It has been a long ass time since I posted a blog post. I am not sure what happened to my brain. Or well yeah, I do. Being stuck at home took a toll on me and my creativity. I usually like to go places such as the library, and every time I go, and I feel like I am at peace. You know how some people talk about how good they feel after church..well, that is me but at a library. And to make matters worse, the whole inter loan service was shut down and my home library is in one of the poorest places in the whole of USA. Central Applechis is not known for having the funds to really purchase books and such. The library is funded by property taxes think, and around 85 percent of the people here don’t even PAY taxes, and you can guess the lack of choices that the Library has in the actual book in the stacks. That did not really bother me because I always used the ILL system, and I 99 percent get what I want. But that was not the case this past year. Thank the Lord for Scribd and Amazon on my kindle. Then again, not a lot of people around here have that choice. I honestly never realized how much being IN a library soothes my soul, and as the months went by, and my creativity started to go downhill; also, I couldn’t think of a single thing to post. It wasn’t till I looked at what all I read last week that started the mojo of reading, and now I feel as good about blogging before the Pandemic.

Added the coal dust book to my TBR. So does your library at least have ebooks you can borrow? People here in Arkansas don’t pay property tax either. Every year in October or whenever the cutoff is, they post pages and pages and pages of delinquent names and addresses in the local paper.
The ebook is statewide.. One place for every library. Problem is that makes wait times super long. They do not publish names in the local paper though.. I cant belive some libraries do that!
