I can't find my laundry card. [edited: we need the card to use the washer and dryer] I tore my place upside down looking for that card. I have to wait till Monday to get a new card from management. It's a good thing that I have a couple-of-days-worth of clean clothes.
So the library took one of my books from my hold. When we request library books, we have to include a date as to how long we want to wait for the books. Normally I add an extra month beyond the publishing date for my hold. Unfortunately the book that I wanted, Sworn to Silence by Linda Castillo, was very popular and finally the book was ready for me, but was taken away because my hold date had expired. Luckily I know the librarian and she was able to put me at the top of the list to get the book again. I did come home with Huckleberry Finished by Livia J. Washburn, Blood Game by Iris Johansen and Abandoned by Cody Mcfadyen.
Word of the day: PLEBEIAN - of a low social class
On this day in 1892, The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes by Arthur Conan Doyle is published.
October reading round-up: This month I've read 20 books and discovered 3 new-to-me authors: Lisa Bork, Lucy Lawrence and Heather Webber. I've read the following types of books: 10 cozy mysteries, 4 romantic suspense, 3 thrillers, 2 mystery/suspense and 1 romance.
I'm reading Sink Trap by Christy Evans, the first book in the new "Georgiana Neverall" cozy mystery series.

At first I wondered what a laundry card was but then I came to the conclusion it's card to allow you IN the laundry room. :)
Good thing about having clean clothes! Sworn to Silence was GOOD.
I always wish I could read as many books a month as you do! Will you be trying Heather Webber's new book due out next year? (Truly, Madly ?)
I seriously hope you like Sink Trap!
Have a nice evening.
Yippee! I found my laundry card this morning in the shirt that I wore down to the laundry room before I changed my clothes to go to my class. Now my routine will not be disrupted.
YAY!

I hope you found it--ok I see you did
Sworn to silence was excellent...I make the expiration date for my holds one year....

I'll do the tag thing later this week, as soon as I get caught up a little. Hubby is sick so I had to do all the kid stuff, then with the new kitty I fell behind on pages! Thanks for nominating me though! I think it'll be perfect for my Friday blog :-) Of course, everyone's blog I read has been nominated!
