This is how it works:
Pass this on to 5 blogging friends. Open the closest book to you, not your favorite or most intellectual book, but the book closest to you at the moment, to page 56. Write the 5th sentence, as well as two to five sentences following that.
I'm in the middle of reading "The Shack". Here is the 5th, 6th and 7th sentence: "Mack felt like he was moving in slow motion inside the eye of a hurricane of activity happening all around him. Report filtered in from everywhere. Even Emil was busy networking with the people and professionals he knew". In this story, the lead character just found out tragic news and was still looking into the mystery of what happened.
If I had pulled a book right near me, it would have been a cookbook, because my laptop is on the kitchen counter. I didn't think you would want to hear from that. But if you want to get literal, page 56 from "Deceptively Delicious" was a picture of a pile of pancakes.
I haven't blogged in a while. I don't want to neglect my other duties that have gotten harder now that I have a job. It's nice to be tagged on a meme so I can have an excuse to say Hi. Even though most of my hits are from people who don't know what to do about their full brick wall fireplace, or they want to get ideas on how to finish their basement, or they like St. Faustina and want to read her quotes.
Today I have a Christmas Luncheon for work. So, I need to do the dishes, wrap a $5 gift and bring Mary to my sister's. I'll catch up later!!

Missy--Thanks for playing along with the meme! I have The Shack, but have been reluctant to start reading it.
David Kauffman comes to town fairly often, most recently in Nov. I was doing a retreat that weekend so I didn't get to be there, but I have been to his concerts a few times. I'll leave a comment for you if I hear that he will be in town again.
Yah...I was all excited and my mom acted all nonchalant about it saying, "Oh, he comes in a lot. I've seen him a vew times". I guess I wasn't on the circuit before. That would be great to hear of future concerts...
Glad you're back, sweetheart! I also have The Shack and haven't picked it up yet. Have heard mixed reviews and just don't have the time right now to spend on reading right now! I'll check in with you at Christmas to get your take on it. Love, Kathy
