Getting On - I don't remember whether I wrote about this HBO show now in its second season, but if you like cringe worthy laughs, this would be the show. It's about Dawn, a nurse on the geriatric floor of some kind of medical facility. And it's a half hour show!This Is Your Life Harriet Chance by Jonathan Evison - Here's a book for a book group that enjoys long discussions about author intent and character motivation. A 78 year old widow is visited by her dead husband who seems to be visiting her in order to work something out. It's easy and fast to read, sort of good, told in an interesting present tense and set in and around Seattle. Again with Seattle. Which is only to say that a number of books have taken place there recently. If you want to read about Harriet's life, have at it and take it to the club for lots of analysis. Chicago PD, Fire and Med - They're all great! Night time soap operas with excellent characters, Chicago scenery, and just enough crossover between shows to add complexity and a pleasant connection. PD is my favorite, then Fire a close second and Med is still growing on me, but med shows in general are not my favorite genre.
Her Heart On Her Sleeve: I live in a suburb north of Chicago, and I read, bead, make jewelry, sew, watch TV and movies, crochet, craft, decorate, go to house and garage sales, walk and go on beach walks, listen to music, take pictures, cook and bake, read, and write about all of it on herheartonhersleeve. I have a companion blog called Jewlery by Dianne Sophia at diannesophia.blogspot.com where I write exclusively about my jewelry.
Jewelry By Dianne Sophia: I have been collecting vintage jewelry since I was a girl growing up in Detroit, and have been designing and making jewelry for 15 years. I love to work with pearls and crystals, semi-precious stones, Sterling Silver and Gold, along with vintage beads and materials. I delight in combining shape, pattern and color in new ways. I'm inspired and influenced by my travels and experiences as a reader, writer, photographer and student of life. My blog herheartonhersleeve.blogspot.com chronicles my life in art and popular culture.
