I am so into reading these days…I have Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil going now, in addition to Icy Sparks, and now I’ve begun, Eat, Pray, Love. I love where books take me. I take something wonderful and inspiring from each novel I manage to devour. These books will take me to Savannah, Ga, Kentucky, Italy, Indonesia and India, respectively.Today I had a bit of pampering-I decided on the cheap route and went to the local cosmotology school and had a manicure, pedicure and hair cut-all for $41. I love to have my hair combed and sectioned off and trimmed. It feels so good. Except, there’s always that time while getting a shampoo that the girl always seems to miss that itchy part at the base of the back of my head. I’m lying there looking up willing her fingers to that spot with my mind. Sometimes I get bold enough to tell her “Can you get right here?” and I proceed to show quickly show her the spot.
I’m contemplating getting a tattoo somewhere on me. I only want one, and although I used to think they were a negative thing to get, I now think of them as something that could be an expression of my artsy personality. I don’t mind a little something fun to look at on my skin. I’m thinking of a spool of red thread with the thread going around my ankle as though it were an anklet. Hmmm…I’m not sure.
Lately, it’s been nice to wake up refreshed in the morning. I changed my habits a bit and am now staying up a bit later and waking up a bit later. I don’t feel tired like I used to. I feel refreshed. It helps that the days are so much longer now that summer’s almost here. No more feeling like a Lazy Jane all day because I am pooped.

I just found your blog recently and I love it! You are so honest and refreshing. I was happy to see you're reading "Midnight". It's a great book. I live in Savannah and it't a beautiful place. I do believe in ghosts, too! I used to watch Sylvia Brown on Montel. I also watch "Ghost Hunters" religiously…interesting stuff!

I love the spool of thread tattoo idea! I got a tat to celebrate my 40th birthday – a Celtic knot just below my left knee. I have an idea for another one, but don't know where to put it…and I'm not sure I want more than one.

The thread around the ankle is a neat idea, but remember that red fades. I have a little heart that needs to be recolored. Oh, and the ankle is a sensitive area.
I do believe in ghosts. I believe I had one in my last house. It was a woman and I think she watched over me. She took one of my quilt blocks. Maybe it was my Mom.

I like your book choices. I read and enjoyed them.
I had a ghost in my house (two houses ago) She visited me several times. She never scared me. I wonder if she makes herself known to the people who live there now…
