Hello Saturday
Tracey and Scott came for a visit Friday morning, bringing some yummy banana bread right from the oven. It’s one of our favorites and we enjoyed every bite!
I was looking for a sunny day and had plans to sit on the porch and read. The weather has been so good lately, and then, I get up to a cloudy overcast day, no sunshine to be found. Blah Blah Blah.
I’ve started a new book. .
.
Billy Fixit is a
heart-warming small-town story.
A heartwarming story of
country life.
Billy had lived in the quiet town of Grand Valley for as long as anyone could
remember. He was the town’s general repairman, looking after the town’s needs;
in return, the townspeople looked after him. People knew him to be polite but
mysterious, preferring to keep to himself. Billy’s outlook was simple; he had
many acquaintances, but few friends.
That’s why people found it curious when he struck up an unlikely friendship
with ten-year-old Joe Kovacs, the youngest member of a family having just moved
from the city. Although he found friends, it was Joe’s odd bond with Billy that
helped him feel truly at home in the rural town.
What no one realized was Billy carried a burden, one that haunted him for his
lifetime. Now, a chance opportunity arose, one that would allow him to
challenge the guilt he carried. With Joe by his side, he was finally ready to
face the fears he’d run from for years.
I’m several chapters in and now familiar with the place, and I’ve met a lot of characters, but not Billy Fixit! Surely, he’ll show up soon.
It’s turned into a really
gloomy day, I’m going to turn on the TV and see if I can find a good movie.
Lamentations 3:22–23
Until Next Time

Wishing you a beautiful day, I will have to look for that book, smiles.
ReplyDeleteThat book sounds like an interesting read. I'll have to look into it.
ReplyDeleteI love how your daughters look after you and Mr. D!
ReplyDeleteBilly Fix-It sounds like a really enjoyable read; I love small towns.
Dear Mary, that book looks very good.
ReplyDeleteI wish you a wonder filled weekend.
That book does sounds interesting!
ReplyDeleteI have some very over ripe bananas and should probably make banana bread.
(Isn't it strange that we all seem to call it banana BREAD when really it's a loaf?)
The book sounds good. I've started baking banana nut muffins because when I make the bread the top of it never seems to get done.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great treat that banana bread was, and even sweeter because of who delivered it right from the oven!! That book sounds like a good one! I need to see if it is on Kindle. I hope you have found some sunshine this weekend for that front porch sit!! xo
ReplyDeleteThe book sounds a good read.
ReplyDeleteI sat quietly earlier and enjoyed reading a few more pages of my book.
Have a peaceful weekend.
All the best Jan
The book sounds good...and there's not much better than warm banana bread and a hot coffee!
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday...

Warm banana bread is one of my favorites too. With some butter melted on it and a glass of cold milk. Yummy.
ReplyDeleteThe book sounds good. I hope your weather improves. After so much warm weather, we had 9 1/2 inches of snow Thursday and it's 3F today. Next Thursday is supposed to be 66F so lots of the snow will be gone. Hurray!
Blessings and hugs,
