Both G and I are pulling
our hair out. Our server-owned modem is
dead, and neither of us can get anywhere online. He’s very frustrated as he works from home,
and I am only half frustrated in small bites.
A repair person from Cox is to be here today…a fact I will believe when
I see it.
He can’t take an alternate
route, but I can.
We had a huge donation of
books, many hundreds, all at once. Most
are strongly conservative in their leanings, and many are very strongly anti
Obama. Frankly, I put them out. Everywhere, thinking every book sold was
another dollar for cancer research. There
were so many I couldn’t get them all out yesterday. The man who prices them for me didn’t get
them all priced on Tuesday either. We live in a conservative part of town. Perhaps some of them will sell.
I’ll go price and
tidy. Maybe even more will sell today.
AIDS quilt is beautiful. Such a great reminder that the struggle is not over. Good luck with the computer problem and the books.
ReplyDeleteIs that quilt part of the huge AIDS quilt project? I wish I had patience to quilt, but I cannot sit that still and do small stitches. I did needlework when I was pregnant, but that was a long time ago!
ReplyDeleteI saw the AIDS quilt early on when it was displayed at the Metrodome in Minneapolis. It was the size of a football field at that time and it was still not the entire thing. Wow.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're feeling good. I am too -- hope Cox got you back up and running again. Hugs to you both...
ReplyDeleteLove the quilt photos. I didn't vote for Obama or Bush, but I reminded David that we always like the last president better after he's out of office. I am rooting for Hillary, but very concerned about her chances.
ReplyDeleteOf course ou must put the books you don't like on display. We have freedom of speech. Besides, look at it this way, the person who bought them has changed his mind or died and his heirs didn't want the books. Either way, they were sent to the thrift shop and not burned. Thank goodness.
