Boy, this feels good! Second day of my new yearly cycle and I am on a roll! This morning, after I "allowed" my Rog and hour or two of playing on his laptop, we got busy, cleaned out old canned goods in a bottom, never-used kitchen cupboard and moved all of the small cans of paint to it. They had been on the kitchen counter and on top of the fridge. Lots of clutter!

THEN, since i had him going, I grabbed ROg, we went into my office, went through the rolling bookcart (what did you call them, Maggie, a truck?) and he helped me decided on which books to give to the library, which to research more to sell, and which to keep. We now have three boxes of books out in the car to go the library sale.

I love the things I find in books. There was an envelope addressed to Mrs. Mary E. Epolito in New London, CT, from the Dept. of Motor Vehicles. A return, addressed envelope was inside, along with a card printed as an "application for Motor Vehicle Operator's License," and a printed small note with instructions, costs, and addresses of "Branch Offices." Apparently it was for renewal of her license, which would have cost her $3.00! The permit paid postage for the State to send it to her is marked "1 1/2 c. Paid." The only date I found was her license was about to expire the last day of February 1932.

I also found an exquisite art postcard of Mount Fuji. It looks like a print of an original piece of artwork, very spare, with French and Japanese on the back. I think i will scan it in and see what you all think. The trees are raised, almost like they were embossed. It is a little treasure.

After we got done with the books, we also rearranged the office, moving the library table, an old high boy that was my dad's, and Morgan's little art table. My Rog is a champion, today. I think I'll give him the rest of the day off.:-)
