Yesterday was the Friends of the Library booksale. Being the it was bag day (2 bags for $5. All the books you can shove in there. Wheeee!), I dragged my kids across town to see what we could find. I can never resist cheap books, and being that I am a master bag-stuffer, I know I'll get my money's worth. (Gosh, that makes me sound cheap.)

Anyway, I found out that they sell books by the box. You can go into their warehouse, point to a certain genre, pay $2 or $3 (depending on the size of box you want), and they will load them up in your car. You don't get to pick and choose what you get in these boxes, but who cares? Surprises are fun, right?

Being that my kids don't really want to look through rows and rows of books, I thought I'd get a few boxes of elementary fiction. I paid for my 4 LARGE boxes, and headed out to collect them. When I got there, I was informed that they were out of the large, so they'd double up on the small. No problem, right? Well, "small" wasn't very small at all. They hold 50+ books each. Now I have 9 "small" boxes of paperbacks.

After unloading boxes, sifting through each one, and then stacking them all up again, I've managed to hurt my right arm. My wrist, elbow, and shoulder are all in a huge amount of pain. I'm going to the doctor today to see if I've fractured my wrist... AGAIN. (It's never going to heal at this point.) I wanted to let everyone know that I will still be here uploading like a mad woman, but maybe not quite as much as I had been recently. I can only sit here for so long before I need to take something for the pain and rest the arm a bit.

Note to self: Next time bring the husband so he can unload boxes.
