Hot and humid weather is back, staying inside and reading during the day. Evening is for watching the prime time Olympic coverage. I get to see the important stuff without having to spend super lots of time. Plus I only have to actually watch closely what I want. Plus if I really want to see a specific event I can watch it online, which is what I have done with some of the equestrian events.

Read to Death at the Lakeside Library another cozy mystery at the library. Rain has started a small book club, first book discussed Agatha Christies' Sparkling Cyanide. Later one of the members is found dead, poisoned in fact. Who done it and why?
For me it is getting more yarn, which I did this past week. Good sales means I buy.
I did quit my job, eight years ago. Retirement means reading!
I use my local library a lot, I check out the value of books more than I pay in property taxes! Little free libraries are good too. Just read!
Happy Reading.
Just read! is a great motto.
ReplyDeleteWas at my local library yesterday, in person, and of course I use the apps like crazy to borrow and reserve audiobooks.
there was a little library in the lobby of the place I retired from and it always needed
ReplyDeletereading materials ‼️every now and then I’ll spot another around town. neat idea
whoever thought of it 🐟😺💙
Yes, the library is free, and air conditioned.
ReplyDeleteI can't retire yet, I still like to eat. Someday maybe, then I will read all I want.
We love both the little and big free libraries. Our close one is okay, but yesterday we went a few towns over to a bigger, better one, and came home with a nice stack. I love the job quitting one, especially as we've been talking more and more about at least partial retirement lately.
ReplyDeleteI used to read books constantly. Then the internet happened. I still read, but more informational stuff (and seriously professional trustable information) plus 2 decent discussion forums) online. But I still have my home-made angled tabletop book stand and am planning to reread 'The Ancestor's Tale" by Richard Dawkins and Yan Wong.
