Deviation in Week-End Plans

I finished by second book of the week-end. I stayed up late reading Thursdays at Eight by Debbie MaComber. It is a cute story. Four women meet in a journal writing class. They continue to meet once a week for coffee. When do they meet? Thursday mornings at 8:00. They are different ages, with different life styles, different levels of careers. It is a story of where each of their lives take them in a year. They continue to keep journals. Stay in contact. Support each other through hard times. It is a good story. Not a unique story. I am going to rate it a 2. That is not saying it is bad. It is just hard for me to compare books with more substance to books that are just fun light reading. I tend to be harder on books after I rate something a 5. I need to learn to rate each book as a stand alone. If you would enjoy a light read, and like Debbie MaComber, you will like this story.
I ended up having to leave my house today. Ruined by week-end plans. I had to go clear over to the other side of town to drop something off for my sister in law. She left some clothes in the hotel when she stayed in town last week-end. Last week-end I had to go pick the clothes up. This week-end I had to drop the clothes off at her friend's house. It can really be a burden being the youngest in the family. I am expected to take care of the old people in my family.
I stopped and got gas while I was out. Now I do not have to do that tomorrow. I have a roast in the crock-pot. Making a nice dinner for a cool fall night. Grandkids are coming to the spend the night. We will cuddle in for a relaxing evening. Now I have a few minutes before they get here. Think I will start my next book.
Hope you are having a relaxing week-end too!
