December, and the "Joy of Reading"

I've been remiss in posting for a few days.  It's mainly because I've been reading like crazy.  I still need to get my "Books" Page up and running; for now, I'll just let you know that I'm reading a series by Jeffrey Archer, called The Clifton Chronicles.  I read the first book, "Only Time Will Tell," in a day and a half - just couldn't put it down.  Then, yesterday I read the second, "The Sins of the Father," completely in one day.  Both of the above I read on Kindle - so convenient.  But, the reason I bought them is because I'd bought a paperback that, after I'd purchased it, I found it's the third of installment.  Call me anal-retentive or whatever, but I always like to start at the beginning.  So, I loaded the first two books to my iCloud and they're now history.  I love iCloud because I can read on any of my electronic devices - computer, iPad or iPhone.

My conundrum for today is:  shall I start reading the third, "Best Kept Secret," this morning?  Or, should I wait until later.  If I begin now, I know I'll not get much else done today!

Let's see, what am I 'getting done' in Livingston?  The other day I had an oil and filter change in Petunia Smart car.  I can't express how great it is to be past all the problems with that little car.  She's running like a top (or a petunia!) and I love having wheels to get around without packing up the rig.  Floribunda Flair is going in to the RV service center tomorrow for a tune up, too; so she'll be ready for the next jaunt further into the southeastern US.  I'm paid up here until Sunday and may even decide to stay a little longer; partly because I don't have any set plan for our next destination.  I'm planning to get onto a path either on, or around, I-10, heading east.  If anybody has suggestions for stops in Louisiana around I-10, I'd love some input.

Confusing Weather - Livingston, Texas

When we arrived here a week and a half ago, it was unusually COLD, like freezing; now it's unusually WARM.  Yesterday it got up to about 80 and last night down to only about 72; so I have available my ski jacket and UGHs and my shorts and sandals!

Maybe I'll take a few photos to add to the blog in the next day or so.  Happy Thursday Everybody!
