For those Spanish impaired people (myself included), I said I love to read. Not only to read but to find books. Probably one of the biggest highlights of my year is to go to the Bowling Green Library's book sale twice a year, with my dearest companion, none other than Jo!
Today began the first day of the book sale, you can bet that Jo and I were up before the dawn preparing for our big day. Which included, throwing on many layers, scarfs, funky head wear, and gloves. We arrived at 6:30, got out of our cars at 6:40 (there was already a line forming!), and stood in the cold to get our treasures! I entertained others by doing a jig and some swift jog movements, and then finally at 6:59 the doors were opened. Jo and I fled to the children's books and the non-fiction room.
Was all this worth it? Oh yes, I finished my Shel Silverstein collection, found Eric Carles, No, Davids!, and many other young adult books. I also added to my classics section. Oh and I found Miah Luther's Catechisms.If you have been to Jeremiah's and my apartment, you have seen the book collection. It's so funny Jeremiah has all of his commentaries, greek mythologies, and other hoopla! My bookshelves are filled with cookbooks, children's novels, and the classics.
I just love books, honestly, I rather have a good/interesting book than almost anything. Whether I am reading God's word or The Tale of Peter Rabbit, I really just love getting lost in a book. I hope that you do too, if you ever have dry spot of reading let me know, I can help!
Till I blog again,
Jessie
