Thanks for the Invitation

Dear Leigh Anne,

I will be glad to join your party this March. It is interesting how I struggled to fill my analog basket. I guess I am used to typing on my laptop for and with my different writing groups.

It will be an opportunity to write in my different journals and read or catch up with reading one of the professional books I have either been given or invested in.

I will also bring a few of the books on my ‘To Be Read’ list.

My small Bible has to be in the bag. I have recently been reading the Bible on my phone which has its pros and cons. I know I miss underlining verses and writing dates on the pages.

I love to play Scrabble and any word games, so my Scrabble board game will have to be in the basket. I have tried playing online with people I do not know, but felt it was rather impersonal so gave that up.

My Sudoku puzzle book will keep me company, as it takes me ages to solve those. Just when I believe I have cracked it, it all unravels! It will be a great time filler.

I believe my analog basket is full now, with contents that will keep me away from scrolling.

Sincerely,

Juliette

    It will be a bookfest at this party! And I think many will be sharing favorite Bible verses, too. I can’t believe I didn’t add my Scrabble game- it has the board on a turntable- perfect for a party!

    I love that you did this in letter form. How I long to see your stack more clearly, even though my own list of books waiting to be read is too long! I will join you at the party for sure, soon!
