Remember I told you, I'm the one the staff tell the customers to see me if they are looking for a particular book. The sale started Thursday night and ends today, four days of fun. There is no other place in the whole wide world I want to be is hanging out at libraries, bookstores or sitting outside (the weather has been so beautiful), with a glass of wine or coffee and 5 or more books to feel, read, smell, and enjoy. I am blessed beyond blessed. So many books, so little time and so little money, but this sale has books for one to three dollars. I didn't even go over my budget. Dave Ramsey would be proud of me.!!!
On Saturday night, my Book Club Groupies meet for our monthly meeting. I set it up this month and asked that since we have not meet on a regular in the last three months, let's just talk about books we have read. Just about all showed up, and a new member. We went to a new Sushi place that opened a month ago in my neighborhood. Instead of driving, I walked there. I don't know why I don't walk more to the grocery store or library, they are so close. I think I will start that. I've walked Tommy my dog just as far, so I might as well keep walking to other places. Here are all of the books I brought at the sale. Some to give away and some to read over and over again. Boy, am I a happy camper!!!
