This is why I'm not keen on Christmas Songs...

I was doing up my trousers but got distracted singing along to Disney songs...

And now I’ve zippered me doo-dah!

Only Book People understand this... the closest I can come to a comparison is to say that seeing my books sorted & arranged on my bookshelves gives me the same joy & engagement that art lovers feel about the art in their homes.

I FEEL what you're going through. I've got a Kindle, and now more than 700+ books on Audible.

BUT IT'S NOT THE SAME!

Books are better than art, because we can touch them, turn their pages & remember...

Damn, I love Librarians !

Libraries Offer Music Streaming Services That Really Support Local Musicians

Over a dozen public libraries in the U.S. and Canada have begun offering their own music streaming services to patrons, with the goal of boosting artists and local music scenes. The services are region-specific, and offer local artists non-exclusive licenses to make their albums available to the community.

Last week I traveled to the home of a deceased person and unlocked their computer for the executor of the estate. I exported the email contacts, located financial records, etc.

The deceased was a man who lived alone and died alone. One thing in particular brought home the fragility of life. He was using his computer at 3:19 pm. Shortly after that he went into medical distress, and never touched his computer again.

Let people know you love them.
Allow yourself to be loved.
Stay connected.

^^ 100% financial disclosure should be a law before anyone is qualified to run for President.

Background and national security checks too, for that matter.

New reporting from CNN indicates that former Trump “ethics lawyer” Stefan Passantino told his client Cassidy Hutchinson to say that she did not recall key details from January 6th when she did recall. This is witness tampering and this lawyer must face prosecution and disbarment.
