glorycloud's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- the Black Act It is 1:07 PM Saturday afternoon here in Western Michigan. It is 70 degrees and partly cloudy. I got up this morning around 5:50 AM. When I got up Carol was getting ready to face another day. Carol was meeting a friend for breakfast this morning around 7:30 AM. I left the house around 8:45 AM to visit The Warehouse used books store in Fennville MI. When I was driving through the country to Fennville there was fog all around me. It was like the old days when I use to drive to work through fog. Below is a list of the used books I bought today. I came home after Fennville to eat lunch and then go to Zeeland to buy bird food/sunflower seeds and to fill up my car with gasoline. So has gone my day. I feel like I have not woken up yet. I will close to face the rest of this day. Tomorrow will be a Sunday. The mail just came/a bunch of junk mail. I am expecting two books to arrive in the mail someday. Carol is watching college football as I write out these words.
