It’s that time of the year! Time for the Friend’s of the Library Book Sale!!
Frankly, I was very concerned. I didn’t get there at lunch time. I waited until after work. I was really afraid all the good stuff might be gone!
And the Guy wanted to go, too. Not for the books. Just to get out of the house, but he had some stuff to do first! I had to wait on him
Tick tock tick tock…I knew people were buying my books!
Finally. We got there. What a relief. The tables were still full. There was plenty to choose from. And at dinner time on Friday? There were no crowds to fight. It was a very nice experience overall. And I made quite a haul.
Yes, indeed. I have reading material for another year. At least. (clicky for biggy and the titles/authors may be readable)
Now the Guy isn’t so much into the booksale. He looked around at other palces in the mall, checking in on me a couple of times. I gave him a call when I was ready to check out. Seems he had walked across the parking lot, across the street, to another shopping area. Could I bring the pickup over there and pick him up? Not a problem.
Except? I don’t usually carry the truck key with me. (To carry both key fobs gets bulky…) So I get halfway to the truck, toting all the above books, with my key ring in my hand and look down, and think…
Uh-oh.
I called back Wonderful Guy, himself who typically doesn’t carry the Subaru key, and told him he’s going to need to walk back across the street. And I would be waiting.
At least I had some books to leaf through while I waited.

Welcome...
...to my humble effort. Thanks for taking the time to stop by, and I hope you find something mildly interesting, slightly amusing, barely creative, or at the very least, not too terribly trite.
