use the library instead of buying books (read all 3 entries…)
Challenge officially over 4 days ago

and I’ve managed not to buy any books. I have started going to the library about once a week. And I’ve borrowed books from friends, coworkers, random strangers off the street (OK not that last one, least not yet). I’m still going to keep this as a goal a while longer as I still need to get more comfortable actually browsing at the library.

Step 1: Fix Sewing Machine 1 week ago

Or get a new one. The one I have now is 40 or 50 years old, and was “injured” in a move. Since I don’t feel like sewing my skirt by hand, looks like I’ll be carting it to a repair shop for diagnosis.

Old-fashioned doorknobs 1 week ago

A la the talking doorknob in “Alice in Wonderland”, my current apartment in chockful of them. And every apartment I’ve lived in since college has had at least one. The little bit of whimsicalness makes me smile when I see it.
