Ok, I'm starting "Eclipse" tonight, the second to last in the series by Stephenie Meyer. I went through the first book, "Twilight" in one day and "New Moon" in the next two following days. Let me be very honest, I didn't much care for "Twilight". In order to relate I had to make Edward look in my mind more like an older man. Big mistake because then I couldn't get over the idea that Edward was 80+ years old so I could only see him as some kind of pedifile! - hitting on a 17 year old girl - YUCK! I just couldn't get a younger man's face to stick to my mind's picture. And I thought the author's attempt at dialog was a bit awkard so, all in all I thought maybe I'd skip the other books and say I tried, after all, I couldn't get through more than two Harry Potter books! Well thank goodness I read the second book in the series, "New Moon"! SOOOOO MUCH BETTER, (I love Jacob - I've always had a thing with Native American men! Rodney Grant, I'm still waiting for you!) - I am now hooked and can't wait to get "Eclipse" finished - hopefully in a few days also! Thanks to my two nieces for introducing me to these books! If you haven't seen the trailor for the new "Twilight" movie coming out Dec 12, check http://www.2sure.blogspot.com/ and see the copy of it there! I am going to go to the show with my nieces whether they want me or not! So save a seat!







Today's People's Market was delightful. I love it so much when people come up and say, "this is the lady I was telling you about!" and then they stand there and sell the jewelry for me! What an honor! And thank you, Leeza, for all the paper you brought to me! Wow, I was in 7th heaven. She cleaned out a bit I guess and brought old maps, Japanese paper, cool wrapping paper, and on and on! Even some pages from a book all in Russian! I don't think chocolate would have made me any happier and excited. I'm not sure Rodney Grant would have been as exciting - I am getting old! (See "Dances with Wolves" if you have forgotten Mr. Grant). Anyway I'll have some neat stuff to show next week.


School does start again tomorrow for us teachers so I won't be nearly as productive but I don't think I will run out of material for SEVERAL weeks!


Very nice to meet and talk to Dave from Texas who met and married Rosalyn from Minnesota. Both had to travel far to met here in Utah! What a cute, cute couple. I'd glad people like that have made Utah their home!




Good luck to all bow hunters. If you see a large, VERY LARGE WOLF-like creature out there, DO NOT SHOOT IT! Rick, do you hear me?!!

You are SO going with us to the Twilight movie! Did you read all of them including the last one, Breaking Dawn? By the way, I found out they've moved the movie up to NOVEMBER instead of December...!
