About meMiddle-aged single mom of 3 grown sons (2 gone and one, alas, not). I have been reading and collecting books my whole life. I work in a hospital information systems department, doing support and training for doctors & office staff. I also teach future medical assistants and coders/billers part time at a local college.

About my libraryLarge and eclectic. I can't be pinned down by "What kind of books do you read?" I love to read, and I love to own books, but I am a little bit of a literary snob. You won't find me reading too many "popular romance" or anything by an author who puts out more than one book per year. No time to keep up with it!

Yikes...spinal issue causing problems in your leg? This sounds so very painful. You are such a kind, wonderful person that I really hate to know you are in pain.

I'm hoping you won't have to have surgery. But, if it brings relief, then I hope that might be an option. Constant, nagging pain wears you down.

I'm thinking of you!

Thank you every so much for your kind words! I appreciate you!

The big secret? A different father? Babies exchanged at birth? You can tell me; I'm not going to read the book.
I will double the energy...

Hi Terri

I'm simply stopping by to inquire about you. How are you feeling today?
Hi Terri

There is no need to return the book.

I hope you are well. How are you feeling this week?

Happy Fall,

Linda
Terri

I'm sending a message to say I hope you are feeling better this evening. I hope the injections work. Your condition sounds very painful.

Linda
Hi Terri

Many thanks for your birthday wishes. I appreciate your outreach.

It is a joy to know you.

Linda
Gift certificate emailed to you, and I contacted the coffee company about the problems you are having redeeming the certificate.

Thank you for participating in my thread. I wish I had a cousin to give me books for free. :)
How was your birthday?
Anytime! We crazy book people have got to stick together!

I'm writing for many reasons:

1) I'm wondering how you are processing the loss of your beloved dog.
2) I'm wondering about your mother and hope she continues to progress in her recovery
3) I noted on Kath's thread that you had hoped to win the ARC of The Day The Falls Stood Still. I did receive this as an ARC and started to read it last night. I will gladly send it to you when I am finished.

Simply provide your home address on my LT page and I'll send it off to you next week.

Hugs
Linda

Hi Terri
I'm simply stopping by to say I'm thinking of you and your mother. How is she post surgery?
Perfect!
Terri
I just read the post regarding your mother's impending heart surgery. Oh my heavens, but you are dealing with a lot of things in the last few weeks. Prayers are sent!

Hugs
Linda
Terri

I'm so sorry that you had to put your older dog to sleep. This is such a difficult thing to do. My heart goes out to you.

Linda
Just wanted to stop by with a saturday morning hello!

Not sure if it is me missing you or you not around as much.. but
either way, hope you are having a serene and happy day.
Hi Terri
I'm simply stopping by to say how much I enjoy reading your comments throughout the 75 challenge group. I also enjoy your reviews and learning about the books you read.

Happy Sunday Morning.

Linda
Thanks, Terri. I guess I missed it (Ulysses review) on the list, gone in a flash, but that's not my main purpose in life. I write mainly to collect my thoughts, and in order to remember them past a day or so. I do appreciate people reading and commenting.

Wilf
Enjoyed your review of Ulysses. I read it the same way as you, accompanied by CD, and, like Matilda, would "sit back and allow the words to wash around you, like music."

Love Old St. Charles, but rarely get there, brother in O'Fallon draws me there instead.
Your son sounds like a very neat young man. I'm the mother of two daughters, age 36 and 26. I have always wondered what it would be like to have a son. Now, I am the grandmother of twin boys and I love it!
Sorry I'm getting back so late. I haven't checked this site in a while. I did just got a new book and put it in and saw your message. I am trying to get back into the second book. I had finished what I thought was the final draft back in November and sent it to about 20 agents, but it was declined by all. So I stayed away from it until March, and I came back to it pretty fresh, and I saw much more clearly how I could improve it. I wrote myself notes and have made up a very basic outline for the final final draft, which should be much crisper and leave out a bunch of superfluous and nonessential material. So it's just a matter of writing it. I intend to do that as soon as I get a chance, but this geneology project has taken hold of me and I am trying to get through that. My goal was to go back to my Great-Great-Great-Grandparents, and I currently have all but 4. So I am going to give myself a little more time for ancestor-digging, then I'll try to organize all the information I do have, and then it's back to writing. Things are actually going very well at my job now, so I'm not in such an urgent mode as I was. I used to think that I would have to write a bestseller or I would wind up homeless, but I am making strides at work. Hopefully I will be able to move out next year, and I can take my writing at my own pace, and I think that will make it better. So that's all. I had a lot of fun at Craig's party yesterday. Talk to you later.
Funny you should send this comment... I ate gumbo last night. A lot of people do indeed add okra, but my family never cared for it. But you must sprinkle some file (pronounced fee-lay) on your gumbo before eating it... this is dried and crushed-to-a-powder sassafras leaves; makes the gumbo a bit thicker and gives it that extra taste. I stock up on it every year when I visit home. And gumbo does not taste as good in Malaysia as it does down on the bayou. Environment affects taste.
Hi, Terri. You were definitely right about this sight. It's rather addicting. Well, so long.
