Books……..

Tuesday, October 20th, 2009

Books, there are so many things you can find in them.. You can learn to cook, maybe you want to be like Paula Dean, or Rachel Ray.  Then maybe you want to learn to decorate like Nate, or the design team from Extreme Makeover…Or maybe you want to learn all of it from Martha Stewart..

Books can take you far look at all the books Oprah has had us read over the years…There is so much to find in books… You can learn to read… You can learn your ABC’s and sounds.  Books can teach you games… How to play fair…

There are romance books by authors, Debbie Macomber, Robyn Carr, Joan Johnston, Carlly Philips, and so many more. Mystery and suspense is a good one that everyone loves to read, by authors John Grisham, Brenda Novak, John Finder,Ted Bell, Dan Brown. Then there is fantasy written by Stephen King, Christine Feehan just to name a couple…

Books can be found in lots of places, Big bookstores like Borders, or Barns and Noble, mom and pop stores like Gallery West in Gainsville, Second Edition in Hollywood, Florida these are just two that I know about that sell new and used books. On line stores there are so many you can find the best one that I can tell you about is mine of course www.readerwave.ecrater.com  Then there is www.acread.ecrater.com  there are so many more.. You can find anything you are looking for some where.. You just have to look.. Places you don’t expect to think about looking second hand store, Salvation Army store, grocery store, Walmart is a big seller of books they get allot of the newest paperback on the best seller list..I bought 9 myself this month..

Books can take you lots of places, I have visited Alaska, in romance novels, this is some place I would really like to go some day. I have read of the Racing at Saratoga, I have read of Leaves changing in Vermont, I have read about Presidents and such in books I read in grade school from my school library, Library’s are free you can do so many things there.. whether its your school or public library… Our library has books, on tape, books in large print and just books, there are new hard cover books, there are soft paperback books, Our library even has books for sale that people donate or are taken out of the library for some reason.They even have a place to learn English so there is no reason not to read.My hats off to the person learning a new language. Reading is so much fun… you can read for fun as I do, for the pleasure it brings you… you can read your local newspaper to find out about whats happening in your town and areas around you as my husband does… Just Read….

Second writing one place you can find books I did not mention. Some people sell at Flee Markets, it might be with the other things they are selling they set out a few books they have read. Or Like I do I have whole boxes of just books that is what I offer for sale at the Flee Market.. When I go back in November will be offering new and used… Have been taking apart my book room here at home as right now I am doing better at Flee Market than on line… Yard Sales are another great way to get rid of and buy books… Here locally we go on Friday and Saturdays… When Flee Market is open I go on Fridays so I miss some great sales on Saturdays… Have been to some great ones while its closed

Help

Monday, October 19th, 2009

I started writing here and hubby came in and changed my whole train of thought… Some days I don’t get dressed as I don’t want to do anything but be around the house whether I am on the computer, reading a book or crocheting.. I have just taken that back up recently.. I am working on simple presents for holidays.. I may get them done and I may not.. I am going in two directions I have picked up simple gifts as well so that I can take them back if I need to… or want to.. I have been asking my Mom for help and have not cringed when she offers with out me asking… This has been our problem in the past to much of the wrong kind of what she calls  help, and I would call butting in…(or what they might(family)call corrective criticism

Help is a strange word it can be what it is help or it can be put in a tone of voice as Criticism… This is the kind of help I have always gotten from all my relatives mostly the older ones… and it was passed down to my parents so this is what I knew as a child and passed it down at my kids.. Luckily they did not pass it on down… The cycle was broken some how… My husband cringes when I talk back at my mother instead of to her… But this is how I was raised.. its hard to brake the cycle.. I did not live by my Mother for the first 10 yrs of my present marriage and when my Mother came to live with us after my step father died, all this old stuff came right back into my life… Its hard on him and he is great and lets us get it out… then he cringes…

So my asking for help from my Mother is strange for me..

I read alot.. we just had family here this weekend and it was great.. when they come they go into my store and pick out books that they want to take home.. So I have taken a few books off my store … Its fun to talk over series that we both like.. I have to mention to her about Virgin River by Rybon Carr its my favorite lately… and maybe because it good and maybe because she gives us so many to read in one year… That does not mean I love Cedar Cove by Debbie Macomber any less… You can buy both these authors  and many other at www.readerwave.ecrater.com

Books

Friday, August 14th, 2009

Books are my passion, reading, selling, showing. Lately I have been trying to widen my scope on what to read.. I use to read just romance.. I now try to put in some suspense, history,christian. Right now I am reading a Harlequin Christmas story… Seasonal seems to bring my mood up and I read them all year long… When ever I run across one.  I have read some mystery and like them…

I try to have a wide selection of books in my store… Next week I will begin telling you about the different books I have for you to look at…
