I had 58 books to donate when I left yesterday. We went to the old booth. I have a 1/2 off sale going til the end of the month. We removed some books and a bookcase, added 16 new books, and took out s0me of the oldest books.
We stopped at a book donation bin on the way home and donated the 58 + most of the books I’d pulled. (I’ll have real numbers for later today, the books are all inventoried and will be written off.)
Last night as a sort of experiment, I didn’t have wine after dinner. At 2 a.m., when I still couldn’t sleep, I drank the last of the bottle (about 1/3 of a glass) and slept. Woke up late, about 20 minutes ago, just when I should have been trundling out the door! (Sorry Linda!)
During last night’s insomnia, I added 3 books to the dump bin.
Sounds like much progress is being made – that’s a good thing! Once in a while I have a Lemoncello after dinner, want to try making it myself! So good!
I don’t think I want to make port! But it’s the only wine I really like. We learned a while ago how to buy pretty good stuff, for less than “vintage” years, so that’s what we do.
I don’t know if I’ve ever had lemoncello?
A neighbor made some Kaluha for a Christmas a few years back. They gave us a bottle when we gave them their Christmas bread. It went bad, so we tossed it. I’m not sure what she did, but I wasn’t going to ask!
I updated the tally for the end of March. Without any kind of confidence in this being complete, it’s all I have, so I’m going with it. Here’s the numbers:
old 9247 76.6% remaining 2831 items out
new 9188 76.0% remaining 2890 items out
Not too bad, 110 off at the end of the month and I started 2 weeks behind!
