Swimming Against The Current

First, my sincerest thanks to everyone who commented about their favorite Children’s book on last Friday’s post. I had not really meant to leave it up so very long, but things have just been lined up against my best attempts at regular Monday and Tuesday posts. Monday at work was hellishly busy, then we had company Monday night. Tuesday afternoon I had written my clever post about Jim Hightower’s Swim Against The Current, made sure all of the many links were correctly placed, all italics and punctuation in order, all of the tags and categories set correctly. I pressed Publish. And got an Earthlink configurator screen. Some days….
My thanks to Bookcalendar, who tagged me with the Bookworm’s Challenge meme, which was so bookish that I actually followed the instructions and posted the fifth sentence on page 56 of the book nearest to hand (the Hightower) as well as the two following sentences to give the reader some tiny bit of context. My apologies that all of that, the meme the book review and everything else got tossed into the ether. And I’m terribly sorry but I just haven’t the heart to write it all again. Thanks for your visit to the Thin Red Line today and please come back again tomorrow when I hope to be back to my regular book review posts, and I do have some great books lined up for this week. Swimming Against The Current– Recommend only to those with stable internet connections. Buy now only $25.95

When everything is suddenly more expensive because of gas and a tanking stock market libraries look very good and get very busy because they are free. We also have been very busy lately at times. Remember go with the flow. Thanks for the thought.
