Discovered that the Salvation Army (Melbourne) is not open on Sunday, but Goodwill is. Didn't find anything exciting to wear---bunch of skinny little sundresses, phooey!---but I snagged a couple books, including "The Eyre Affair", which I've been meaning to read. Also found a really nice small carpetbag; it's tapestry with a pattern of old-fashioned suitcase labels. Totally worth $4.99.
I've been getting into a book I snagged from the library, "For the Love of Mike" by Rhys Bowen. (Plucky young Irish woman attempts a career as a private investigator in turn of the century New York.) Didn't find any of those at Goodwill, but have checked eBay and discovered that there are quite a few more in the series, which gives me something to aspire to.
Was in Publix and "Still the One" came on the Muzak...whihc made me think of Susie---it was the song she and T danced to as their first dance at their wedding. *sigh*
