#24

Finished a cute little read by Belva Plain titled "Heartwood." Set in the 1980's it features a family of parents and grown children who have made some interesting choices for their lives in that time frame. The only daughter has become a Martha Stewart type who out of desperation to keep the family's finances afloat has had to make a living the only way she knows how. Cooking and creating. Her husband keeps getting side tracked from finishing his doctorate program and can't seem to stay on track with his chosen career. The changes have caused a rift between she and her husband and also with her mother. Probably not one of Belva's best novels. Okay, but not a five star read.

Looking forward to two days off! Will be awhile before that happens again so I hope to take advantage of it. Still have to finish my stained glass project.
