Some of you already know that...you faithful followers you! It was a rather rainy day...another one... and it seemed to me a good day for reading a bit. Bringing up reading...I ordered a Kindle. Kindle Wireless Reading Device (6" Display, Global Wireless, Latest Generation). I have been wanting one for quite some time but they were in the $400 range and this frugal woman could not bring herself to spend that kind of money. Now the price has dropped considerably as they are less than half what they used to be. My Kindle is on the way to me as we speak and I am excited about it. They also have Kindle for PC. It is a free download and if you do not mind sitting at your computer for hours on end to read a book there would be no reason to purchase a Kindle but I want the mobility of it. Free Kindle Books and How to Find Them (revised 11/09) I downloaded Kindle for PC on our computers sometime back and have a few books on it. One of the things I like is that Butch and I can read the same book at the same time. We can have any books we purchase on both computers. This syncing feature is very handy. I can now also have 1500 books in the RV at one time I am sure I will be telling you more about it when I have it in my hot little hand. I didn't intend to go there when I started writing this morning but that often happens.
I also finished my first bracelet yesterday. I have to have Linda teach me about putting a clasp on it for the final touches. I am anxious to start on the next one. They are much fun to do. They are lightweight and drape well on your wrist.
I have many color combos swimming in my head for the next few I plan to do. I am also keeping my hand in on Swedish weaving. Beading makes for a nice switch-off hobby and takes up virtually no room in the MoHo. I think I have some women in my family who will be very happy I took to this hobby. wink, wink.
Today I thought about leading you to Howard's journal and taking another day off. After all we are in the same place and doing many of the same things and he writes about it so very well. But things evolved as they should and in a pleasant way so now you can go read RV-Dreams Journal and enjoy it as much as I did.
