Behold! Progress!

As you can see in the photo above, I am cranking here . . . on the second woolly man-sweater sleeve. There is not much to see here, really. Except inches of sleeve. With more inches to go. But I am seeing the light at the end of the tunnel here, and I have every confidence that Tom will be able to wear a new fishing sweater this fall.

So that’s the progress part of this post.

The reminder is this . . .

We’re two weeks out from our Read With Us discussion of The Friend, which is scheduled for Tuesday, September 16. As always, we’ll be discussing the book here on our blogs that day, and then hosting a Zoom book club meeting at 7:00 pm (Eastern time) that night.

The book is short, and a relatively quick read, so even if you haven’t had a chance to pick it up yet . . . you still have plenty of time. And . . . this season’s RWU book selection also has a twist . . . a movie twist! You can watch the movie version of The Friend starring Naomi Watts, Bill Murray, and a charming Great Dane . . . which is available to stream (it does still require a rental fee to stream; sorry). So this time around, you can just read the book OR just watch the movie OR . . . both.

If you’d like to join us for the Zoom, please RSVP by September 15 to Bonny, Carole, or me. (There’s even a reservation link in the sidebar here on my blog . . .  just to make it easy.) We hope you’ll Read With Us (or watch with us!) . . . and then join us for the discussion on the 16th.
