The Sounds of the Night

Leave a Comment/ 772/ 0

YAWN!!!!!!!!! I didn’t do what I said I was going to do last week. And I remembered it at midnight when the fire alarms went off again. I had vowed to always have a set of clothes to throw on right next to the bed…..so once again I was scrambling to find something to pull on. Once we got outside they turned the alarm off and said to go back to our rooms. Then a few minutes later the fire truck comes screaming in. Then about 10 minutes later the sweet little voice comes on the PA system apologizing for any inconvenience for the disturbance of the false alarm. I won’t miss this part of the experience.

And speaking of disturbance…I keep forgetting to write about this funny phrase or at least I think it is funny! When we were buying our mattress and trying them all out the phrase she kept using was that certain types of mattresses have little or no partner disturbance…..yeah, right!!! I guess what she really meant is that the mattress does not move when your partner moves but everytime she said it it made me laugh.

Chris is headed to the Herbert region today and we are looking forward to the weekend. More shopping, haircut for Chris, looking at the house and taking measurements and finalizing hopefully the rental, maybe making it to church on Sunday, maybe walking to the Strand tonight and taking in the market they have there on Friday nights, etc. Life is good!!! More exciting news later!!!

All the Light We Cannot See

An Abundance of Katherines

Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
