Tagged

My friend Liz tagged me with this challenge:

1. Pick up the nearest book.

2. Open to page 123.

3. Find the fifth sentence.

4. Post the next three sentences.

5. Tag five people and post a comment to the person who tagged you once you've posted your three sentences.

Here it is: "The School for Wives" Act II, scene 5. Moliere (I've never actually read this play.)

AGNES: Indeed he did! My hands and arms he seized, And kissed and kissed them, seeming very pleased.

ARNOLPHE: Agnes, was there anything else he took? (Seeing her taken aback) Ouf!

Okay, I have absolutely no idea what this is about. I only have this book because it also contains another of Moliere's plays, "Tartuffe," from which I memorized a monologue at one time.

I am afraid to tag anyone else, so I guess the buck stops here...this time. So, you're all off the hook.

Edie's Perch

Some days I think Edie is one year going on 25. She wants to be up where mommy and daddy are doing things ALL the time. So I let her sit on the counter when I am washing dishes or preparing dinner. And yes I have had a few scares while she's been up there. For the most part, though, she is pretty well behaved, as long as she can see and be a part of what's going on.



Edie reading some home repair books we checked out from the library.






















Why play with toys when you can wash dishes?

Demolition Begins!


John got a "bee in his bonnet," as my mom always says, this past weekend and decided to tear out one of the walls along our basement staircase. It is the first step in our summer project: a bedroom for the babies. He has been so excited about the new look, he has gone down there more in the past two days than in the entire 7 months we've lived here.

Grandma Ruth


My Grandma Ruth was recently interviewed for an article in USU's alumni magazine. She graduated from USU in 1930. She was one of 53 women to graduate that year.
