Rainy Day in Memphis


This one is for Mis Pris! There's not really much to say about today, except that it's been stormy all morning. The dogs had to go pee before I left for work, so they got nice and wet. Today is a good day to be at home in bed. Jane is leaving early today and says she's going home and going back to sleep.

I'm reading a book called Gilead by Marilynne Robinson. It's a book I'm reading for Readers Advisory. I need to hurry up and finish it. My annotation is due on the 16th. It's a book about a father writing a letter to his son. The father is an older man and is dying. He has a young son and is writing the letter to his son so that he can tell him all the things he thinks he would have told him had he been around as the son grows up. The book is well written. The pace is slow, but that lets you get to know the father very well.

I think that's it for today.
