Feeling virtuous

A few things I weeded out this weekend:

• Billy Graham's Angels
• An RD collection of condensed books
• Brokaw's Greatest Generation all to Mom
• 501 Spanish Verbs to Erin if she wants it.

Of course this does not really match the amount of books that manage to find their way IN through the front door, but I am trying to stave off the need for more shelfspace.

R & I ended up at Barnes and Noble for a spell, and I did not come away with anything from there either.

I have pulled out Heart of the Country - it has sat unread on my shelf for years - maybe deservedly so, but I will find out. In the meantime, I am rereading all of the Catherine LeVendeur books so I can read the last two I have never read.

I want to try my hand at papermaking sometime so my two of my last purchases have included books on the subject -on sale of course. I found a blender stuck in a drawer in the basement which will help to further the cause.

A note- on my last order from bookcloseouts.com the copy of 101 Poems that may save your life had 16 blank pages (only 86 poems not 101!). They graciously sent me a replacement at no charge.
