Got my book club book at the library this month
13 months ago
Saved $15.18 by getting this month’s book club book at the library instead of buying it online as I used to do. I’ll also be getting next month’s book at the library! I haven’t been to the library very often lately, but I haven’t been buying books either. I have mostly just been passing books back and forth between friends.
My first cribbage lesson... finally!!
13 months ago
I have a friend who is recuperating from knee surgery and she’s bored out of her mind sitting at home. I went to her place this past weekend to visit, and she taught me how to play cribbage. (I also had a nice little run of beginner’s luck and won both times!) I got all the basics down, but will need some more practice to make sure I get all the specifics. Definitely a fun game. We’ll be playing again soon.
