A Murder in Belmont

finished it today. The whole deal is...a handyman who worked for the authors family when he was a baby later confessed to being The Boston Strangler. He had tried to lure the mother into the basement one day & freaked her out, she bolted the basement door & he left. another day he was being real handsy with one of her art students & she told him that made her very uncomfortable & it better not happen again. they even had a picture taken with the guy in the studio he helped build for them. it was interesting & spooky.

started Candles Burning, a book that Tabitha King finished for a deceased author who died about a hundred pages into the novel. took an afternoon nap, then took katie to walmart jean shopping, her jeans still fit but are falling apart. found 1 pair that fit her right, & she thought they made her look fat. she swears she'll never wear them. they're in the dryer now. we'll just see.

reloaded the dishwasher, caught up on laundry, & all seems well on the homefront. tomorrow is back to school for the kids & work for me, dance class, delivering all the cookies katie sold...4-H on thursday.
