So...I did not read anything I planned to read over the weekend! But...that is what I expect from myself...sigh! But I have a really good reason. A library ebook popped into Overdrive and totally distracted me! I love this author and I loved this book. British mystery writers are my downfall...and Peter Robinson's writing is addictive. I think this might be his 24th Inspector Banks book. They are seriously good.

I have to go and join Den in taking down the rest of Christmas...we were delayed due to his awful cold. It's still not completely gone but it's better...finally. And then last Monday this little angel sounded horrible. Her meow was hoarse...heeheehee...she was coughing...we were freaking out! Everyone forgot about her seasonal asthma when it gets cold and damp. So...after a day at the vet, the wrong meds, a shot, X-rays, and a million dollars later...she is back on her puffer and no longer hoarse. You haven't lived until you have tried to give a Tonk liquid antibiotics and an inhaler!
Wishing you an awesome day!
Hugs,
Patty
