Cowboys Are My Weakness
I’m not talking about the cowboy people. I’m referring to my favorite book "Cowboys Are My Weakness" by Pam Houston. I have had this book since it was first published. Now, I lost it in Katrina but it was replaced by a friend. This book is one that I can read over and over again. The short stories always make me smile.
I don’t know why I’ve been thinking about this book lately. It is almost like a security blanket to me. I pick it up and read it when things are stressful or I’m sad or just in a funky mood. I think because my routine has been off and I haven’t been able to exercise like I want to I’ve been a little melancholy lately. Other than the not exercising everything else has been going very well for me. Go figure. I’ve been Betty Crocker this week with my cooking. Thanks Megalicious.
Yesterday a really bad storm came through here. I got caught out in it driving with the kids. Holy moly. It reminded me a lot of Katrina. The crazy wind, the falling pine trees, and the blinding rain. I think that is what has me thinking about my books. My books are so important to me. I’ve lost them 3 times so far in my life now. Hopefully, I won’t lose them again.
So, tonight before I go to sleep, I will be reading about my cowboys and wondering how many beeping messages are there on his answering machine. Read the book if you want to know. Lol.
Peace out, Babycakes.
Thanks for the book reminder. Which one were you reading in Dallas?
