The books on my bedside table have increased by three since Wednesday. My daughter and I visited a small Mom and Pop Book Store over in Carrollwood on Wednesday. Since I know myself better than I know myself, I probably should have known better...
...but anyways, the name of this above average spot is The Book Swap of Carrollwood, and it really is just that, a book swap sort of store. The trade-in policy is fair, but the store is very clean and the establishment's associates are very helpful and freindly.
My bedside table's population has increased by three. Lord, I know! There was once a time when I was just about 100% read in my Lodge. Now, I think I will have to schedule these around the completions of the five books plus my Day-To-Day meditations I presently have my eye orbs in. AND, with the celebration of my birth approaching - I have a wonderful reasonableness to believe that "Custer Died For My Sins", will soon be here. Which, I do suppose will change everything I am enjoying and reading presently. My Spirit's are lonely for the thoughts and words of Crazy Horse, Sitting Bull, Red Cloud amongst other's, who participated with the dispatching of the blond fool and the fools who followed him...
...anyways...
...the three new titles are:
1. Uncle Tom's Cabin, by Ms. Harriet Beecher Stowe.
2. Adventures Of Huckleberry Finn, by Mr. Mark Twain.
(Both of the above were required reading when I was in grade school. Feels like a reunion in my child with-in's heart. Hell, now that I remember, both were made into motion pictures and would be televised at least once a year in my youth. Oh, what a memory!)
3. Common Sense, Rights Of Man, And Other Essential Writings of Thomas Paine, by Mr. Thomas Paine.
I would love to find a company that would provide me the opportunity to proof read books prior to mass printing. Reads to be fun to me.
Note: Unless there should be a new release pertaining to The Cherokee Peoples and or The Eastern Band Of The Cherokee Nation or the Leaders I spoke of earlier, a mandate has been established to complete the books I am presently involved with...
...um, that sounds so mean! But then, what can you do when you live in a shoe?
peace and love,
Mario

ReplyDeleteThe prices of the books are very reasonable. Some of the books are worn but most are in tip-top condition.
With the closing of Borders and Waldens Bookstore, my community was with-out book store. Until now.
