Sunday Salon ~ A Sunny Sunday!

I'm on my way outside to sit in the sun and read. I've got the Sunday Times and Daughter of Fortune. I'd be nuts not to take advantage of the sun after the pouring rain we had yesterday, a lot of it at night but still very wet. Those storms ushered in a beautiful day today and I'm planning to take advantage of that! I wouldn't mind getting a little sun, either especially since I'm looking like Casper's sister right now. I wish being tan didn't look good on or make me look healthy but it does and I love it! Every year I try to talk myself out of sunning but those first warm days sitting outside, reading and soon enough, there I am with my face towards the sun, glasses off, tanning. Oh well!



Addie and JoJo, the poor things, have a stomach bug I think. They may have eaten something that didn't agree with them, too. They've both been getting sick for the last two days and eating very little. It's noticeable when JoJo doesn't eat especially because she's like a lot of dogs...if it's food and it's in front of her, or somewhere close by, she'll eat it. I've seen her practically take food out of Bob's mouth and he's more than twice her size! She adores food! And it shows, she's becoming a little roly-poly kitty with a big belly! I'm hoping none of the other cats get sick.


I have a lot of books to read. I got a little carried away with reviewing for TLC Books but they always have interesting books and a good variety. Today I'm reading Ordinary Thunderstorms by William Boyd and Daughter of Fortune by Isabel Allende. Tonight I'm hoping to finish, or come close to finishing Husband and Wife by Leah Stewart which is more interesting than I expected.


I hope you have a great Sunday and the sun is shining on you!

Happy Reading!

  2. I know tanning is not good for anyone but I look so much healthier with a bit of a glow. I've got Lupus though so I have to watch the sun a bit more but I'm willing to put up with a bit of a flare just to have that healthy glow. Bad, huh?

  3. Oh a little bit of sun isn't going to hurt you. You need the Vitamin C and melatonin! I read Daughter of Fortune as well (on audio) and I really liked it. Great minds think alike!

  10. I use to use baby oil and iodine to tan beginning when I was about 13. I stopped serious tanning about 10 years ago, but agree we all look healthier with tans.

    Hope the little kitties get better soon. Freckles eats plants and toilet paper and then is always throwing up...UGH
