(no subject)
The day dawned dark with rain lashing down. Pretty much summed up my mood today as i had to take gramie_dee to the airport for his journey home. It's always a sucky day when we have to part. Next visit is in the spring. Thank God for the internet and the ease of communication. We couldn't do this without it.
Am going to see a touring production of Spamalot tonight. If he'd been flying Air Canada as usual, he'd have been here to go with me but because he's flying through Toronto to another airline, he had to leave in the afternoon for the evening connection. I'm still going with some friends so i guess that will take my mind off things for a few hours. One couple that's going to be there tonight just came back from Vegas this afternoon and broke the news.... after 17 years together, they got married while out there on a whim!
and for keeping up the 2010 book list...
27 The Deep Blue Sea for Beginners - Luanne Rice
This is about a woman who had left her husband and children and fled to Capri. Her 16 year old daughter has decided to go to her mother's and find out why she left and ask her to come back. Their father/her husband had died a few years previously and her little sister has been drifting and having sleep problems. It just seems like the sisters really need their mother. But the reason the mother left was because she was having a nervous breakdown and there were things that happened that she couldn't guarantee wouldn't happen again. It seemed better all around that she go. The daughter and mother rediscover each other and we get to know some of the other neighbours as well. There's a troubled young lad in the mix of course and there's a boyfriend left behind. It was light reading and something i'd picked up for the flight to Toronto and the wait in the airport and i finished it in the one day.
I'm sure there's another book in there that i read but i can't for the life of me remember what it was.
