I think my favorite book in this regard is 'Gone With the Wind'. Actually, these insights probably aren't little nuggets hidden by the author so much as my looking at it differently as I get older.<BR/><BR/>A little laughing is good, but we really overdid it with 'Blood Sausage' the other night. Your birthday girl thought is was funny when I told her that grandpa almost fell out of bed laughing. Almost had a stroke is more accurate, but why worry her?Sailorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12921177435940480006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1524749296488158627.post-51873327568916151772008-03-20T13:04:00.000-06:002008-03-20T13:04:00.000-06:00Sailor has his favorites, usually our bed-time sto...Sailor has his favorites, usually our bed-time stories come from something humorous. But the night before last it was a bit much. He read a Pat McManis story from the book <I>Real Ponies Don't Go Oink!</I>.<BR/>The story was "Blood Sausage". It had Sailor laughing so hard, all his "sleep meds" were canceled out and he was wide awake. Last night's story was probably equally as funny, "Zumbo and the Misty Mountain Ghosts" but I think we were both tired enough that it was perfect for falling asleep to. . .<BR/>glad you are getting better.<BR/>~aAnnieofbluegableshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17106750987640776507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1524749296488158627.post-17400726808706631482008-03-20T12:56:00.000-06:002008-03-20T12:56:00.000-06:00I was also sick a few weeks ago and did the same t...I was also sick a few weeks ago and did the same thing. I ended up reading the Georgia confessions books for the umpteenth time because I really needed a laugh. So those are definitely worth buying. But you're right about most books.

So I always try to check out "extra" books from the library when I go! Tight now I'm reading "The Omnivore's Dilemma" by Michael Pollan. It's truly fascinating non-fiction.princess jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00996199384833340826noreply@blogger.com
