My first day of freedom!

I woke up pretty early and took Blakely for a walk. Then I was already itching to read something. So I packed Blakely in my car (it is a treat for her to ride in the car) and went to the public library. I hadn't been going, because I thought I had a large fine. But when I looked it up online last night I realized it was only $3.00. I got there around 9 and could see people waiting outside. I looked at the hours and realized that they don't open until 9:30.

I couldn't imagine waiting 30 minutes in my car with NOTHING to do, and I didn't exactly look presentable to run into the coffee shop or any other place downtown, so I drove through Henderson's for a breakfast sandwich for me and Blakely girl. :) Any drive through you go to in our town has doggy treats that they give out when they see your pet with you in your car. I love that!

I got back to the library about 9:20 and apparently, it is the place to be, a huge crowd had gathered outside the doors and lots were waiting in their cars. At 9:30 the doors opened and I went on a hunt to find some summer reading.

I am very pleased with the outcome!


I am still hunting a few more books by Patti Callahan Henry, the newest book by Emily Giffin, Heart of the Matter, and I need to read the rest of Remember Me? by Sophie Kinsella. Dorothea Benton Frank (Lowcountry Summer) and Karen Kingsbury (Take 4) both have new books out in June too!

Matt and I are going to order in chips and salsa and watch the American Idol finale and the movie, Valentine's Day tonight! I can't wait for him to get home!!! For now, I'll be unloading the dishwasher and sorting laundry!
