ON THE BACK BURNER

Yesterday was a banner day for me. I heard from two grandson's asking me if the book that I was reading , which had to do with habits was one written by Charles Duhigg . No, I never heard of Charles. But not wanting the opportunity to be considered a dinosaur, I looked him up. Where have I been. What have I been reading. (cook books) .He is a NYT writer. He won a Pulitzer prize, he's been on NPR. He lives in Brooklyn. Maybe my daughter knows him.! He has been on the best seller list. Everyone knows who he is. Except me. Because Uchitelle's never let an opportunity to go to the library go by, I went and got out his book. I will read Charles as soon as I finish the book that I am reading now. The book that I am reading is "Better than Before" by Gretchen Rubin.She will help me work on my own habits. But I want to get to the part where I can change some one elses habits. (I'll let you know how that goes !) Then , still yesterday, I got several emails saying how I can tone down my neon hair. Prell, they said. I only had Palmolive with Oxyclean and that did not work. Two people wrote and said that they liked my hair, and another email wanted to know the number of the color . One said that I was very brave to change my hair color. All things considered , it was a good day.

Don't quite know how this got to me but it was on the top line of my computer (not in email) But I really enjoyed it. I truly admire you.
