Books books, books (sung to the tune of Girls girls, girls) Shawshank, November 23, 2020 So today, with moms approval, I was allowed to move the “Romance Rack” – consisting of at least 80-90% of Nora Roberts complete library out of my room, and back into the living room, where they came from. The Romance Rack with all the dust catchers on it. I waited until my mom and grandmother left for a hair appointment, then moved the bookcase out, and through multiple trips? Brought all the bodice rippers out. So then, I had to move my bookcase over a bit. You see the chunks of wood there? I cut those, with no adult supervision! It only took a few seconds to figure out how to turn on the table saw. I need them there because when I moved moms bookcase, my books fell to the floor. Wood paneling AND that carpet. Hello 1972! Shady Acres is taking a nap. Then we’re off to SlightlyBiggerTown, and I think this’ll be the first week in a long time that I won’t look for books. For two reasons: 1. I’m out of money. 2. I’m out of room on the bookcase. This will be the week that at least 1 of the books on my want list will be there, and someone else will pick it up. I just know it.

It’s to tell everyone to close up shop for either a half or a full hour to take lunch. I’ve now learned when I go to the post office after lunch, I’m picking up… Read More
Lockup Library So I want to be a paperback writer October 4, 2020 I stare at my books a lot. I look for more books that I want to read. Hopefully I can find some in the two or three second hand stores that I regularly go into. TinyTown and the surrounding areas, I figure, aren’t really into reading. The closest book store… Read More
Lockup Library Book haul – just one this time January 18, 2021January 18, 2021 I know, I know. I said a couple of days ago, that I probably wouldn’t buy books while in SlightlyBiggerTown, because the second hand store was closed on Saturday. I was in the local “general” store. Kind of like a tiny Walmart, and there’s a little section of books. I… Read More
