I have random thoughts when I am trying to get to sleep so I can get up early the next morning. Of course it turns into a long, drawn out random conversation in my head, I get wide awake and it takes an hour to get to sleep, so I am sleep deprived and dragging the next day. I can get myself all worked up about navel lint if I need to get to sleep early, lol.

Why do we hold onto books we've already read? I always think "Well, maybe I'll read it again someday…" and they sit next to the books I'm always planning to read but never get to...

Some neighborhoods are doing something called the book box. They attach another mailbox type device, and place unwanted books. People come by, and if they are interested can pick it up. Some folks leave another book behind. Also our neighborhood has one big book sale every year. It can be in someones Garage. I pass books back and forth in my family too. There is one however I do re-read, It is called the Journeyer by Gary Jenninngs. I never read a book 4 times before! All my family members have read it, and currently the hard bound is in Delaware with a friend. It is one rousing adventure of Marco Polo and the travels along the silk road. Love books you get glued to. Happy reading Debbie, keep all of the ones you want to read! ginnie

Ginnie- I think the book box idea is called, "The Littlest Library." We have one that is on my way to the main street of our neighborhood. It very interesting to see what people leave. Both DH2B and I have found books there and we "feed" it frequently. CD's are a new feature.

There is a library a few hundred feet away but the LL catches people that might not go to the library.

We have Unitarian, Episcopal and Babptist sales that include books and the two libraries on each end of the neighborhood have a sale each. Also, there are many yard sales that include books. Some people just put books out front w a "Free" sign on weekends. It is said that every book changes hands in the area at least once every summer.

Our local library has an annual book sale. They sell, books, CDs, DVDs, anything that is in their library it goes in the sale. It's one of the biggest events here. Moms, homeschoolers, or just avid readers can get books at almost garage sale prices. It's held in one of our malls that doens't have that many retailers in it anymore, mainly doctors offices and a lot of walkers.

Glad other neighborhoods are doing this book thing. There is nothing better in my opinion than a good book you can get lost in. Have a good day to all. ginnie

my random thought of the morning- Who in this house can I get to clean the litter box? I just plain don't want to do it...

DH2B changes the cat litter! I knew he was a keeper! He also cooks and irons. I know, what is "irons?" I don't iron anything but sometimes he decides that something of mine would be better if he pressed it w his shirts. I don't mind.

Gotta love him.

That brings up my random thought. If cats are so doggone (pun) smart,
then why can't they clean their own litter-huh?
