Remembering January

Hi there.  I decided to think back on what happened in January for this post.  I kept wanting to post but not being very inspired on what to write.
However,there have been some memorable things that happened that I will attempt to remember.

Last Wednesday Evening to Friday I stayed with my Aunt Joy.  I feel we are a type of kindred spirits that can fall back into place with each other no matter how long it's been since we last saw each other.

I finished three books this month, started four.  Currently reading Birthmarked by Caragh O'Brien.  It's nice to see this progress, when I feel like I've been in a little reading slump.

A friend of mine has been in and out of the hospital.  I have this feeling this might be the moment I've been preparing myself for, where we may have to say our goodbyes soon.  His condition is life shortening and I have never had someone I knew as a friend die before.  I don't know how I should feel.

I don't know what February has in store for me but I am hopeful for the best.

Library Memorial

^I made this sign. :) A year from today, my public library closed down because of lack of funds. So we had a rally/funeral/memorial service for our library today. A group of people and kids march down our downtown area and up to the courthouse front steps. Reporters from the local news, radio and paper were there. The newspaper that was doing the story could send out a photographer, so I got to be the "photographer" I took pictures and I read a poem I wrote about the library closing. So I might appear on the local news, which is weird and cool at the same time. And here's the poem I wrote: Destruction of a Library World of Words, Their time is ending. On the shelves they sigh a bitter sigh. Why should people cry? Only words on paper Behind brick walls Why do I sigh, This humble cry? Why do the words mean so much to me? How can people not feel what I feel? About an old building that smells like old paste That binds together beautiful words In the arms of ancient paper Old

Today = A Week

Well, it's the 7th of December. So I guess this would be an exact week since my last post. Nothing much to say, I'm working a little on one of my new ideas for a story. It's an interesting tale, but I'm not comfortable telling it just now, so you'll just have to wait. ;) I'm thinking about making gifts for Christmas. Don't know what I'm going to make though.

A new book

Today I bought The Host by Stephenie Meyer . Me and my mom bought it together, it was 25% off at Fred Meyer. I'll be reading it soon, and I'll tell how I like it.
