Tagged!!!

Jonna at http://shelbycountymuses.blogspot.com/
has tagged me to do the book tag..I am reading Gerald's Game by Steven King...these r the rules:

1. Grab the nearest book of 123 pages or more.
2. Open it to page 123.
3. Find the first 5 sentences and write them down.
4. Then invite 5 friends to do the same.


ok this is what it says...

Water sloshed onto her hand, and now she sensed that even if the shelf held, the glass would soon tip over.

Imaginations, toots---just the old idea that a sad little Punkin like you can never do anything right.

That wasnt far from the mark---it was certainly to close for comfort---but it wasnt on the mark, not this time. The glass was getting ready to tip over, it really was, and she didn't have the slightest idea of what she could do to prevent that from happening. Why did she have to have such short, stubby, ugly fingers?

Anybody that wants to do this is welcome to.....

.....Sounds like me, always knocking into things and knocking things over.

I'm meant to be doing this one. Maybe later when I've finished the sad posts for the moment.

It sounds fascinating by the way-

Claudette, Sorry about the loss of Lacy Lulu. With all that has been going on in your life recently, please know that you and your husband and family are in our thoughts and prayers.

Many hugs,

Jonna

Dearest LacyLulu and Claudette - Mom says you might need a new monitor. She can't find anything purple on our blog. But you could always copy the text and paste it into "notebook". Maybe it would be easier to read that way??

We love you

Mary-Margaret and her mom

I'm so sorry to hear that you lost little LacyLulu in March. I've been grieving my own Clive so much that haven't been keeping up on blogs lately. You are so lucky to have had so much love from her. Know that she and Clive are playing at the Rainbow Bridge.

Hugs,
Kathy, Clive's Mom

Cyndi and Stumpy said...

Hi Claudette!

Thanks for stopping over and saying hello to Stumpy and myself. Gus, Callie and Louie are so kind to send over some new friends!!!

Too bad about Calllie going to jail, huh? It just goes to show you bad things can happen to nice dogs.

I am sorry that you have lost your best friend, Lacylulu. You must miss her something awful. I am sure she's not far, watching closely to make sure you are ok. It's what best friends do, no matter what.

White Dog Blog said...

Thanks for visiting my blog! I am feeling much better now; it must have been something I ate (I DO love to munch are weird stuff in the yard sometimes)! Please come and read my adventures again soon. Mom says we will try the book game this afternoon (she is reading DOG Man about the saving of the Akita breed after WWII, there were only 12 left).

I love your picture up there.....You know how my mum is horse crazy and barn crazy!
That is great that you could help out with something like an Amber Alert Blog..You are so dear to me, do you know that?
I will try and keep track of the ones that could do the idea or could help and then post the list and let whoever can do it, go from there.
Kisses and paw huggies
