Rode my bike to the library today, at first I didnt feel like going, but I just said I really want to go, so I just started pedalling.  Today I took some snacks, some nuts (trailmix).  I had a snack outside, then I went in and out a few times.  Then I went to a section I felt familir in from the other day. Then I walked a bit and found one of those little chairs on wheels you can move around, then I sat in the cookbook section for a while, I felt better, then I started to walk around, and I found quilting.  I walked around in a bit of a circle, then I found 2 books on cd to bring home. AFter about 2 hours, I finally checked out at the self checkout and biked home..it was quite fun!!!

That's such an amazing accomplishment minnesota!
You should honestly feel so proud of yourself. I am glad that you are able to appreciate time to yourself. It's such a good feeling to be able to sit and reflect, and enjoy all of your achievements.

Hi guys, i'm not going today, we had a little emergency at home when the fridge wasnt working this morning.  My husband had to come home from work and he was in a flap and now the kitchen is a bit of a disaster, but we got everything fixed.  I was hoping to leave earlier as its going to be 85F today ( 29C)(and its almost midday already) and I didnt want to walk in heat, especially since I have my womans monthly (sorry guys i'm sure you didnt need to know that) and I get dizzy in the heat. So my plan is to go tomorrow.
It might rain, but I will go anyway.  I think i'll work on my quilt today, i'll put a picture when i've done the patchwork. I am excited to go and get some books out. I enjoyed yesterday so much, it felt wonderful to get away from the house, by myself.  This was the first time since february that i've gone somewhere alone.

Good luck Minn.. .  I look forward to reading another great story...
 
I personally love the library and find solace among all the books :)  It's a great place to get lost in thoughts other than your own.
