Walk in the rain

29 Replies

Have you ever seen anything so beautiful, BOOKS ON SALE.This is where we ended up, a 2 story bookstore who’s having a big sale, we have been here for 3 hours, the rain won’t stop and I don’t want to leave yet anyway. They have a little Starbucks on the second floor and me and spidey have found a comfortable couch while I go through as many books as my eyes can look through before they start to hurt. I left my depression and anxiety at the door I’ll pick them up on the way out but this right here is my happy little place.

Safe haven

Sue and I visited our local, smaller Barns & Noble bookstore the day before yesterday. Though we were looking for some board games to play, we both love books. It was almost 2 hours before we left and that was because we were really, really hungry! Enjoy yourself, D. There are only a small percentage of us who enjoy non-computerized books anymore. Revel in the fact that you are one them! Sue and I both love the rain too! We like to stand and watch it rain together until we're forced to sit down because we're tired. What an awesome, young lady you are . Sue thinks so too! We'll both pray you that life keeps you that way, D!

They had a lot of puzzles too I got some, maybe they will help keep my brain busy, plus everything was on sale lol sale is my favorite word. And I agree people don’t really read anymore either I love the new book smell when you open up the pages. Tell Sue I said hi I haven’t seen her beautiful pics in a while

She just put one out here of a nice fern. Her message with it was awesome. Sadly the 2 of mostly read off our computers now. I also write a lot on my computer too. A lot of pretty poems and such. One of my more recent ones, 'If Dreams Had Wings', was liked by everyone that read it. It's in music lyric format but is quite pretty. Hope you're having an awesome day, friend!

Is your dog a therapy dog? I wish could bring my dog everywhere. This sounds lovely. My work is doing a book library where we bring in books to donate and you can them out. I also ordered a new book today
