Great timing! Definitely have tissues handy. Discussion is tonight! Can't wait to see what everyone else thought of the book!Bookfoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08247136634069540446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29370872.post-55832403018127788992017-03-15T14:21:58.302-05:002017-03-15T14:21:58.302-05:00Same here.

Amazing how badly an hour's time change can whack you up. <br /><br />Ha, yeah, bit of a contrast with your weather! I'm sitting in front of a window and there's an iris blooming in our front yard (way early), roses already blown out across the street, and all of the trees have at least budded, now - redbuds and dogwoods in bloom. It's wintery cold for us, but it sure doesn't look like winter.

I do think it helps if there's an entertaining curmudgeon in your life. I liked Ove from the beginning because I understand how sweet a grumpy old guy can be, beneath the crusty exterior. If he ticks you off, at first, just hang in there. :) <br /><br />Thanks! Those are zoo azaleas. Ours are blooming but they're a bit scraggly. The zoo azaleas are magnificent.

I took an Ambien, last night, in the hopes that will help reset my body clock so it won't drag on for so long, this year.
