Mom caught me in my closet, after midnight, reading. She asked, What are you doing?<br /><br />I refused to answer, never said a word, ever, to this day.<br /><br />Wanting to read so badly I hid in the closet, just to read. Too profane to answer, Reading.<br /><br />Our pantry is huge, plenty of space to lay down & read, tall window, natural light. Have not done it yet. Loving the anticipation, and right book.<br /><br />XOTTara Dillardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16233493520013405385noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4025769640802524983.post-25703308085448378762016-08-08T23:28:54.198-07:002016-08-08T23:28:54.198-07:00I'm confident you'll tame the beast, Dewen...I'm confident you'll tame the beast, Dewena :-)<br />Amalia<br />xo<br />handmade by amaliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15589172037052603746noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4025769640802524983.post-42006683687710194602016-08-03T20:57:21.627-07:002016-08-03T20:57:21.627-07:00Nora looks thoroughly engrossed in her book.
