Friday... or rather Pre-Saturday... :-)

After a very active week... I find myself rather at loss with this "free" time on my  hands. Let me correct myself... I am not used to having this much time on my hands. My morning has consisted on catching up heavily on assignments and reading, for which I am thankful for this time! But what really is keeping me on this study roll is the fact that it is Friday and the rest of the family will be coming in from work tonight, we'll have dinner (for me this is the first time this week that I eat dinner at home... rephrase... eat dinner... period). My goal is to have as much school-work done so I can actually snuggle on the coach with a warm fuzzy blanket and watch a really good movie... make a commentaries while watching... interrupt and talk to my family while they tell me to hush and make some pleasant memories before I begin all over again with school tomorrow. 

I read the front cover of the latest Reader Digest this morning... I found this funny... it's cover story was "The Secrets to a Healthy Heart", and a sub-story of Paula Dean and her success to her tremendous cooking career! (For those who don't know Paula... she is the Queen of Southern Cooking, where she uses butter and fat to galore), but what got my attention was a statement, 10 Things You're Thankful For, well one of my first was I actually have school work to do... I don't know what I would do if we did not have SPCC. Every town should have something offered to them. 

Anyhow, enough of this rambling... I have been enjoying pondering on the stories that I've read, especially A Good Man is Hard to Find, by Flannary O'Connor. What was her point in the title...it still befaddles me! As I open the doorway into the story, I have a mental picture of Mr Darcy waiting to greet me at the door, but if a chicken has lips... everybody in the story gets killed... and Mr Darcy is no where to be found! Just the Misfit. Terribly disappointing.
