I love Wednesdays.
All those wonderful books to triage and shelve. Unfortunately yesterday, there weren’t a lot of books. We did have some really good children’s books
tho badly worn. Instead of the $125.00
they would have been priced at if they were in very good condition, I put
$15.00 on them. I hope they find a home
for they are charming.
Every news source in town is talking Chargers, and one even
has changed their set colors to blue and gold.
The new library is lit up at night in blue and gold. Flags fly from many houses. Clip on flags flap from many more cars. T shirts abound, and stickers are stuck. Acres of new TV’s were bought for this team
that’s a 10 point underdog to win the upcoming game. Where baseball used to be the number one
sport in America, now football is king, and the Chargers are number one in San
Diego.
It is still slightly awkward doing the journal from the
bedroom. The first time I did it,
everything worked easily. This time, the
computer couldn’t find the network and it wasn’t online. I know, complaints get me nowhere. I was just grateful G stuck around until
everything was operational.
Daughter Margot is coming down for the morning. She will go through the clothes, and she will
take away all the bears that block the hall.
I found here a desk at work that might do for her two computers….Zoe has
one too. It’s awfully big, and it won’t
fit on or in the back of the truck. We
will see what she says when she get’s here.
I’m so looking forward to the time together.

+ More: She fit most of my discarded clothes. They are gone. What’s left I took to the Discovery
shop. She didn’t like the desk….too
big. I thought so too. We both loved the mountain of new plus sized
things that had come in. She found one
shirt she loved, and I found a brand new, Land’s End, dark rose colored, velvet
blazer. It fits perfectly. I bought both. We left the store laughing. I went to the bank where I discovered that
our senior moments were real. No passports
in the lock box. The cleaners were
closed too. I took my depression home to
discover G at the top of the stairs waving the envelope containing the
passports.
All is now right with the world.
I am so glad you are the catalyst that helps good books find new homes. You rock!

ReplyDeleteYour comments are wonky today. Obviously. LOL!
ReplyDeleteProfessional football with all its tax breaks and money sumps and brain concussions is not something I am interested in...but it does keep kids off the street and is better than throwing people to the lions as they used to do for entertainment. I DID watch one game this year for nostalgia, though. My daughter throws out tons of kids books every year and it breaks my librarian heart!
ReplyDeleteI am looking forward to the Super Bowl. Hubby predicts Seattle vs. Denver.
ReplyDeleteSo a senior moment split between two equals half a senior moment each.
ReplyDeleteYou two have the same smile. Lovely photo.
ReplyDeleteA great day. Nice when your daughter can use your clothes. Too bad about the desk. I need a new desk too, but want one of those mod things that hold computers and other stuff. I may get to Franklin and Winston yet. Must be a good book to hod your interest this long. Dianne
ReplyDeleteGo Seahawks!!
ReplyDeleteI love that photo!
ReplyDeleteHow good that your daughter could take your discarded clothes. And that you both found bargains at the thrift shop.
I smiled in sympathy at your senior moments re the passports. As we get older, I swear there are gremlins who come in and temporarily remove some of our possessions! I'm so glad those passports turned up!
Awwww... Mage. That is such a sweet photo of you and your daughter. You're lucky your dad will wear your clothes. My daughter is so fussy. I will wear some of hers, but she won't wear mine.
ReplyDeleteHappy for your time with Margot and balance on the confusion! Those matching smiles sure brightened my day.
ReplyDeleteGlad it all ended happily.
ReplyDeleteIt must be fun to have a daughter.
