Ages

I know it has been ages since I have posted here or written on anyone's else blog. I have been sick for weeks and weeks. Appparently it is an awful flu, and I can attest to that. Even when you are better, you are not necesarily well yet. I am in that place now. Mostly/somewhat better, but not as well as I hope to be.  Exhausting! 

Anyhow, I hope my blogging friends are doing well, and I will check in again when I am better.

First book of the year - quick review

I finished my first book of 2025 today.

And how I loved it! I was a big fan of Hayley Mills when I was a kid, as were most people my age. 

As she wrote about the movies she has been in, I realized that I may have seen only Pollyanna and The Parent Trap. I am going to try and get ahold of some of the more serious ones like Tiger Bay and Whistle Down the Wind, as well as some of the ones she did when she was older. 

She is a very good writer. Highly recommended.
