Well, I am happy to report that the weather is indeed lovely. This time of year, it's unreliable and can be cold and wet or just nothing special and it was so until a couple of days ago. But it's hot and sunny now and likely to stay this way....

Interest in HF: started in childhood with the classics, which, IMHO are HF even if they were contemporary when written.
Favourite HF book: Prince of Foxes, by Samuel Shellabarger
Preferred HF: Currently prefer 1600 and earlier, but I'll read anything that keeps me turning the page.

Today's best thing was Easter. It is one of the two times a year when everybody in the family makes an effort to sit together in the same Sunday service. Then we went over to our house and played a hilarious game called "Apples to Apples" which I highly recommend if you want a group game that everyone can enjoy.

And we watched 17-month-old Hailey do her first Easter egg hunt--which consisted of her laughing hysterically as she found colored eggs in the most obvious places and gave them to the nearest adult.

Dinner cooked by the SIL, including a vegetarian entree for the DIL. A wonderful time. We are so blessed.

I was driving home today (from the bookstore, yay!) and found that one of my neighbors had a perfectly good chair out by their trash marked "Free." Being an unabashed scavenger (it's one of the many ways I embarrass my teenage daughter), I got my son to help me load it into the car. If hubby certifies that it's bedbug free, it'll be in the living room tomorrow!

Now if the next moving neighbor just leaves their couch behind . . .

well after almost a month and half out of work I got three offers today, as long as my background checks out and so forth then I start at the one I picked next week *crossing fingers* and it's more than I was making before so it sounds like things are looking up!
