I've bought their books and they've bought mine. That kind of support is invaluable.

I became a blogger sort of to re-invent myself after all the kids left and it has been a real life saver for me. Plus I have learned a great deal about the techy stuff although I'm still not a pro like the younger ones. I'll check out some of those reads. Good luck with your challenge.scarlett79https://www.blogger.com/profile/00236708734052658636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1511550796165869351.post-12597198155980178152017-04-04T07:06:50.341-04:002017-04-04T07:06:50.341-04:00Ann, thanks so much!

I have read a few books that fellow bloggers have written, but nothing by Alex or Sandra. I don't follow either of their blogs, but am familiar with their names across blogsphere (I guess spell check doesn't recognize that as a word, LOL). It is always good to get "lost" in a good book.
