SO glad I am not the only one!! I hate Valentine's Day.

I have to say, Anthony, this book club idea of yours was fantastic! I need to finish another book I am reading before I can start on the Tiger's Wife. But, really looking forward to reading it!

I read some reviews that said they didn't like the final book. (No, I won't divulge). I actually liked it, coming from a PTSD standpoint. I think having PTSD yourself truly changes your understanding of the book. Someone who does not have it, finds it disturbing but not to the same intensity. I...

I had just finished the whole series about the time a book club was mentioned. This series was absolutely captivating while causing all kinds of PTSD reactions in me! I could relate to Katniss a little too well. I was having nightmares. At the same time, I couldn't put the books down. Kinda like...

I live on the opposite coast from my family. I need to go help with my father and I have been in a panic about how I travel 3,000 miles. I finally decided to rent a vehicle and drive rather than fly. It will cost more but I was having a panic attack just looking at flights. I can't believe I am...

Overwhelmed. Very overwhelmed.

Spend hours on the phone with my sister (a good thing). My father isn't doing well. We talked about Mom and Dad (Mom passed away 17 years ago Thursday) and made some discoveries. Then, had nightmares all night. So this morning, tired and the head cold is really awful. Today I am making the BBQ...

Got a wicked cold. I don't remember the last timeI was this congested. Ugh!! But, it is a good reason to hide insides it is surprisingly OK. I hate the cold but love the excuse. It is better than "I am having a panic attack... I can't."

VFF, Katie and Tina are beautiful! What a great picture!! I am so glad you have them. My GSD pup is my lifeline. While he makes me crazy (he is in doggy adolescence), I don't know what I'd do without him. My goal is to train him as my service dog. Even if he doesn't make it to that, he is my...

The cold that has been hovering has finally hit - stuffed up, sneezing, sore throat. Ugh. I guess I should be glad it has finally hit - it has been threatening for days. Now that it is here, I can start getting over it.Wrapped in a blanket and dozing.

I agree with going chapter by chapter, even if the chapters are different lengths. Reading it as an ebook, it is hard to tell how many book pages I am reading.

Oh heavens... just when I thought this thread had gone down the, well, toilet... I tell you, I can't use the bathroom without thinking of this thread. And yes, I have been converted... Folder... :confused:

Starting mine today! Love my Kindle!!

(((Rain))) (((All in pain))) Just going to get through another day. That is my goal every day. Just survive. Wish I could reach for more but survival feels like all I can manage. What's the point?

Feel rotten. Between the anxiety, depression, asthma and injured thumb/wrist (my dominant hand, of course), I just want to wrap in a blanket and not move.

I find reading on my iPad difficult on my eyes as well. So, I also bought the smallest of the Kindles. It isn't backlit so it doesn't hurt my eyes like a computer or the iPad can. Since it is small, I take it everywhere. I occasionally will read on my phone but it is the same issue as the iPad -...

I had to read the whole trilogy as well. Can't just start the story and not finish it.

Count me in. I am usually reading about 4 books at a time (dog training books at the moment... not book club stuff). No suggestion at the moment. I just finished The Art of Racing in the Rain. Good book if you are a dog fan. Won't call it classic literature. Also finished Hunger Games series -...

Thank you, LH. I will need to copy these for myself as well. I couldn't even read through the whole list because it seems so foreign to me. I have "rights?" The whole concept seems so impossible right now. But, I will keep your list and try to work on it. Thank you.

Cold with snow on the way. Got a couple of inches of snow last night and supposedly 4-6 inches tomorrow. Monday it is supposed to be near 50 (fahrenheit) and raining. Ugh.

We had snow last night and my pup is experiencing some of his snow. Took him out for his before bedtime pee and it was snowing. He was so excited he was jumping up, trying to catch the snow as it fell. It made me laugh out loud. Watching him play in the snow makes me happy. Oh to be so care-free.

Hang in there! I am sorry you are stuck with crutches!! :( I was on crutches once and they were awful!!! I hope your friends can help some more. I slipped down some stairs at my house and had a huge bruise on my bum for months. Sad thing was, it wasn't the first time I had fallen down those...

I am curious about the online course you took. I have a 6 month old German Shepherd puppy I want to train as a service dog for myself. For now, we just want to get to his CGC. My 6 month old pup can be terrible but he is also one of the few that can make me laugh and because of his breed, he...

I spent 90 minutes playing in the snow with the pup this morning. We also played in the middle of last night - it is his first snow and watching him play was too much fun to bring him in. Also took him to the local tennis court, turned him loose and played fetch. This is activity for me because...

I am so sorry for your loss. My dogs have always been my best friends. Every loss was heartbreaking. ((hugs))
