Good morning Carol. The litmus test for me on Saturday morning reviewing your post is did I comment on Lou's post when first written. This morning I did not. And so, as it goes, I got to comment on all the others you chose this week. Thanks! Enjoy your day.

Hi Carol:

It's hard to believe that another great week of reading has passed. And as always I have a few I missed but hope to get to over the weekend even with family visiting. But maybe not.

Enjoy your weekend!
