don’t you hate used bookstores?

Yea. Me either.

Good night! There is so much to choose from at this particular store!  I always have to set a budget, spend too much time perusing, and then narrow down our selection. This time, I went in with John Senior’s list of books.  Of course, while looking for those I caught sight of a few other books that just looked good. Or that we had in e-book format but not in hardcover.  I did leave with a few books from the original wish list.  Namely, Tarzan.  Have you read it? I’m not sure I can bring myself to move it closer to the top of the pile. But I’m going to give it my best.

Anyway, after purging from the wish stack, I still left the store over budget. But it wasn’t because of that Anne Pelowski book, Betsy’s Up and Down Year, that book was only 50 cents on the clearance table!

No one needs to eat this week anyway. Right?

 

(Gosh! I’m kidding! I feed my kids good, wholesome, real food that I cooked myself and that, generally speaking, doesn’t come out of a box! We have wiggle room for me to be able to spend a little bit more than I planned on books.)
