This morning, my husband took our daughter to swimming and let me sleep in. Then we went to the local library and got library cards! I didn’t have anything in particular in mind when I walked in, but I walked out with 8 books! From embroidery to biography to sociology, the books span many subjects. I have an exciting week if reading ahead. The book I am starting with is “These Fevered Days: Ten Pivotal Moments in the Making of Emily Dickinson.”
After that, my husband surprised me with lunch at a Mexican restaurant we had never been to. I got cheese enchiladas. They were delicious! For dessert, we went to the ice cream shop.
It was such a lovely afternoon following a lovely birthday and delicious Thanksgiving.
My daughter got a couple of books, and since she and I both have new books to read, and my husband has a test to study for, I think we will have a quiet, thoughtful afternoon.
