We’re finally here. It’s the last Thursday of the year and my final round up for the “decade”! Happy Thursday All!!
A book I read
Den of Thieves – James B Stewart
(As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.)
Working in finance, you would think that this would be on my reading list a long time ago. Well, it was but I never got around to reading. It’s 550 pages in small print. So you can imagine that what a dauting task I thought it would be particularly because this is a true account and written by a journalist. I was so wrong. It’s such a well-written, exciting book. The writer has taken a subject matter that should be riddled with technical language and made it a novel that I couldn’t put down.
I’m glad that this is the book I chose to end this decade of reading.
A song I’m listening to
One Republic – I lived
So many good songs have come out in the last 10 years. It’s hard to pick one that would be appropriate. But, I think this is a good one to end the decade.
Words I love
A child will make love stronger, days shorter, nights longer, pay packets emptier, homes happier, clothes shabbier….
The Past Forgotten and the Future Worth Living.
~Collected
My mother had this plaque hanging in her room and she would read this to me over and over again. It made me happy that I was all that for her. But I never fully understood those words until my daughter was born.
