Okay, so I had to bring Hubby up for an appointment. As it turns out, the facility has absolutely no place to wait. I can understand the business decision not to include a spot, but the individual providing information to the patient could have had the courtesy to explain this. However, I had intended to go somewhere for the 2+ hours, and then I remembered. A Barnes and Noble was about 15 minutes away and I haven’t been here in years. Despite being sorry that Borders didn’t survive, it is nice to know B&N did. I am having a coffee and resisting the pastries although I will get one or two for Hubby when I leave. He had to fast since 10 p.m., and something packed with sugar ought to make him smile later. Oh, this is nothing serious; just one of those routine things.

Anyway, I always get him magazines as stocking stuffers and will take care of that task. I mostly buy e-books now as we have packed all our bookshelves. I will also try to resist buying real books while here. Probably the only was to do that is not look. Continuing on……If I had thought about going to B&N last week, I wouldn’t have ordered one present for granddaughter to have under the tree when they arrive. There were only about 30 things I could have gotten her at B&N. I did buy one small thing and I do now have magazines. Hubby opted for the chocolate chunk cookie when I picked him up and the banana nut bread slice can be for later. I really wasn’t expecting traffic in Kendall to be so busy at the time on a Thursday. On the other hand, I haven’t been up for a while. At least the drizzle stopped on my way back to pick up Hubby and we seem to be done with that for the day.
