Please leave a message at the tone...

Amy is unavailable to take your calls at the moment. She just went to the library and picked up a brand new copy of An Echo in the Bone. This is a BIG FAT historical adult novel with lots of mystery, time travel, and other fun stuff, so she will not be on the computer for a few days. Maybe even weeks. It is the seventh in a series of big fat books called the Outlander series, so she has been waiting a long time for this. She also thinks it is quite fortuitous that the publication falls on the same week as her birthday, because that way she can say that the reason that she isn't cooking, cleaning, doing laundry, or communicating with anyone except about An Echo in the Bone and other Outlander related things is really because it is her birthday, not because she is obsessed with fictitious characters in 1776 and 1980 (remember, I said there was time travel:).

We will return to our regularly scheduled adorable children, either when Amy finishes the book, or it is due back to the library, whichever comes first.
