If I were to sit down and write down all the things I have to do in the next week or so--even just the next 48 hours--I'm sure it would end in chocolate and tears. Which may or may not be a bad thing. So I'm not going to bother with making a to do list. And if I start to feel down, I'll just take a moment or two to count my blessings. After reading This World We Live In by Susan Beth Pfeffer, I have no reason to stress. I'd take my life over Miranda's any day!

I really want to read some Georgette Heyer but I just haven't gotten around to it yet.
I say skip the tears, but not the chocolate!!!
I have yet to read Susan Beth Pfeffer. Sigh . . . I'm feeling really left out.
These Old Shades and Black Sheep are probably my very favourite Heyers. I've loved her since I was a young teen, and she is still my comfort read.
