Went to pick up my new glasses, and stopped at the library on the way back. Happily, two books I've been wanting to read were there just waiting for me. The Lola Quartet by Emily St. John Mandel (which is all the rage in some circles...not sure why) and Anne Tyler's newest called The Beginner's Goodbye. Love Anne Tyler, and already am enjoying that one. Also picked up a couple of Susan Hill's---more in her Simon Serrailler mystery series. Now, if I can get everyone to leave me alone for a few days, I'll be in high cotton!
But, tomorrow have already promised to take middle daughter out to lunch, and she wants oldest daughter to go as well. The least one already had her lunch date, so will be at home with the boys. Middle daughter is sort of put out at the cost of the Justin Bieber tickets for the concert that will be here in July, so a distraction will be a good thing. Our online hunting shows that the cheapest tickets are just under a hundred bucks for the highest/farthest away located seats and the best ones on the floor are selling for....get this....just over $2,600.00 a piece. Nobody's worth that sort of money. Nobody.
