July Bookclub This Monday 7/29/13

Hey gals, Its that time again. Meeting Monday at 4:30pm at ALi's house. Tristana is sending a menu out to everyone so if you haven't heard from her get in touch. Please keep in mind that I will need to leave my house for work at 7:45pm so we will need to be done by that time. REVISITING the meeting day options; Mondays aren't going to work for me after this week. I have a class with students and money coming to my classes on Mondays at 6pm, then I work at 8pm. This gives crappy timing to meet not to mention I probably wont want to eat before working people out. So are options are few but here they are, please give suggestions as I would like to continue being apart of this club. MERIAH: If we moved club to sundays at 6 or 7pm would that work for Jim and you? Would a later time on Sunday work for everyone else? MAREN what is the Tuesday hang up for you again? Last option is that I will either have to visit club for an hour and bail or opt out for a few clubs. Maybe I can interject from a far. I don't know what to do but I would like any suggestions if you have any. Thanks ladys see you Monday.

Any thoughts?? see if this link works https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaQkQeuD389MCgHoO3Cz-20dUX0AMKtgggGeoj22gGO_nPU5lrlj1XjDXs2RONUTSBtCWsuiTU5k3bwF4zmtdzLwo8Aj8fOBsXgBWQnkdA25Po4hQfGskRlB8HufQPH1lNJdO9Jd30pHyR/s1600/Book-report-one-page-fiction.JPG The link should take you to a simple book report form.
