While I had help on the farmy.
Feeding out.
Climbing up and down the ladder for me.
Throwing in straw for the piggies. Sheila was thrilled and slightly dismayed as she had to remake her bed.
Making me lunch and trimming naughty Marmalade’s fingernails.
You were all in the Lounge of Comments creating a magnificent reading list. There is still time today if you want to add the books you have loved reading this year.
I did not comment myself yesterday to leave you room for more BOOKS! I am never without at least one book on the go. Like most of you I think.
You are all stars for bringing in all your stories and books for us all to read. Words should be shared I think. Thank you all so much.
I am the luckiest girl to have you all.
And tomorrow I shall spend my couch time making the list and hopefully posting it today or tomorrow, so we can all benefit from being One of the Fellowship. I am going to put the list in my christmas cards this year! Then I will start reading.
Happy Thanksgiving! Lots to be thankful for here!
Love your friend on the farmy,

Thanks to you for being you… an inspiration to many… hows the tail end.??
Definitely recovering in leaps and bounds.. but I am REALLY trying to rest in between, bouts of leaps!c
The Sacred Power of the Sun by Beinsa Douno and Operating Manual for Spaceship Earth by Buckminster Fuller
They are word-lovers books. Read them for the poetry and wordsmanship more than content – though as a sunlover you will like Sacred Power, too.
Simply smiles to add today
(and once the discover the water glass by the bed…one with a lid and straw braced well so it can’t be knocked over during explorations or swinging paw play. …but we’d miss their antics if they weren’t nearby!)
What a lovely post… and for some reason I’m fixated on Sheila lately. She’s a marvel isn’t she? She’s quite photogenic, and always seems to be busy! I think I love her! Keep mending my friend… soon you’ll be doing those chores with gusto!
So glad you’ve had some help. I hope it goes on happening.
And so glad you’ve been pointed in the direction of Truman Capote’s gorgeous Christmas story… I can offer you another Christmas story – very vivid descriptions of England – The Dark is Rising by Susan Cooper … young adult but gripping to this old adult…
Love Marmalade’s drinking your water, my pussy cat always did, even when I put a second glass there for her, and covered mine with a tissue, she’d push the tissue aside and drink mine… little rascals…
Do hope you won’t push yourself, and take it easy until AFTER you feel better.
