CountryMouse's Refuge

Because I am wide awake, thinking about a million different things. I *should* go to bed. I bet I'd fall asleep P.D.Q.

I hope my books from amazon.com arrive tomorrow! They were shipped today (Tuesday). They are: The Art of the Handwritten Note: A Guide to Reclaiming Civilized Communication by the famed calligrapher Margaret Shepherd; and The Handcrafted Letter by Diane Maurer-Mathison. They are both hardcover books and look to be lovely to look at as well as full of useful and interesting information. ::bounce bounce:: BOOKS! Can't wait! :-)

::still thinking about all the lovely stationery I saw on the Crane's website...!::

Sleep sleep, should sleep.

(going to cross-post this to the statio_whores community)

::sigh:: My books from amazon.com didn't get here yet. :-( Well, they don't call it "snail mail" for *nothing*!! Grrr. Maybe tomorrow.

On the plus side, Cat'r has been reading to me (after a pause of several months!) from The Fellowship of The Ring. Yesterday was the scary scary Mines of Moria. I needed several stuffed animals to grab onto while he was reading this! Much more tense and ominous than the Reader's Digest version (aka the movie). Today the company has entered Lothlorien. So lovely, but I started to fall asleep. :-P When Cat'r reads to me, I am usually ensconced under the covers, propped up with pillows, surrounded by stuffed animals. :-D Sometimes that proves almost tooooo soporific. :-P
