Stack 'em high


Believe it or not, I am entering my third week of unemployment and I have yet to crack open a book. Hard to believe, since I normally average a book or two a week.

I have been so desperate to keep myself busy, to prove that I can still be productive, that I have barely taken any time to actually enjoy my time off. This weekend I finally scratched the last item off my Unemployment To Do list, so maybe now I can spend a little more time doing things I enjoy - like plowing through this stack of books I got today at Half Price Books.

I swore up and down I was going to consign my little box of books and get the heck out of Dodge, but alas the line was long and the clearance section was calling my name. I need more books like I need another hole in my head, but how could I resist some of my all time favorite authors and every book just $1?

At that price I'm lucky I didn't walk out with more books than I came in with!

Who could pass up all of those wonderful books for such a great price! At least you can consign your old books! (Not like my husband who has a complex with owning almost every books he's ever read!)

Congrats on getting that to do list done!
