Things I like to see on my computer: a new post from you.
Things that I like about coming home: having reliable internet service and hearing everyone speak American.
Things that I miss about Europe: hearing many languages all around me and planning my daily long walks.
This is fun! Do another one tomorrow! :)
252662Oooh! I love the lists! I read 100 Years of Solitude this summer, thankful for the family tree at the beginning which I used over and over and over! Also really like the Miracle of Mindfulness. Please let me know what you think of the book on the immune system.

Among my favorite books: 100 Years of Solitude
Books I'm reading with Santiago: All the sequels to Gary Paulsen's The Hatchet.
I'm in love with Henry. Been that way for a while.
So very good to get a post from you!
Phyllis, Have you read Wild Trek before? We just finished Hatchet with William. Skipped over the part about him cutting his wrists and some of the family drama. He is only 6 after all. But Wild Trek... such a great fictional survival story for kids!
I love your catching up post as I am catching up on reading my favorite bloggers. Our boys loved all of the Paulsen books.
