Updates

Happy belated St. Patty's Day!!!!
 
It was wonderful to see the whole group again - I loved the meal & the company! 
 
We have an ILL copy of From the Corner of His Eye if anyone is interested.  I will be out of the office from March 18 to March 24 - but I will leave it on my desk in back.  It is checked out to me so you can just let the student know all they have to do is hand it over to you - the due date is on the cover. :)
 
I updated the 2008 reads on the blog & I re-invited those not in the blog prior - Shirley, you appear to be already in the blog along with Connie & Kathy.  Have fun with this!  :)   Once you are set up you can post the titles you mentioned last SALSA and/or send them to all.  If you look under the settings tab and then the email option you will see how to post your emails - this is a nice option. 
 
Have a Happy Easter everyone!
 
Tina.

Hi everyone, I have missed book club, due to several conflicts, but would love to join you on the 13th of March.  I contacted Shirley re the dinner and if that does not work, I will come for the book discussion.  I have a copy of "Water for Elephants",  I really enjoyed this book.
I would like to be put on the list for "From the Corner of his Eye".  Have a great day everyone!

March 13th - "Salsa" so come as you are and discuss any book you have read or are reading.  I can't wait to share what I have been reading - I love it!  We will eat and then move to a separate room to discuss the book.  Shirley got us reservations at the NDSCS River Valley Inn restaurant, for six members, on March 13th, 2008 - yeah Shirley!  The meal is buffet and the time is 5:30 pm - Shirley, let us know if I have any of this incorrect.  The five members I have attending are Connie, Shirley, Kathy, Carol and Tina.  If you would like to attend or are on this list and cannot attend let Shirley know at Shirley.Fox@ndscs.nodak.edu - this way she can adjust the reservation number.  If you want to attend you have until March 7th to notify Shirley.
