Life:  I know I have mentioned this on several occasions, but as I am facing a new chapter in my life it seems an appropriate reminder to all, life goes by far too quickly, savour every moment.  I miss my son, who is away at University and count the days until he is home for break.  I miss the sound of the twins during the day as they have returned to school and I miss our 4 day weekends now that DH was able to make possible over the last half of the summer.  Poof, everything changes in the blink of an eye.

Family Update:  My oldest son is adjusting to University life and the demands of a heavy class load and a part time job.  Twin A is busy with school and the hours spent after school working on the set for the autumn musical.  Twin B  has his first week of work behind him and so far enjoys being employed part-time at the library…now he needs to figure out how to study around his work hours.  DH is once again busy with the new quarter beginning at University and I am once again finding the house too quiet (however the cat loves it).  Currently I am attempting to balance reading time and knitting time.  I have several sweaters to knit up before Christmas and shelves of books to read.  I could listen to books on tape while knitting, but I do so want to re-watch all of British mystery series while knitting.  I am just finishing up Foyle’s War. 

Saturday Night: Movie night was quite eclectic as we watched a series of foreign films, played games and just enjoyed being together.

Read and Reviewed:  This past week I read and reviewed 8 books, spotlighted 1 book and had a guest author blog post (I am looking forward to reading her book).  If you have time, please take a look at my reviews, I have a diverse selection of books.

Today I will be reading: Snapped by Laura Griffin

Life: Time is going by too quickly, but thankfully the heatwave has left.  I have been trying to balance family time, reading, knitting, and getting everyone ready for school to begin without spending too much time worrying about my oldest heading off to University.

Family Update:  School begins all too soon for my boys. On the upside, I will be able to read more per week, on the downside, I will really miss my oldest not being home.  We are trying to enjoy the last few weeks we have together before school begins.  As I mentioned above I have been knitting, it was time to start my Christmas knitting, so far so good.

Saturday Night: We spent the evening watching MST3K (oldest son’s pick), laughing, and enjoying our time together.

Read and Reviewed: This past week I read and reviewed 7 books. If you have time, please take a look at the reviews, one never knows when they will find a treasure.

Today I will be reading: The Glitter Scene by Monika Fagerholm
