Charity

We’ve just returned from a visit to the Fall Friends of the Library sale. It wasn’t very crowded, which is good in some ways and not so good in others. It was, however, very hot and very loud. Since neither TW or I are feeling well (thank you sassymonkey) neither of us were interested in spending the traditional hour er two hours and instead we were in and out in less than 30 minutes. Maybe we’ll go back tomorrow? Or maybe we’ll go back on 1/2 price day or 10 cent day. Surely we’ll be feeling better soon, won’t we?

You can see the books we bought in the photo (click to make it bigger). 26 books for $27 and of course the change went into the charity jar (they’re raising money this year for a children’s library that was flooded). TW bought a lot of “yellow” and I bought a good bit of “orange”.

Since I don’t seem to be able to actually read a book at the moment, the least I can do is Blog about books, right?

Thanks to The Librarian’s Rant for these great ideas about how to help the libraries damaged by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita:

• Adopt a Library!
• Send $$ for Library Aid
