Our first book club

Well this Friday, August 15, 2008. We, meaning anyone in the Rocky Mount, Wilson, Greenville and the towns in the surrounding area will be meeting in Rocky Mount at the BAM for our first book club. As of now we don't have a name for the club, but Fatin has a bunch of goodie bags for those who attend. It should be fun. I can't wait. It'll be a rare chance for me to do something without my kids or hubby.

If anyone would like to attend you are welcome to.

Now I need to get back to my writing.

hugs to you all,
WendyK

RWA Chapter adventures....

Well on Saturday I went to Raleigh to an RWA chapter meeting. Well it was an adventure. First I'll say the meeting was great and very informative.

But my adventure began before I even got there. I borrowed my mom's TomTom, while she watched my kids. Well TomTom took me through 2 subdivisons and then back out on the road I was on to start with. So I got to go siteseeing and while the homes were pretty it was a waste of gas and time. I'm glad I left early or I'd have arrived late. LOL

Then on the way home TomTom took me on a scenic route again. I think it just liked the houses. Add in that it'd say "turn right here" as you were passing the turn. Or it'd wait until the last minute to say turn left, meanwhile I'm in the right lane on a 4land highway. Not fun.LOL

But it was interesting. And once I got TomTom figured out and changed a few settings it worked good. I think I'll stick with Garmin in the long run though.

The RWA meeting was really nice though and the members are very friendly and nice. I plan to attend again next month and hopefully every month from here on out.

hope everyone has had a great week and weekend.

As for reading, well I got ACHERON on Tuesday and finished it on Wednesday! Never read such an outstanding story before. I loved, loved, loved it!!!

I will post a review later on.

hugs to all,

Tax-Free Weekend

Well this is our tax-free weekend and I plan to go shopping. I just have to admit, I'm alone, the hubby is racing the kids are with my parents and I'm at home alone, for a change. This is sooo odd. And I hate to get up and go out and be in the midst of crowds taking advantage of the tax-free weekend. But then again, I know I need to go out and get the kids some stuff.

Awww. a free day.

What do you do when you have a free day? What do you do when you are alone and have no real plans for doing anything?
