*cracks up* Ping pong net. Nice.
Goodness me, I think I need to dust off my account in here. Hi, everyone!

Nice to see such dust sent a-flying.

I'm getting rather excited about the Read-A-Thon. Time to start assembling the list of things to read! And time to start getting other projects done and out of the way so they won't interfere.
Anyone else have a rather devastating to-do list?

Absolutely. I was up rather late on Saturday because I waited until that evening to plan a Sunday School lesson for church and make a birthday present and scavenger hunt for my little brother, both of which had to be ready by the next morning.
Today I stayed in bed reading half the afternoon instead of getting up and doing something useful. Now I feel terrible. Finishing a good book isn't supposed to make one feel guilty!

The sweetest crime you could ever commit, I suppose.

Hallo, Pip! Welcome back!
And hello, all! *comes sneaking in* I've been absent a long time. *hangs head*Posted 1 year ago # -
I had such a wonderful time last night going through our shelves getting rid of abridged books. (We actually have a bunch, since my grandmother gives them to my brother. Blech!)
I mean, who needs an abridged version of The Secret Garden anyway? The original is not that difficult, for crying out loud! And what about Jekyll and Hyde or Sleepy Hollow? Those are frightening stories for a younger reader!
Besides that, I discovered we actually had multiple abridged copies of some books. As if one wasn't bad enough!
The only ones we kept were like Ivanhoe and Charles Dickens ones, because those are more difficult reading in the original version, so I don't see some of my siblings ever reading them. And they have such good stories, it would be a shame for them to miss out.Posted 1 year ago # -
We're supposed to get a thunderstorm here today! Yay! Maybe I can read during it.
Anyone else like thunderstorms in the daytime?Posted 1 year ago # -
Thunderstorms in the daytime... NO! Then I can't go outside and go to the library for more books.

No, biking in the rain is bad.

Ooh, biking to the library sounds cool. I can't do that where I live. I can walk, though it's not very safe and I'm liable to get hit by a car. Not that that ever stops me.
Of course, then I have to carry my books. I have always found it simply astonishing how much books can weigh. I mean, they're only paper!

There's a nice bike path near me that goes straight to the library, for all practical purposes. Then I just wear a backpack and go to and fro.

It would probably take me forty five minutes to bike to our library. In short, it wouldn't work out so well. =P
I'm waiting for a good friend to stop by and drop off a new sewing machine. =)Posted 1 year ago # -
