I have some wonderful friends

I've been lamenting my daycare woes here the last couple of days. I am blessed to have some truly wonderful friends. I honestly don't know what I'd do without them. Alex's daycare, which is in a church basement is flooded. We get an update every afternoon as to the status... so far, still closed.

Sara watched Alex yesterday, amidst dealing with her own three children and a flooded basement. He had so much fun and talked about them all day yesterday.

Lisa from my book club is watching him today, with her own three children as well. I feel so awful imposing on my friends, but I hope they know what comes around goes around and I will be happy to bail them out when they need it!

Michelle from book club's two daughters are done with school today, and if daycare is down again tomorrow, they may be getting some work out of this.

Therese, she even offered up some nieces to babysit if I need them! I'm really lucky to have such a great network of friends.

Speaking of book club, here's a picture of the fabulous book club babes from earlier this year:

We had a great meeting last night. We discussed "Love Walked In" by Maria de los Santos. This book was AMAZING. I can't even accurately describe it. I haven't had this strong of a reaction to a book in a long time. I recommend it to everyone. Her writing is something to behold. It's a quick read, but you will want to take your time with it and savor every word. I can't wait to read her next book. Our next book club book will be "Comfort Food," by Kate Jacobs, who also wrote "The Friday Night Knitting Club."
