The High Noon Book Club enjoyed reading the book Going Down South. We also had a wonderful time discussing the book
High Noon Book Club Members from left to right include: C. Carter, V. Abbott, I. Green, M. Perry (Librarian), L. Thompson (technician), F. Brown, and C. Dyson.
We discussed how there is a long standing history of blacks going down south to get away from life situations in the city. We all remembered going down south to spend time with our grandparents. We also, discussed how life was so much different in the south. The pace was slower so, you were more relaxed. We also remembered how you learned lessons that you may not have other wised learned if we had not visited the south (grandparents). This was the case with Daisy and Olivia Jean. Oh! Birdie too, even though she was from the south.
Bonnie Glover and Sherri Shepherd (THE VIEW) at the Pembroke Pines Barnes & Noble signing her new book PERMISSION SLIPS. The proceeds from the book sales went to a local charity called Embrace Girls Foundation, Inc.
Covering topics such as "It's Jesus or Jail," "Marriage, the Hard Way," "Children: The Gift You Can't Give Back," and "All the Things I Don't Know...And All the Things I Definitely Do," stand-up comedienne, actress, and ABC's The View co-host Sherri Shepherd comically chronicles her struggles to keep up with the many roles-professional, wife, mother, daughter, and friend-that women must play in today's world. Sherri urges women to pursue their most important dreams and to never give up, but also let's readers know that it's okay to give themselves "permission slips" when things don't always work out the way they want them to.
Written by Bonnie Glover
It is bitterly cold outside with the wind roused and whipping at the legs of our boys. The sun has decided to peek in short moments through the heavy clouds and we, the parents, are huddled close together on the sidelines. We pace back and forth and offer encouragement to each other,
"You must have given Eric some Wheaties this morning."
"Wow, did you see that goal?"
There are smiles between the gusts of wind that cut our breath off and eventually high fives all around when our guys carry the day. We've had a so-so season and it's good that we have this win. A win sustains the spirit, keeps everyone motivated. This is travel soccer and it's easy to get fed up and discouraged. It's all about new places and towns every weekend, maps and getting lost.Page 1 of 4
