Sticking to my word

Friday was a productive, but busy day! We started the day by trekking to two local used bookstores with a box and two bags of books to sell. We left the first used bookstore with two 'new' books that we purchased with our $60 credit. With one bag of books left, we headed to the next store. They took several books, traded those for a $20 credit/book and left that store with a mere 9 books. 9 books!!! I started with about 75 books and three days later, they had almost all found new homes. I signed up for paper back swap. I have a few books listed and will add more as new books come in. In the picture above, the top three books are posted on paperbackswap.com and the bottom three are 'new'. Considering that we have a family list of 'wants' on the swap site and my list has 3 books while a certain other person's list consists of 150 books, it's not too bad of a deal. I'll be the one who wins out space wise!/p> I'll be posting a follow up post to yesterday's magazine post but it will focus on the small handful of magazines that I adore and why I pour over them. Trekking to Zinnia www.Zinnia.biz to teach Saturday. Looking forward to it! I'll try to post a picture or two from the store as it's all decked out for Valentine's Day. Whatever you do, wherever you are, have a great weekend! Make some art and be good to yourself!
