I bought a huge bag of books today. I went to Border's to buy some books for homeschooling, since it was Educator Appreciation Day. They really should call it Visa Appreciation Day! 
I loved that they actually made up gift bags for us, too. Mine had a bunch of book lists for various ages, a poster, a bag of flavoured coffee, and a bunch of bookmarks. I love Borders!  |

Borders is closing several stores, according to today's Business section.

Oh no! I use amazon a lot, but there's nothing like going to a real bookstore, touching the books, reading the first few pages...I hope they are only closing a few.  |

Closing stores, taking their online business back from Amazon, and ditching a whole MESS of Waldenbooks stores.
I spent most of the day laying on my back. And not in a good way.  |

Poor Pippa!
I finished up some bridesmaids jewelry for delivery today (Saturday) in the evening. Spent the afternoon in the docs office trying to figure out why I'm dizzy. No idea. Blood pressure's fine, ears are fine, they took blood, but I was in too late to get it read before the end of the day.
Today I'll be delivering jewelry, running a couple of errands and then I'm free. Don't know what I'll do...want to get some things worked up for next wknd's show.
Oh, and I HAVE to get those stinking taxes done this weekend. Keep forgetting (on purpose probably) to do them.

They've closed most-if not all the Waldenbooks locally. I didn't realized Borders owned Waldenbooks!(Sort of like the whole Hotels.com/Expedia.com/Travelocity.com stuff-all the same company)
I love Amazon I can find a lot of books used thru them that I have trouble finding elsewhere, but I love a real shop more so the used ones . I guess growing up and spending every other weekend in a used bookstore does soemthing to your brain

I worked yesterday. Only till 6 - woo hoo! Short day!
Went home. Brian and I had dinner, rented some movies and went to bed to watch them, but the dvd player decided it wants to make a horrible sound, so no movies. I fell asleep during Blue Collar Comedy Tour.
Today I went to the gym, should be cleaning - tonight we have a concert at Shack in the Back. |

This is what I've been doing over the last week and yesterday was the day. I have been wanting my picture with Carrie and last night was the night.  |

Well, that's Carrie Underwood in the poster behind Slick, Tracy and two chefs, I believe.
