That's the dilemma. I have a daughter who'll probably really enjoy these books later. But I don't know if she'll actually like them or not in 5+ years.
They take up a lot of space on my shelf. I might re-read them, but I'm not emotionally attached anymore. The books helped me through my teens a bit. Which makes them just a nostalgia piece. -shrugs- I don't know what I'll do.
doing ebay wouldn't be great. My mom uses that site and it's a lot of work for her.
I've been cleaning for a bit now, and I just looked up one of my old book sets on my shelf.. and it's worth some money.. and now I'm sitting here wondering if I want to make an eBay to sell it. XD

The chapter was fun today, I was a bit confused initially, so I just sort of guessed. :d


@Another Movie Addict: hehehe, I worked in second-hand retail. People love leaving things in pockets! We had a used purse for sale for months, and I rotated it often around the store. Well one day, I shuffled through it and found a secret pocket. I ended up finding a necklace and was allowed to keep it. Luckily the purse sold the same day. I miss that shop. I still wear that necklace pretty often too. c:
@Another Movie Addict: omg, yeah! When I eventually get back into college, I'll go that route and buy books from there. :D
I was looking at my favorite fiction books, which are popular- so prices would be up a bit for those. :d
@0v7: I'm that annoying friend that reminds everyone to drink water, while not actually drinking enough water myself. XD I carry around a glass water bottle [it's got a thick plastic case to keep it from breaking], yet even with that in-reach, I don't remember to drink it. Water helps with anxiety and also helps with having meds in the system.
I've done so much research on anxiety.


@Another Movie Addict: Oh no! D: I keep seeing ads on my social medias for the goodwill bookstore. I finally clicked the website, but the books are almost the same price as the buy-new prices. So, I didn't stay on the site long. I thought it was a warehouse, so it's kinda cool knowing they have locations.

@Wildfire: I'm okay, just sort of.. anxious today. I had a lazy weekend and didn't do much around the house. So now I want to go into hyper-clean mode- but don't have the energy.
@Another Movie Addict: Ah! I'm envious of your job! <3 I worked at a library for a while and before that, I worked retail. I'd love to work a combination of salesmanship and books. C:


@0v7: unfortunately, not really. Other than to drink water. Which is basically the 'cure-all'. My dad has that side effect too, he.. handles it differently. He goes out and does chores to ignore the side effect. He's a big ol' farmer man. He can't sit still very long.
@0v7: Oh man, I hope you find a good med system. I wish I knew more about that stuff. :c I just know how to help with side-effects [with my bro & husband].

@Another Movie Addict: Retail? I feel like Saturdays in retail are always nuts! XD
@Another Movie Addict: What kept you busy? If you don't mind me asking. :)


@0v7: I hope so too! My brother has a disability that kept his meds changing constantly growing up. He's got a good system now. But I remember his withdrawals and struggles. D:
@0v7: Oh no! I can't imagine. I hope your feeling better now.


@Another Movie Addict: Busy is good, I think.
Morning! My weekend was long and Monday is hitting a bit hard.
How was everyone's weekend?
We'll see, It looks like public schools around here are opening up again. Which is a whole new topic. I'm not sure what i'll be doing on that front.
I just finished the little 3rd rpg game for the event. C:
We know, over time, they'll need their own tablets/ipads or whatever. I've got two kids. My son does well with school. but he does great when there's a motivator. He likes receiving things, where my daughter likes receiving sweets. She has a short attention span.
My husband brought up tablets. or a telescope or something along those lines. I don't know if we will or not.
