My guess is #4.

Way too young...prayers and blessings to her family.

Okay, so finished Sarah's Key. Ended up being quite disappointed. I thoroughly enjoyed the first third/half. Two inter-twining stories...one in 1942 France and one in 2002 France. The stories were interesting and wove together well. However, once it was revealed how the stories were linked, the book...

Ha ha ha. I guess I am a bad liar! Yes, I did not start a new job this year. Wish I did...my company went through a merger and it has been an horrendous year. I did run the Chicago marahon (in 85 degree weather). Sign-up for 2011 started Tuesday...husband is pushing for it. Me? I am not so sure I am...

No, #4 is not correct.

I took my mother to Sedona last May as birthday present for her 70th birthday. Neither of us had ever been there before, and we really loved it. Found some hikes that we both enjoyed and played some golf. We even made it to the Grand Canyon for the day.

Okay, I will play. Some 2010 trivia:

1. I ran the Chicago marathon
2. I spent my birthday at a funeral
3. I started a new job
4. I took a vacation with my mother

Just got through reading Atonement. I found the book at many times to be slow and boring...just hard to get through. While the writing was very good, I think (for me) got in the way of the story - too much descriptive language and not enough story at times. About half-way through Sarah's Key. LOVE IT.

Not sure what the count is to date, but expecting 20"+ in the next 30 hours here in Chicago. Yikes!

PS...my comment on The Help should have been (I may be the only one that has NOT read this one!)- though after some recent comments by some of you, I have moved this one down on my list...

Liamsaunt - thanks for the comment on Cutting for Stone...I will keep your comments in mind reading the opening of the book. As I recall, one of the reasons I selected Never Let Me Go was a recommendation on this forum from you :) That book was one of the few books that I found myself thinking about...

Thank you for sharing and I sincerely hope the worst of it is behind you...forever. And thank you for reminding us of to remember what is truly important. In the past 12 months both my husband (just about your age Lysa) and mother have been hospitlized via the ER...giving us all quite a scare (all d...

While I haven’t posted in quite some time (nor have I, unfortunately, been to St. John in recent years…need to fix that), I have been enjoying the off-topic forum, particularly the information regarding whatever has been reading. In appreciation of this, I will share what I have been reading recentl...

I just wonder if his wife yelled "FORE" before hitting him...as in this is FORE cheating on me...

Meg, You are in my prayers. I hope you were able to arrange the flight. My husband has his private pilot's licence and we are local (I grew up in Arlington Hts and now live in Chicago)...if we can help with any transportation, send me a PM. Laura

Terry, Wasn't that match great? Wow. I missed the women's final, but the Serena's semi-final match was outstanding, too. I am a big tennis fan and play regularly (though I am not playing quite as much as Kellyanna...Kellyanna where do you find that much time for 8 leagues!). I am currently rated a 4...
