asthma & allergies are really bad right now, and I didn't want to push myself anymore. South Texas is blessed with some sort of Cedar Pollen that anybody that has even and inkling of allergies is affected by. It's pretty awful, but allows everyone to bond a little over scratchy throats, water eyes and runny noses... so friggin' awesome. Oh, and the sinus headaches... those are DE-freakin'-lightful.

Way to go grabbing the new year by the horns and going with it!
Well the LV library now has "Mennonite in a little black dress" on hold for me. So yeah for me! I have 2 other books on hold, but since one is a John Grisham, it will be next year before I get to read it. :) That's okay something to look forward to.
No fun allergies. :( Shawn
