Blow Wind Blow

I am so tired of the wind. It has blown nonstop for weeks here, not a soft little breeze that stirs the curtains on the windows or gently sways the trees, this is a 30 miles an hour wind, it blows the curtains off of the windows and the leaves off of the trees. It would be less irritating if it was even a little cooling but no it is a hot straight out of hell wind. I guess I should stop complaining, this is North Texas and you always get wind but like any good whiner, I am not going to stop complaining :D .

I have been reading this summer, (OK, I know it is not officially summer but when the temps get to 100 and up, that makes it summer in my book ) . I have read Shoot the Moon by Billie Letts and Black Order by James Rollins. Both books were really good, I liked Shoot the Moon because it was a nice little mystery that did not require a lot of brain power and I loved Black Order because well...I LOVE everything that James Rollins writes. He gets you to use your critical thinking skills while you are reading and then in the last few pages he wraps up everything nice and tightly and does not leave you hanging wondering what happened.
