Fun Weekend ahead...

November 13th, 2010 at 02:59 am

The girls and I will leave at 6am for our mega-marathon-shopping trip to the big city tomorrow! We are going for only one night this year...but the girls have put us on a very tight, busy schedule to ensure we hit all of their favorite spots. Sounds like we will also be taking an underground tour of the city. Its about a 4-5 hour drive each way, so I am taking school books to get in some serious study time. Should be a great weekend!

I have been contemplating buying a Kindle for quite a while. Anyone who has followed my blog knows that I am just not too prompt at returning library books...so I tend to always be paying fees. (no excuse) When we go on getaways, I find myself packing several books at a time cause I never know what I will be in the mood to read...

SO...I bought the Kindle this week. I knew there were free books to be had on Amazaon, but I didnt realize the options that would be available, as well as the games, etc. I am sure enjoying it so far..and looking forward to having it on the trip this weekend!

My new cat is sick. They warned me at the shelter that it was a possibility...and sure enough, within one day of having him, he started sneezing pretty badly. I received a free vet visit when I got him, so it was only $6 for the antibiotics. Harley and I are getting along very well. He definately is a joy to have around. Smile

Hope everyone is doing great. Happy Friday...Life is good!

    Check out the guttenberg project. Tons of free ebooks - out of copyright. I don't know if they work with the Kindle though. Hope you have fun with the girls. Smile

    Second the gutenberg project if the Kindle can read straightforward text (.txt) files, or there is some sort of converter program. I've read tens of classic books from the site on my pda that way.

    Best of luck with the kitty and the big time shopping trip. Don't let the girls take you for a ride. Big Grin

    That's good to know - we earned a free Kindle and am not really interested in buying a lot for it. (Not even sure if we will keep it - may sell it). But if there are a lot of free options... (We are still waiting for ours to arrive - a few weeks probably).
