This is all so new, but I'll give it a try
Emily has just help me set up a blog. I have loved reading others blogs but I don't know that I have too much to add. I remember being a young mother with a house full of children and their friends and lots going on but I'm living a very quiet life, Abbey and DeVon's at work, Aaron is getting ready to hang out with his friends and I seem to be faced with the challenge of either doing house work or reading. Reading seems to be winning the struggle there. It's crazy not so long ago I would have loved to have the house to myself and peace and quiet. But now I seem a little lost. I know there are always the "good doers" that's right the ones that are always serving others but I don't really want to take thier opportunities away. So I think it's only right that I continue to be a slug and ponder upon the next book to read. I do have to say that it's very fun to go to the website for the Salt Lake County Library and down load book on your MP3 player. DeVon is the one that actually loads them on my MP3 player. I haven't figured out how to do it completely. But I download them on the computer and leave the rest for DeVon to do. But it's great to listen to these books while I'm out doing my daily exercise. The crazy thing is that the books are checked out to you for 21 days and then they just desolve. Modern technology it's amazing. The author that I'm enjoying now is Alexander McAll Smith. I can't remember the title of the books but they'er based in Scotland. The language is good and the stories are just everyday events in these character's lives. It's good to find books that are not offensive.

Hooray Mom! I knew you could figure it out. I am really glad that you started a blog because I think you have great insight on life and I love talking to you. ♥ ya!
Hey Jen, it's Brittany. I hope you dont mind me dropping in on your blog.
I had no clue that you could "check out" books for your mp3 player on-line. That is awesome and I'll have to check that out. Thanks for the new info.
