Happy Holidays Ladies!  I hope you are enjoying the book.  I think you may find Oprah's "conversation" with Michelle interesting:

Reset for 2019....

Thanks to Laura's teaching background and therefore accurate note taking I now believe the blog has a current list of who's doing what when!  If changes need to be made we can easily alter in January!

January's Book (selected by Natalie) is Michelle Obama's new book, her biography. 

We decided to revisit our book theme in January as we wanted Barb & Jane's feedback on what might help us all ensure we select interesting books that work for everyone while helping us all learn a little bit more while we read!

Laura - again thanks for hosting Christmas, your holiday house was beautiful as well as the meal you served!  Sorry we never got to sing happy birthday to your boy! 

Barb - you'll see Palm Springs is on the list for an April location... you'll need to tell us if you think that's still possible, we all love the idea!

Twas' the Night Before Christmas!

Ladies:
Thank you for coming to the west end, not sure why I am thanking when we also travel to the east end!   Anyway, it was a great night, facilitated by Julia, most enjoyed the book and everyone had something to say.  The gift exchange did not disappoint, as the Elves did well presenting gifts in secret. The winners were those who wore their Christmas Cracker crowns the longest...or was is Carol who got a prized possession for all her travels.... No matter what we all made Santa's Nice list.  We also went about resetting our year, a true New Year's Eve.  So someone smarter than me please publish on the column on the left but here is what we determined, through fair selections:

Month             Host       Book Selector
January            Jane         Natalie               Book Selected Michelle Obama Biography
February          Natalie     Christine
March              Christine   Mirianna
April                 Barb PALM SPRINGS BOOK CLUB book selector Jane
May                  Carol        Julia
June                  Julia         Barb
July                  Cottage     Carolyn
August             Cottage      The cottage will be a summer month TBA
September        Carolyn     Laura
October             Mirianna   Marney
November         Marney      Carol

Let me know if there is a mistake.  Thank you all for another great year, I feel privileged to be part of your tribe.

Love Always and Best Wishes for a Merry Christmas and Happy New year!
Laura
