Daily Notes- Tuesday March 8th- Blustery Winds. Blowing Winter Away? Not Really.


Another mouse.  I have quite a few of these charming mice drawings.  From the Something blog in the sidebar. She is a retired illustrator/creative art director and enjoys sharing great illustration art with her blog readers.

I did not make soup.  I did laundry- changing the bedsheets.  And I didn't pack as much in the washer so it sounded quite happy - the washer- and well, lesson learned.  I have one more load for this week.

Bet Me.  Well, I noticed the copy of the book was newer. A replacement. And then at the end I noticed the book ended slightly differently.  So, it would seem that newer additions have some things removed and somethings tightened up?  New editing.  And most of the changes were in the last 20 or 30 pages.  Not sure it was necessary but.....it certainly sped things along.

Today I am reading another older book.  My Library has a section of display space that they use in imaginative ways.  Valentine Books were Red & Pink Book Jacket books- mostly romances on a special shelf.  There is also a Purple section this month as one staffer is in love with purple.  I found the old book I am reading on the purple shelf as it's cover is purple. Another shelf has Green Jacket books and most relate to Irish themes.  Other times the books are by theme or subject and not color of the jacket.

A long time ago I found a delightful book on the Green shelf and didn't write it in the Book Journal (I think this book is why I now have a book journal).  When they have green books I always check to see if the one I read is there. Lost Books.  Such a sad thing for someone who enjoys reading a certain book when feeling a certain way.  

Time for breakfast. sigh......and the newspaper.  Nothing good there.

Diane I have all the books written down and in order but haven't started looking for them as yet.
