I was just standing in front of our house, waiting for Bill to pull the car around and pick me up for our daily errands. I sighted something rare and lovely across the street.
Our little-girl neighbor, about eight years old, stretched up onto her tippy toes and placed a hardcover book in the lower right nook of the tree. Then, she hoisted herself up onto the left branch, fetched the book, and disappeared into the leaves of the buckeye.
And we thought they were extinct.
About Ginny O'Donnell
After reading a really nice obituary a few years ago, I considered what they'll write about me. "She worked all day, then went home and made supper." Except now, my husband has retired, so he makes the supper. Hm. I sound kinda lazy, but I'm always busy. You'll see.
Part 2: I like my original About Me, so I'm keeping it intact. But now I, too, am footloose. Let's see what happens next, shall we?
Part 3: Just to keep everything in perspective, I'm keeping parts 1 and 2 intact. Now, I am actively and happily NOT so footloose, doing my thing over at Cottage Door Press. And with it being off its training wheels, I will pick up my ginnygram pen again. Love!
Not extinct…mine still love and devour books. I just bought 4 from the Scholastic book fair. Set me back $55.00 (and I KNOW the mark-up), but they are BOOKS. Maybe I’m a dinosaur? I’m ok with that!
