Book Face



We putter our way along into the holidays.  It’s been so many years since I planned a party that I’m still dithering over the foods.  Even simple foods seem beyond my imagination, tho I have the drinks well in hand. The house is done.  There are still a few gifts to wrap.  I can do that. 

We did the cards together last night, and it was as if the Great Geezer ate a lemon.  By the time we were done, his welts were raised and red.  Poor guy needs yoga and meditation or he won’t recover from this ugly disease.

I had to laugh at myself yesterday too.  The mountain of books in the back room at the store had grown exponentially, and a late starting Joan finally got them priced after a great struggle.  I approached the boss with what must have been a pathetic look.

She barely glanced my way and said as she retreated, “No you can’t have any more shelves for your books.  You can have a book sale.”

Not only must I wear my heart on my sleeve, I must wear books on my face.
