Thank you all so much for your birthday wishes. I hope I didn't sound too ungrateful in my post. I am very thankful to have hot water - I just wish it didn't cost so much!
Tonight I went to an annual hospital book bazaar that is held where StellaDella attends Mother's Day Out. I didn't have my camera with me, so I had to resort to my cell phone to take my photo for today. That is why the quality of the picture is not so good. But, I did a few adjustments in Photoshop and I think it ended up being acceptable. This book bazaar is a four day event and has thousands upon thousands of books. I ended up purchasing a 1977 city directory for our town (for genealogy reference), some retro craft books, a couple of fiction books and some magic books for MonkeyBoy. Tomorrow, every book is half the marked price and on Saturday, for $2.00, it's all you can stuff in a grocery sack. I look forward to attending this event every year.
