Heading to SPRING!

Even though outside still looks and feels like winter I'm thinking warm.
Last night at Book Club we talked about Austenland. Even though I'm not a Jane Austen fanatic or a big Colin Firth fan, I really like Shannon Hale as an author. (Think Goose Girl, Princess Academy, Enna Burning) This was a real departure for her but she did it well. It was at my house and because it was the start of spring break for Murray District ( I know, Murray days off never coincide with the rest of the world!) we didn't have all the regulars but we had a great time and stayed til after 10pm. Next month it's Surprised by Joy by CS Lewis, one of my favorite authors of all time! What an insightful man.
We are also fasting and praying for our friend Karen G. All our prayers go out to her and her family at this time and hope she responds well to the chemo for her cancer.
I was so excited to sleep in today and for the next 9 days!! I only have 6 more weeks of tutoring and then off to Seattle to see my new grandson born! Course, I'll be out of work for the summer, but I'll have time to play! Only 1 more month of Early Morning Espanol too. I'm going to miss my darling 6th graders who'll move on to the Jr. High next year but at least I'll get to see them in the halls!
I'm reffing the semi-finals of Murray Region church basketball today and our Stake is playing! Should be fun.
