June 2014 Bookclub News

Dear Bookclub,

Consensus! We will be meeting this month at 4 PM at the Veranda to discuss Scott Stossel's, "My Age of Anxiety".

I first heard about Stossel's story on Fresh Air; very interesting. I really recommend hearing his voice tell the tale:

Sign of anxiety at NOLA Jazzfest 2014.



Deep breath. Read.

May Bookclub News

Dear Bookclub,
Our fascinating adventure to the Spirit of St. Louis at the San Diego Air & Space Museum was delightfully fueled by our 2 1/2 hour lunch at The Prado. Sharing it all with Valerie, Pam and Ginger will definitely put this meeting in bold in our memory banks! I am sorry that we didn't get a picture with our beloved Terr-y-ies (next time block out a day and a half for our little lunch meeting).


Anyone interested in purchasing the old Lindbergh mural? (Disclosure: it has a bit of a "black biological substance" deposit.) Thursday's paper had this interesting column by Diane Bell about our airport art:

Books I suggested for our next selection:
"Thank You for Your Service" by David Finkel
"Sous Chef, 24 Hours on the Line" by Michael Gibney
"The Boys in the Boat" by Daniel James Brown


Stave off any anxiety about getting it finished by starting it now!!


(And nothing says, "Happy Mother's Day" like a nag about anxiety.)

I appreciate all that you, as friends, have shared over the years about being mothers, grandmothers, aunties, daughters,  & granddaughters. You inspire and support more than you will every know!











Read with peace of mind,
